Message: [QUOTE="SoBristol, post: 98090, member: 485"] Another way to phrase this -- DC3 was tough as nails and an NFL caliber running back; Hogue & Smith were two of the better linebackers at SU in the past 8 years. Hogue was good enough to win national player of the week twice. With that talent in the mix, we eked out some close low-scoring wins last year, but still faded in November. Look, I think we have good guys who have leadership traits (Kevyn Scott and Adam Harris are student athletes who will be successful in life), but who aren't going to be playing on Sundays. If you are playing kids who aren't ready for the roles (most of our LBs; some of our OL), you can't expect confidence or pep talks to carry the day. Coach has to wins some recruiting battles. [/QUOTE]
