Kam Kinchens

[NC_Canes_11]

If he plays his assignment he’s really really good. He did that today. Need him to continue doing that.

Going out on a little limb here but I think he will be the first Hurricane taken in the year that he enters the draft.

I've also seen a few of his interviews and like his composure and demeanor.

 

[Dude]

Biggest difference? When we were good there was always 4 or 5 Canes in thie picture going the other way with them. We played so fast as a team.

 

[TheU1984]

I had a few boners today but that was the largest.

 

[Home Slice]

Kam played a heck of a game today

 

[Canes519]

Was great to see him make plays in deep coverage, just missed one or two when he picked his spots on shorter routes too

 

[rascon]

Really happy for the kid. You could tell he was playing with flow and trusting his assignments and then using instincts at the appropriate moments.
DBs could be really good next year with him and Cormani leading the charge.

Also, Wes looked like he will be a problem for offenses in the future. Move JW to LB too where he can just focus on basics like tackling and pass rush and you will see a new JW i think.

 

[HurricaneKush]

Screwed up my under 44.5 bet with the pick 6 and I’ll never forgive him.

I was at the game and Kinchens was just great. He almost had another slant for an INT in the 2nd or 3rd quarter. He also is very comfortable with the play calls. He is really good. Not perfect and just finishing his 2nd season But he should be a pre-season All-ACC 1st team,

Kam’s late game INT return looked so much like Mo Sikes against UF and Rex Grossman that it is uncanny. Almost Identical route by the Receiver, same throw, same location on the field, same read by the safety and same result.

I expect so much from Kam. He makes so many plays for us.

Was glad to see him be more disciplined in the passing game. He can cover a lot of ground and make life tough on a quarterback.

If he was this disciplined against MTSU, I think we win that one. When he stays deep, he shows the ball hawk skills he displayed in high school.

Hopefully this is the game where he turns the corner. He’s made some bone headed selfish plays this season.

31 is our best linebacker. He should never come off the field.

 

[SayWhat]

Great game all over the field!

 

[TheSwagger1]

Couldn't watch much of the game today, but the dude has been one of my favorites since the day he committed.

 

[Samoan Souljah]

Wes cannot come off the field. Havent had a LB close like that since Perryman

I kept on scratching my head wondering why he was being sub out for 40 or 11. 31 gives me that Sean Spence feeling lol. He should start the rest of the way.

 

[CaneTheGaytors]

This is for all of the clowns that called Kam a bust and a JAG over the past few weeks.

Same goes for those that have been ripping Rooster all season and saying that he sucks and should transfer. Rooster in a legit offense would be deadly.

 

[JHallCanes]

Can't recall who it was but someone on this site had him as the least talented recruit in his class.Wonder how he sees it now.

I spent some time this off-season rewatching our games for the first time in….forever.

I watched a lot of Kam. For a freshman, he was sensational last year. It was really tough to watch him struggle this year because he’s just a better player than that. Awesome to see today.

 

[Caned Peach]

Had forgotten about Kenny Phillips but thought today that he may be the best ball hawk S we've had since KP and Reed. Not saying he's them. Only that he has a good nose for the ball. Today he played disciplined and maxed his opportunities. Game ball worthy for sure.

 

[Groz73Cane]

Those GT QBs were awful… easy money since they kept staring down WRs all game

JFC, yes they sucked, but give this kid his due. He stepped up. That is what we have been waiting for, someone to step up, stand up and stand out. Leadership by example. Long time coming.

Only really good players will ever make 3 INT’s in a D1 football game, and One returned 99 yards for 6!
This was an all-time game for a safety.

We play a lot of awful QBs - I wish someone would have 3 INTs every game.
