I have a friend who works on the FAMU equipment team and he has been around FAMU program his whole life. he has seen all the beatdowns in person Miami has given Famu as well as Ohio ST, Oklahoma and a lot others. so i wanted to get his prospective from this years team compares to previous years. here is the notes he gave me TIFWIW:

-Offensively they look as if they're having a hard time moving the ball. Gotta take advantage of a teams weakness.

-Duke Johnson isn't as shifty as before. The QB needs more time learning the offense.

- on the defensive side their coverage ability isn't good. The line didn't apply too much pressure. Not aggressive enough

- the qb can be somebody with the proper training. Idk if it's the offensive coordinator or what but that wasn't Miami

- we had 2 INTs on defense so that says something. We made a couple big plays on that secondary. Golden could be gone soon

His Prediction after looking at the schedule

- 4-8 or 6-6. Nothing over 6 wins

He added:

-and that special teams looks to be a issue. Two games two touchdowns

I then said Al Golden is the special teams coach

His response:

-wth they suck

So FAMU equipment guy is an expert on UM football?
You would probably get more cred on here if you just said that this was your take versus FAMU equipment guy.
Come on man.

and what makes you more of football analysis? at least he is at the games and can see whats going on. he gives an interesting view because he knows his team very well. I said TIFWIW. just because someone is at an FCS school doesnt make them know football any less. they just dont have great talent.

But................, the extra weight is going to prepare him for the NFL and enable him to carry 20+ carries a game and will have more durability in the 4 th qt in the trenches !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My asss to you soft shoulder *** fans... Duke is not duke,, plain and simple!

Hard to tell what "shiftiness" Duke has now because the OL has been creating scrums at the point of attack. He was never Barry Sanders.


As far as his D comments.

FAMU

0 Points
5 First Downs
114 Total Yards
6/17 89 yards passing
25 yards rushing 0.8 per
2/15 on third down



Blind man can see our offensive problems
 
You guys are poorly coached. It is obvious to anyone...well almost anyone, i suppose.

but by all means, keep golden.
 
Hey tork...

Im not going to take a guy on a team that lost to our team with our crappy offense by 34 any merit

Especially a FAMU equipment guy
 
Did he notice all this while fixing the snaps on the helmet from the kick returner Grace be headed?

We all know we have a lot of work to do on O but our Defense held them to 114 total yards. Not sure you can be more dominant. Didn't their QB also go out injured?

Our D looks 10 times better. We will find out a lot more in the coming weeks though.

Muschamp specialty is defense. The defense is far from poorly coached.

The offense is the issue and as HC the offense falls under his responsibility as well. If the offense is not fixed or shows tremendous improvement he will be fired. Pretty simple.

Dumbest post ever!

Spreading the opinion of the got-**** equipment manager. While we are at it, what did FAMU's band director think about our cheerleaders? I'd like his opinion.
 
Last time I remember seeing the game FAMU didnt do swat, nowadays every team in the country will get a big play or two. These boards are getting more and more negative everyday.
