Here's a warmup for the weekend. Shout out to @canes1996 for the heads up!!!

Have only rewatched the first half so far. This was actually one of the few “good” games from the Nix era. Neat to see a few similarities in offense personnel (some speed/power combos at RB, unproven receivers) but clearly TVD is better at this stage than either Marve or Harris. On defense, I would LOVE to have even the young version of McCarthy and Spence, although I would argue Bissainthe is the closest thing athletically to Spence since that time.

Anyway, this is a game that has long been missing from YouTube for some reason and saw that it recently was posted. Thanks to @Hoyacane1620 for always providing awesome content to this site!

Cooper was a beast. Crazy to think we should've had McCoy too..

Cooper = Yearby = Parrish. Same respect people have for Parrish now should be how they feel about Yearby/Cooper.

Very similar players, very similar production.

Cooper had happy feet....Yearby had that jump step that I loved.

I was a freshman that year, was a fun game, one of the few that year.

Oops, I’m mixing up with 2007

I remember watching it on ESPN3 in Chicago thinking it was the coolest thing in the world since most Canes games were not really available here in Big 10 country.

Let’s wait and see on that.

Let’s wait and see on that.

That's not a knock on Parrish. I think Cooper/Yearby were a little better than how they generally seem to be remembered.
