I think one of the biggest problems the SU program has is the fact they do not have a QB that can make plays with his feet when receivers are covered down field or the pocket begins to collapse. Nassib looks lost in these situations and 95% of the time he simply holds onto the ball and takes a sack. I am really confused by the fact that Marrone refuses to use Kinder to run the wildcat, run the option, and/or bring him in the game just to change things up for a play or two.
What scares the hell out of me is that Marrone is one of many hard headed football coaches who refuses to change QB's during a game no matter how bad his starter is playing. I think that question will be answered next year. Will he use Nassib every play out of fear of creating a QB controversy or will he let Hunt get some snaps under center? I hopes it's the latter because the last thing we need to do is join the ACC with a QB who has never taken a snap at the D1 level. Only time will tell.
I don't know much about Hunt but I sure hope he is duel threat QB of the future because I don't think SU will ever have the type of talent on the OL and WR that will allow Marrone to run his pro style offense with a pure pocket passer. He compares his offense to the Green Bay Packers but they are loaded with skill players at WR, TE, and the OL but even their QB has enough foot speed to pick-up 5 or 10 yards when a play breaks down.
Don't get me wrong I am a big time Marrone supporte. I attended every luncheon and have missed football one game in the Dome in the last 20 years but the most disappointing thing is that Marrone put this team back on the map by beating WVU. This team had a chance to crack the Top 25 but in the last two weeks they regressed in every phase of the game. Why ?????
In my opinion (which means nothing
) the loss to UConn was inexcusable because they are one the only teams in the Big East where the Cuse has an advantage in terms of talent.
