What’s disappointing is that Duke’s defense isn’t even good and we’ve only dropped 3. The defense hasn’t been good by any means but our offense has turned the ball over 3 times. It could get really, really ugly when we start playing the actually good teams on our schedule.
Will the staff feel like there are positives from Rickie’s game today to build on? It can take a few weeks to settle down but sometimes guys just aren’t good enough. It’s hard to figure out which it can be sometimes. The oline was poor in pass pro today but Rickie’s footwork was also just awful. He has missed passes that should have been made because his footwork was all wrong.
It will be interesting to see how Fran handles this. He hasn’t put in Luke Carney yet, which would indicate Fran is committed to Rickie Collins. If we are going to stick with Rickie, then we need to make some adjustments to our offense. He’s not Angeli.
