What proof do you have that your opinion is superior? Name calling is basically throwing a temper tantrum btw, sign of immaturity. I simply stated a NFL caliber athlete gave up on some plays last Saturday. Not a personal attack, actually a compliment to his true abilities

Not trying to sound rude here, but you really are constantly posting the same things over and over and over. We understand your position on the matter. It's okay to state them, but ever since the game you have posted non-stop on the subject and honestly your posts come across as whining and woah-as-me. This is the reason people are starting to go after you because every one of your posts are the same thing just worded differently.

Like BGS said, it's Wednesday so lets move on and talk about another subject. Maybe the upcoming team and the chance this team has at getting better with more practices and game time?

No one called you a name. Simply that your opinion is dumb, and wrong.

Someone posted about what their WVU buddy said about the long delay. He said WVU used the time to scheme, and UT used it to coach the individual players and units. We saw how different the second half looked to the first. I'm surprised more hasn't been said about the long pause in the action.

I don't think it changes the outcome, but it might have helped narrow the margin.

That was me. Obviously, none of know what went on in the locker room during that delay.
Holgorson was noted saying the exact same thing happened to him in his debut game at WVU. Long weather delay, they didn't have food for the players, conditions were bad, and they spent the entire delay "coaching". Said ever since, they've been prepared for that instance. Have plenty of food, let the players stay loose and chill, and the coaches use the time to scheme.

Think we’ll take some shots downfield to test those waters. We didn’t do that enough on Saturday.

Part of that had to do with the defense WV was playing. They took away deep and gave us the intermediate stuff.

When we did get open deep, JG missed some guys running free. We should improve there as the season moves along.

Doug Matthews saying what we all have been discussing. 22, 28, and 3 simply don’t need to play anymore. Thinks AT6 is the best DB already. He likes the offense. He thought the opening play, Kennedy was blocking for a run.

I usually give some credence to what Matthews' says, but he's wrong there. R. Johnson was the one that missed the call...he went right by his assignment to find a linebacker to block, which wasn't necessary with the play that had been called.

He didn't name-call. He said your opinion was dumb, not that you were dumb. You also told Bruin he had a primitive brain. Pretty similar to me.

I actually thought the Dline looked fine against a good offense. They ate blocks, and occasionally disrupted plays. They could be better, but were by far the best unit on D.

The safeties and linebackers were a complete mess. Those are the guys in this defense that need to be coming downhill finishing plays. It’s especially disappointing since there’s experience there.

Corners just looked young.

If Gucci is telling you to tone down the negativity it's probably time to do so. We all understand your opinion on the team and last weeks game. Let's move on...

Take what you are given and the first half was fine. First drive second half and had them for a third and I think 7 yds to go and gave up 3 big plays in a row for a TD and they got on a roll.

Reid is right there at the starting LB spot. He’s got a chance.

I doubt that. He’s behind Bituli, DK, Sapp, and Ignont at least there.

You talked him and Coleman up in the spring, but neither of those guys have really been in the mix.


I’m sure Reid will get some snaps this week if we take care of business, though.

Moving on, just wanted to see if anyone else was concerned with Warrior as well. I’m not known for tact often, and for that I apologize. Usually, if Brent speaks like that on a player it’s cause for concern.
