    This season was lost with losing that game at VT. There is no reason we shouldn’t have rolled into the Clemson game undefeated…with probably Gameday in town…and no matter that outcome, the exposure of that game would have been a tremendous boost to this program.

    We find out what kind of coach we have next year, with W/L ratio being only one metric.

    And enough of this imaginary Chuck history. There’s a reason why the only job he could get was with a Akron team coached by Terry Bowden.

    THIS (both parts). If Doeren is no good, we will fall apart. If he’s good, we will rise to the challenge, and you will be able to see the growth, even if’n we go 7-5 again (all 7-5’s are NOT created equal, obviously).

    And with all due respect to those who for some reason “feel the Bern” (THIS mofo is ready for Hilly-Bob), the market speaks volumes. With respect to Chuckles and now HWSNBN.

    I guess it is too late in the evening….

    If you recall, we lost Hakim Jones in the VT game….about mid way (memory) in the fist half. It was ALL uphill after that. We really had NO back-up or experience. THAT HURT….and his injury was a direct reflection of the loss.

    Can’t recall about the Louisville game, except we have been beaten by them in both 2014 and 2015. Seems like we just don’t match-up well.

    Too early to be analyzing 2016….wait until after spring practice and also the pre-season camp.

    Debbie will be reviewing DD’s performance and will take action if it is not up to her expectations.

    I personally am looking forward to the Belk Bowl and not dwelling on the past results…

    Expect a down year??? Really, you mean we lose to Wake and BC??? How more down can a less than horrible (which is what we’ll be) team be? Not concerned about the QB position…while Jacoby did nothing to hurt us he sure didn’t exactly make huge plays for us this year either. Our RB’s should stil be very productive and the rest of the team should at least remain to hold it’s own. While I WILL NOT renew my season tickets out of general disgust from the L-Ville and UNC game I’m not worried about much of a drop off from a 7-5 team.

    Our problem this year is our offense was one dimensional. Stop the running backs you stopped our team. VT and Lville were both downpours negating the advantage of running back. They couldn’t cut and make people miss. This isn’t an excuse just an observation, that we need the deep threat down the field to really be effective offensively. I haven’t been a fan of Canada’s since he got here and I am still not.

    As for schedules, I don’t hold that against DD as he inherited this schedule. On the bright side we seem to have a lot of home and away agreements coming up with power 5 conferences, so the schedule thing shouldn’t be an issue too much longer.
