Hurricane Football Politics *Best ACC LBS?*

Id take saban with any of our qbs... look what saban did with hurts now imagine if hurts was with richt

We'll ignore the 5-star O-line, the abundant talent at the WR and RB positions as well. And for all of that, Hurts isn't exactly a polished QB. And please don't use his W/L record. Because Bama also has an elite defense as well.
 
Agree with you on the defense. Shaq is definately overrated. I am not 100% on Rosier. Kosi still doesn’t look comfortable in the pocket to me. I don’t believe DJ is necessarily better than Homer. He is better option in our current scheme with OL we have. DJ’s lack of speed takes away the homerun threat Homer gives us. We need both of them playing to get what they both give us. I did post ways to improve the running scheme (in spite of the OL) that would maximize both their strengths.
Kosi hasn’t had enough time playing in actual games to say he doesn’t look comfortable in the pocket..
 
OP got negged a lot but made some good points.
1-Rosier should’ve been urged to graduate. QB race should’ve been NKosie v Cade since Spring. Big **** up when we let Jack Allison leave and let Rosier stay.
2-DeeJay should get starting reps but I like half and half. I’d run DeeJay earlier, wear down defense, then bury them w Homerun Homer and Lingard.
3-Yes. McCloud should be our number two MLB. I’d keep Finley and D Smith at Striker. Mike Smith shouldn’t be on field much.
4-I think Carter and Hall should be our number two safeties and play more. But agree Dean shouldn’t get reps over Blades or Ivey.

Should they have kidnapped him to force him to stay?
 
We don't have the depth to play for a National Championship! Are talent level also needs to increase! I could name several teams that talent level is better the ours.

You realize we played man all game and blitz and their receivers started eating in the 2nd half. Mike Jackson all of a sudden lost all his ball skills.
 
McCloud barely played vs Toledo. What they need to do is cross train him at wlb and mlb so when we are using striker/4-2-5 he can be the first linebacker off the bench after quarterman and Pinckney instead of it being mike smith who can’t run, tackle, and takes horrible angles....

That’s the same thing I said bc the writing was on the wall that the staff was moving away from a true strong side linebacker role.

McCloud should’ve been crossed train to play both MLB and WLB imo so he can still get reps when the striker position is on the field. Much better than having Mike Smith and Jennings on the field at the same time.

Facts
 
Gene Chizick won a National Championship........let that sink in
He won a national championship because he had Cam Newton at QB. Cam made everyone better around him. Including the defense. You need to wait a few more years before you start passing judgment. We are moving in the right direction. We should truly be at national elite playoff level by 2020 or 2021. If we are not in the mix at that point, then your statement may be valid.

You misunderstood my statement, I was defending Richt. Dude said coaches like Richt cannot win championships, I pointed out that's false because worse coaches like Chizick/Coker have a ship.

I agree that having another QB on the roster would be beneficial but there's no evidence that says Allison would have been any better than Rosier has been. His high school numbers were very Sitkowski-esque. Big guy, big arm, no accuracy.

Everything else makes sense to me. Anything to keep 35 and 20 off the field. I'm really disappointed in Mike Smith. He looked like a solid reserve linebacker two years ago but like the rest of our linebackers, has only seemed to regress.
 
Gene Chizick won a National Championship........let that sink in

Chizik was smarter and better than Richt for 2 reasons:

1. Unlike Richt, Chizik didn't recruit Cam Newton to play Tight End.

2. Chizik won a NC with Cam Newton (#1 NFL Draft Pick). Richt didn't win ANYTHING with Matt Stafford (#1 NFL Draft Pick).

LET THAT SINK IN.....

LET THAT SINK IN.....

1) When Richt recruited Newton, no one knew at the time that he was going to be the QB that he was. Newton recruited (paid) Cam to Auburn once he was established as an elite DT.

2) Didn't realize that all #1 draft picks were the same. Cam and Stafford are completely different QBs. Cam's game translated far better in college than Stafford's game.

Now you are making excuses. Cam Newton was one of the most highly recruited quarterbacks coming out of high school. Why do you think Urban Meyer wanted him so bad. ****, everyone that played for the Gators at the time said that Cam Newton was light years better than Tim Tebow. Cam foolishness cost him at Florida. So let's not act like Can was not viewed as an elite quarterback. Richt simply screwed up.

Richt had Matthew Stafford, Knoshawn Moreno, AJ Green and others on the same team and he still could not win anything. Gene chizik simply had Cam. And won a national championship.
 
Shaq has been down right horrible this year. That’s a fact. Don’t really see how on earth he is being mentioned to leave early. Also I’m fairly sure he won’t test that well.


Thank you !!! atleast somebody can be real and keep it 100.... Coaches need to stop praising him and hold him accountable if we ever want to take the next step forward
 
(I think with other coaches we could easily be playing for a natty last year and this year)

Who are these other coaches and what are their current salaries and the salaries of their assistants? Also, is it your opinion that last year the National Championship could have easily been won with Rosier or Sherriffs? OR are you saying that N'Kosi Perry was a National Championship winning QB who has been wearing a redshirt and threw a pick to Savannah State?
