James Vollono (ST coordinator)

[Lukeyloo]

E Rob got shredded after how our D performed against Ohio, so it’s only right that Vollono does too.

That was the worst ST performance by a Cuse team that I can remember. I mean AWFUL.

By my count:
• blocked FG
• blocked punt
• kickoff OOB
• onsides kick recovered by GT

That’s certainly fair. Nearly cost us the game.

 

[Mchandl8]

Yeah it was bad. I want to see how they rebound

 

[SUFan44]

Wasn’t great last week either.

 

[Lukeyloo]

Not to mention we haven’t had a shred of punt return coverage in either game this year. If this stuff doesn’t improve, Vollono’s time here will be short.

 

[Nick44]

Denaburg is going to cost us a game this year. He’s not good enough. Also not his fault that his predecessor was an all time great. But still. Not good enough.

 

[StLouisCuse]

Vollano has some serious work cut out for him. This type of performance from his unit two weeks in a row will not fly under Fran's watch.

 

[rocklloyd]

Fran ripped him last week on the sidelines. Was calmer this week but stuff needs to change on ST’s

 

[Archimedes]

The bye is well-timed for our specials coaches.

 

[rrlbees]

I’d ask for his keys tomorrow morning. At this level you can’t have that stuff going on. It was a disgrace.

Said it in the game thread, didn’t think it was an overreaction then and don’t think it’s an overreaction now. One of the worst special teams performances I’ve ever seen.

Agreed.blocked kick. Blocked punt. And an embarrassing onside kick coverage.

Separately, good lord did Villari have a bad game not counting blocking.

 

[CA Monk]

I believe they can fix the blocked punts and field goals, it’s the punt return blocking that bothers me. Peña can spring one if he’s given a seam.

 

[ElwoodJBlues]

On the punt there were 3 different GT players who were there to block the kick. No idea what the heck Diggs and Villari were told to do on the onside kick, but it was bad.

Villari could be most overrated player on this board since the Joe Donnelly days. Donnelly was a cross between Kellen Winslow and Mike Ditka if you were on the board back then

 

[CanadianSU]

Good time for a Bye week.

 

[Finwad32]

As far as Pena as return man… at this point I think he’s too valuable on O. After watching him get smacked on the punt return early I thought do we really need this guy back there on PR’s?

 

[rrlbees]

No I’m not. lol.

Also a great punt returner in Pena and he’s been able to do nothing because there is zero blocking. I’d have to watch again but it looked like 2 XPs almost got blocked.

And still we beat a ranked team. Very impressive, despite all those errors.

So much room to grow.

Yeah and good luck hiring another ST coordinator after you canned one 2 weeks into the season.

 

[Orangello]

Vollano means shakey gnocci in Italian

Promote from within. Or hire you and I as co-coordinators.
