Message: [QUOTE="SoBristol, post: 324700, member: 485"] So, depth has to help. Other factors -- well, I will remember that GROB, with all his warts, was talking positive in late season 2008. Always -- we are getting better and it will soon show. And, the team put on its best performance (in a horrible year, 3 and 8) in November, at Notre Dame, with Bailey subbing in and getting around 120 yd rushing. It didn't hurt that GROB kept that positive attitude, despite knowing he was about to get the boot. In November, Doug has sometimes let negatives get in his way. We don't have enough kids to practice; this kid is banged up; this didn't go right. He could say -- in November, we don't need contact drills anyway; our frosh and sophs are now ready to step up and here is their opportunity. He could add some spice and excitement to the offense; and in fact, he did that in his first year. [/QUOTE]
