Message: [QUOTE="SU94, post: 796290, member: 202"] Few random thoughts … · SU, Shafer, players, athletics department & alums/fans should not feel like they have to apologize for beating WFU, 13-0. I am just seeing/reading too much about only scoring 13 points. WFU is a pretty decent team with a fantastic coach. Unfortunately, injuries have hit their squad hard. BTW, I bet Virginia Tech wishes they won, 13-0, on Saturday at BC. We won a conference game by 2 touchdowns. Don’t feel bad about that. · I visit this board nearly every day. Great/passionate fans. One thing that too many here don’t acknowledge is that player performance is rarely stagnant. Players of college age most often get better as time moves on. They mature. They grasp the mental side of the game. So, it is tough for me to believe that Terrel Hunt is a bust. I think the odds tell us that he will be better in ’15 than he was this year. And in ’16, he’ll likely be a tick better than ’15. Of course, injuries can happen and positive development is not universal, but the grass is not already greener on the other side. This is why, outside of injury, I think TH should continue on the rest of the way in 2014. It sets things up nicely for ’15 and beyond. · Would still love to move Kendall Moore back to tackle. But I am not at practice on a daily basis. Seems like he would be quite a talent there. · I’d feel a lot better about Maryland game if they were not coming off the bye week, as we were last weekend against WFU. · For those complaining about the ACC refs and the pass interference, you are obviously right in a vacuum. But be careful. We got a gloriously generous spot on a 3rd and 1 near midfield on our first scoring drive. Would have likely punted (PTG lose a half yard, but we got the first down). And I am not certain that Johnson really intercepted that ball. That tipped ball may have hit the turf (would have admittedly been tough to overturn). But I don’t remember the refs even getting called for replay in the aftermath of the INT. · I am excited by Johnson’s play. But don’t sleep on Micah Robinson’s contributions either. He’s played pretty darn well. · I’d love to see SU try to get involved with UConn verbals 6-1 ATH Justin Noye (*** from Rochester) and 6-7 OT Chasz Wright. · High of 58, partly sunny and no rain in Saturday’s forcast in DC. Take it and run (Jerome!) [/QUOTE]
