Come on guys, don't give Butch such a hard time about not playing Berry on offense the last 3 seasons. We've really needed him to return 1-2 kick offs per game and to be our 3rd string safety that never sees the field. Cut jones some slack, would ya?

Not playing Berry?
How about not playing Kelly? Prior to aTm do you remember him getting any meaningful reps? Yet, we're to believe Hurd was a distraction? Butch could have played Kelly at meaningful times and taught Hurd a lesson. Now, all of the sudden, Kelly is the best thing since sliced bread?
No matter how you cut it, it's evident Butch has done nothing to maximize his offense. With Kamara and Kelly, Hurd could have been playing some H-back and wreaking havoc in the passing game.

People have been clamoring for Berry on offense since he stepped on campus, and now it's a great idea? Burch isn't handling his roster well, not handling media well and not handling the fans well.

I'm one of the guys that's been screaming from the mountaintop for 2 seasons now that Kamara should be getting way more touches than he has, so I certainly understand what you're saying. My comment on Berry could've applied to any number of talented players on our roster who pretty much never get a sniff of playing time outside of special teams.

For example, right now I wanna see Nigel Warrior at safety. I don't care that he made a mistake last week, couldn't care less. He's incredibly athletic, aggressive and passionate.....we need all 3 of those things on the field right now. I want the kids with the highest upside playing these last 4 games....mix em in, let em compete, see what happens.

I have always thought he is going to be a dynamic running back in the NFL and unfortunately we have never used him.

One criticism I have with the coaches is playing players in the right position. Tyler Byrd should be a corner. Jennings is our best WR, but I always thought he looked like an NFL Safety.

Hmmm...I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say it'll be at RB

I figure reverse, or a decoy thereof.

I'd like to see twins left, Berry and Jennings. Fake the reverse to Berry, then Jennings goes behind and takes it. TE drags across left to right to catch the pass about 15-20 yards downfield. Yes I know a drag is a short route but call it whatever.

After we run it for a TD, Hurd calls CBJ and asks to come back and play TE for us.
