Nobody on here, at least that I've read, is suggesting that Skov is a bad player or shouldn't be playing. I would argue that everyone on here is very happy to have him. All I have read (and happen to agree with) is that some people would like to see Marshall used some more.
He's the most explosive bback we've had since JD. It would be nice to see what he can do, especially in a game like ND where we were struggling to sustain drives. How nice would it have been to see him pop a big run like he did against Alcorn? I'm not saying it would've happened, but it definitely wasn't going to happen with him getting one touch.
As far as sharing reps, 41-15 doesn't sound like sharing to me. The guy with 15 has ~40 more yards than the guy with 41 as well.
Don't take this as a knock on Skov either because I think he is a good player and a great representative of GT. I point this out merely to say that I would like to see the ball in Marshall's hands more than once in a game, especially is we can't get anything going. I think they can be used to compliment each other (like they were in the first game).
GTRX7, where did you see PJ suggest that Marashall has fumbling problems in practice? I saw where he said that he needed to practice better, but he says that about a lot of folks. This is probably my biggest beef with PJ. I understand the importance of practice, but some guys are just gamers. simething just happens when the bullets are flying and they turn it up. Others are practice all-Amreicans but freeze up under the lights (I'm not suggesting this about anybody on our team, just making a statement).
If Marshall truly is putting the ball on the ground all of the time, then I have no problem with him not playing as much. If it's something else, find plays that he can do well and find ways to get the ball in his hands. He's too explosive to be watching from the sideline the whole game.
