Nirv, have you ever played a sport any sport in your life? Not that i need to justify anything to you but for the record i was recruited to play two sports in college, football and basketball. I went to school on a full bball ride . Back in the day i was known as a shooting guard. Today a 2. In HS i played QB and CB. As to our play calling this year there are so many examples i could give you but i will just throw a few out to satisfy your request.  Some of our calls in the Redzone have been very questionable. The pass to Foster would be my best example. Using Smith on a critical fourth down run would be another. Not going for two in the LV game. I could provide you many examples of individual calls that are questionable at best.  Individual calls however are not our biggest issue. My main concern is what seems to be a lack of feel for the play calling. Great OC's have the ability to create a rythm for the O. We saw this in the WV game.  Doug and or Hack just dont seem to have a true feel for the flow of a game. Too often we are in a flow and than we call a " What" was that play. I would put the Foster slant in that catagory.  The other issue i have with our play calling is an inability to make in game changes quickly. Wake is a very good example of that. Granted first game so the guys get a pass but it seems to me that when we need to make adjustments we are at best very slow to respond. Shafer on the other hand is excellant at this.  Now a question for you. What is your opinion of our play calling this year? I would like to understand why you are so comfoirtable with it.
