Our team fell apart in the 2nd half of the year because of attrition and injury. Dino and leaders like Dungey had our non ACC calibre talent playing over their heads and it wasnt going to last. Its not a lame excuse, dino inherited a mid tier AAC team from FHCSS. Anyone who argues that clearly doesnt see our lack of depth at, well, every position. Its hard winning with undersized players and/or 18/19 year olds.

Its clear that we need depth at every single position. Something we do not have at any position. But guess what Dino’s been doing? Recruiting and redshirting depth at nearly every single position.

Dino’s not a magician. We were blessed to have leaders like Dungey, Ish, Erv, Parris and Zaire play WAY over their heads and embrace what was unfair to ask of them. These guys put it all on the line every snap and allowed us to squeeze by and still be a fun team to watch. Could mention several others as well.

Now we have Dino’s recruits taking over. We return a good, to be great d line. Moe Neal kicks ace, strickland looks much improved in my opinion this year. We will have competition with ACC level talent at every position including quarterback going into next year.

These incoming freshman and returning players have a very special opportunity to compete and earn themselves playing time and I am very excited for the off season and ‘18.
