Lorenzo Lingard Jr. IS HEALTHY....

50+ years a diehard fan and know the coaching staff knows tons more about x’s and o’s and the talent on hand than I do. Also know the results have been bad and getting worse for some time now and the expert (or loudest or most insistent) posters have been blaming staff and administration for perhaps a decade, or more.

The current staff offered promise (explicitly, and implicitly in that they were mostly new and different than the prior staff) so seemed right to give them a chance, and the benefit of the doubt. Now here we go again; in fact things worse than ever and seems the current staff and admin are perhaps dishonest as well as woeful.

One would like to think an effective and expert AD would gauge the situation and make necessary changes; with the admin’s full support. But that obviously isn’t happening. I don’t think I realized until now how important it might be to get Blake James and his cronies replaced; until then it seems no amount of criticism constructive or otherwise is going to accomplish anything.

You can play in FOUR games and still have the redshirt intact. Lo played in one game prior to tonight. Tonight made two games out of four that he would’ve been permitted to play in under the redshirt rules.

This staff is so bizarre, it’s mind boggling.

This is not an attitude issue. I watched him on the sidelines all game. He was engaged. He was pumping up his teammates. As mentioned he helped 74 off the field. He was constantly stretching and keeping himself ready. Yet his number was called once. Robbery Burns is no world beater. There’s no way he’s better then Lo. Of all the stupid things that happened yesterday, this was the dumbest. I feel bad for him.

Trust me man I know, that's the nature of this fanbase nowadays, it doesn't matter who it is or the reason, if you're not worshipping at the altar of Diaz you'll get ripped to shreds. They do the same thing to recruits, they'll attack & tear down anybody in order to protect the coaches from criticism.

Lo is one of the best kids on the team, won't find a more humble & harder worker than him, by far one of the best kids in that locker room & that's directly coming from multiple teammates of his who are with him everyday on the team. But the fans don't care, they want the players to hush their mouths & never say anything that's not praise of the staff & what's really crazy is Lo never does say anything, he goes along with everything they tell him to even if it's at the detriment of his own career.

He's about as close to the ultimate team guy as you can get, but people on here don't wanna hear that, they refuse to believe that Holy Diaz is incapable of ******** a kid over like him so they just don't accept the truth of the matter & in the few instances where Lo decides to voice his frustration they unload & attack, when he didn't do anything to deserve it in the first place. Then if he decides to transfer, they'll say he's weak, soft & a quitter, when that's nowhere close to his character at all.

Trust me Tweed, I know...

Burns look good. But we should be running an uptempo offense and be getting everyone carries. Enos doesnt play to our strengths and his *** needs to go.
 
What exactly was the point of playing him yesterday but refusing to hand him the ball? Can’t fall back on the stupid “he’s wearing a brace” or “he’s limping” or “you can’t play him in the rain” lines of bullshyt.

I said a couple weeks ago on here that they didn’t give him the ball the last few weeks because if he tore off some big runs they’d have to answer questions about why they didn’t give him the ball more. I’m sticking with that theory.

Enough with this coach dyck sucking narrative. He’s one of the toughest hardest working kids on the team. He’s exactly the type of kid who excels at picking up pass rushers.

If a tough smart hardworking kid like him can’t pass block then that’s an even bigger indictment on the coaches.

I could be wrong (since I didn’t go back to rewatch the play I remember Lo in for), but he was lead blocking for Burns and didn’t Burns just kinda run into his back? Either way it’s unfortunate that that was the only play he was in for after Cam got injured.

This coaching staff sucks so hard

Burns was god awful pass blocking so the whole “ Lo can’t pass block “ bs is out the window. It couldn’t be worse.

Manny is a bad coach. Doesn't change the fact that he isn't getting a single carry. I could be wrong but I've been in the "he might just not be that good" camp for a while. Just an opinion and I'd love to be wrong, kid loves the program clearly.

This is the same staff that would only give Greg Rousseau a handful of snaps in the beginning of the season. Talent doesn't always equal playing time with these guys. 🤷🏾‍♂️

@dsddcane & @Tweed don't even waste your energy trying to explain anything to these morons, this board is ripe with Manny Worshippers & no matter who tries to tell them there's a whole bunch horse**** nonsense going on with this staff they'll never believe it.

In their eyes, the Coaches are Gods & it's their job to worship the ground they walk on & will attack anyone who dares challenges the almighty word of Diaz, Enos & company.

No need to even go back forth with them fellas, all they're doing is grasping at straws to make excuses for the staff, it doesn't matter what yall say, they're going to spin it & blame the players & any other rational fans who can clearly see this sh*t has hit Defcon 1.

Those of us that aren't retarded know what's up, we see what's happening & it's complete & total bullsh*t.

They played a walk-on over Sam Brooks. I've seen enough.
