SoFlo Stars Responding to TOUGH coaching

Nov 14, 2022

Series:

Kam Kinchens had a historic game with 8 total tackles & 3 Interceptions 1 which was returned for a 99 yard TD.

We have all expected greatness from Kam since his days at MNW. Earlier in the year vs MTSU, UNC his eyes got him in trouble leading to multiple BIG plays even though in both games those same eyes lead him to a INT. The staff challenged him to continue to be aggressive but within the structure of the defense to limit the risk. Coach Cristobal when watching film late at night stated "I think I have the building to myself and then I see kam it's like he is trying to outwork me"

Jaylan Knighton has been electric in a canes uniform however as canes fans know he can be prone to Ball Security issues. After 3 fumbles in 4 games the coaching staff sent a message to rooster by sitting him all UVA game and only 4 carries vs FSU (one went for longest run of the season for 45 yards). With Parrish out vs GT the team leaned on Rooster who showed his explosiveness while running with TOUGHNESS & PHYSICALITY but most importantly TWO HANDS on the football at any point of contact.

This was great to see from Knighton. Would've been very easy to sulk and pack it in.

But he stuck it out, obviously is working on his ball control, and had one of the better games of his career. Gotta root for him.

The kids aren't playing for one coach mote than the other.

Its not that they never gave up for Manny.

Theyre lifelong football players. They know what it should look like.

When they know that the gattis offensive scheme and play calling is so bad that there is literally 0% chance of them winning, they give up.

Any sane person would. No point risking injury. It sucks but it's reality.
