I didn't see much football last week - just too emotional/distracted.
Did catch most of the UM-OU game.
I've said we are 2 years away - at least. That seems to be true.
Randy has the team headed in the right direction, I think. He just has a bunch of lazy, not so talented players on the roster.
We also have a brand new Def. coordinator (Tim Walton), and a 2nd year OC (Patrick Nix). Adding a brand new head coach means growing pains.
Miami's QB play just flat out sucks major balls. Wright and Freeman are beyond repair.
I'm hoping freshman Robert Marve from Tapma, FL can get healthy and play. We'll need him to have experience heading to the Swamp for the 2nd game next year.
(I don't see Freeman starting next year - Wright is a senior and will be gone.)
We are bad at WR. Way young at LB.
I was disappointed in the defensive effort - our bread and butter this year supposedly. I saw no adjustments with one corner getting burned, repeatedly.
I suppose I chalk that up to a brand new DC - Shannon hasn't gotten involved with the def. signals from what I've heard.
All isn't lost. I think the Texas A&M game next Thursday will probably give a clue as to what to expect down the stretch. We obviously aren't a top 15 team - but really only GaTech is in the ACC (IMO).
If we can show some resolve and win - should give a kick-start down the stretch in the ACC. And let us keep the recruiting successes we've already had.
Lastly - didn't see VT-LSU (or very much of it). Was very impressed with the highlights I saw mid-week.
Didn't know Boobie Miles had that in him for a big early season game.
And - RD must be hurting as much as I am with his team's performance last week. USF has a good little team. Levitt is a good head coach. But - to lose at home, hmmmmm.
