The bad news bears before Walter Matthau showed upIf we were a baseball franchise and we've just played the Yankees, Dodgers and the Braves, what are we? The Twins? The Padres? The Royals?
I don't agree with or understand some of those coaching decisions you just described...but if we are being real, none of those things cost us the games! If we were winning, no one would even mention those things. We need to focus on the obvious, which is we are talent deficient relative to the teams we are playing... and we are talent deficient for a lot of reasons that go well beyond who the coach is..Well, let's say you are 100% correct. That still doesn't explain that the Head Coach doesn't understand the score during the game. You can't punt last week. You just can't. You can't call for a meaningless FG when you are down 21 pts. The messages to the team are clear. I quit. And it's not just those games. It's week in and week out. Are you saying that you think Dino is doing a good job under the conditions that he is working under? Because there was nothing good about his coaching over the last 3 weeks. Out talent is clearly lacking. His job to get better talent by the way. But so was his coaching in my opinion.
GT didn’t do much at all, Miami was a turnover machine and didn’t Wake score 7 against Clemson? Not saying we are going to walk over anyone but they all stinkGT v Miami, BC v FSU, Wake v Clemson.
VT gave FSU a game, a whole heck of a lot more than Cuse did anyhow.Watching VT and WF. Neither are anywhere near the last three teams we played. Both are rather pedestrian.
So did BC. Should we just cancel our next two games?VT gave FSU a game, a whole heck of a lot more than Cuse did anyhow.
Gotta score TDs to get up bigNo problem if it’s BS he wanted to save his guy for the rest of the year and game was over. We haven’t seen Shrader healthy down the stretch. If we get up big any of the next 5 games he should be yanked ASAP too.
Sure, we can ask for more...Like more talent! The better teams are beating us because they have better talent...Their guys were catching balls in traffic and just running away from our guys. Speed, size, strength all over the field...multiple players...you contrast that with the Cuse. It is very clear and extremely hard to watch, but we can keep asking for better results...sure, why not.Cuse has been outscored 81-10 in the last two games. Stop with this, we actually don’t expect to beat two good teams in UNC & FSU but is it too much to ask for a little more? Bad take.
We can't compare ourselves to Duke, they have way more positives from a recruiting standpoint and way more money....I lived in Alabama, when Syracuse discovered this QB from the Mobile area that was under recruited. He was interested in Syracuse...until Duke got involved. He is now the starting QB for Duke and an NFL first round prospect. We missed on him and got Schrader. My point is we lost out to Duke on a talented QB...before they started winning.Why do we have to fall back? Duke didn't. We need to believe that we can do better. If this is our max and we believe that we are just cashing checks...and sadly I think the school is happy doing just that.
He also routinely under delivered when we actually had top end talent. When you look. back it’s a shame we didn’t do better with some of the players that came through the program.Coach P was fired after making a bowl.
Beck as Head coach??...LOL...He has not come close to providing us the kind of offensive leadership that we were hoping for...Babers isn't calling the plays, Beck is!Do it now. Make Beck the temp head HC and see what he can implement in the next two weeks. The o-line will still be a major problem , but anything is better than this.
ThisI got scolded for suggesting it was possible Purdue isnt very good this year after our win. It’s very tiring being called a bad fan/Debby downer when you are trying to have honest discussion of our team.
i don’t think we are as bad as the last 2 games, I just don’t think we are good, at all.
Ok so who can we compare ourselves to if we can't match up to the tremendous football legacy program of Duke?We can't compare ourselves to Duke, they have way more positives from a recruiting standpoint and way more money...I lived in Alabama, when Syracuse discovered this QB from the Mobile area that was under recruited. He was interested in Syracuse...until Duke got involved. He is now the starting QB for Duke and an NFL first round prospect. We missed on him and got Schrader.

Did he call the FGBeck as Head coach??...LOL...He has not come close to providing us the kind of offensive leadership that we were hoping for...Babers isn't calling the plays, Beck is!
We also lost out to them on his backup, who’s from NY.We can't compare ourselves to Duke, they have way more positives from a recruiting standpoint and way more money...I lived in Alabama, when Syracuse discovered this QB from the Mobile area that was under recruited.

You would think SOME kid(that’s actually good)has the balls to come to SU and be a hero. Tell me a kid that comes here and turns this dumpster fire around WOULDN’T get drafted? There’s gotta be someone(who’s actually good)who WANTS this, no?We better hope LeNorris Sellers enters the portal because Wilson is not the answer.
You are missing the point...I doubt very seriously, that there are plenty of schools with less or similar funding in the ACC!!! Our position would be different if we were in a North East or Eastern football conference playing schools with similar geography. We have to go head to head with too many warm weather schools. It is not just about playing in a dome...it is also about enjoying the warm weather year round and strolling campus seeing half dressed coeds. Visit Clemson...visit Miami, visit Florida State, you may not want to leave.I respectfully disagree with everything you said. There are plenty of schools that play in the cold and don’t have a dome haha. I’ll evenly look for the stats, but there are schools with less or similar funding that aren’t inept.
