Still something that the coaches are largely responsible for. Can't turn the ball over if you are sitting on the bench. After multiple games of seeing the same QB mistakes, Cristobal should have had Williams ready to go as soon as the offense struggled. Would have been easy to salvage TVDs reputation so he could conceivably come back later this year or maybe next season if he got his head straight.
If Cristobal pulled TVD after a couple series against NC St, all Cristobal had to say in the post game was that TVD has been playing through pain, but he's too much of a competitor to ask for a break so Cristobal had to protect him from his own competitiveness. Maybe some fans would see through it but it would protect the kids ego. Now if TVD gets benched its clear to everyone (and TVD) that he's probably not playing another game in a Canes uniform. Its bad coaching and player management.
