Va Tech Game...

[Ozcuse]

dino doesn’t count the guys on the field. It’s either a specific players fault or the coach that counts the players as we go on the field.

Every week he does this at the end of the half. At a certain point you have to see it’s him

 

[Orangefizz]

Reminder this is year six for Dino. He has no clue and this is not getting any better. We have good players on both sides of the ball but have a terribly inapt head coach.

 

[Mayhem_OJ]

We had 12 on the field

I’m guessing he didn’t see 85 run out late. That’s why he called the TO

 

[texascpa]

Kansas.

They're beating #3 Oklahoma right now

 

[Madbiker]

How the EFFFF do you call back to back timeouts from the 1 yard line with 8 seconds left?
Terrible coached team.

This is the confusion that constantly happens with Babers. They have no idea what play to run. Players don't know who is on and who is out. Clock running out. So they burn 2 TO's before running a play. Leaves himself with no more TOs so everyone knows they can't run and must pass. It's pathetic. And it happens almost every game.

 

[Finwad32]

Just terrible. Terrible. I don’t even know what to say. This team may gut out this win today, and god do I hope they do. But Dino Babers needs to go.

 

[Chris02M]

I feel so bad for these kids. Dino is horrible.

at some point the players have to play

How anyone can defend this anymore is beyond me. This coaching staff continues to be clueless with clock management. Dino has to go.

the clock management was fine there sometimes players mess up

 

[Orangezoo]

At some point you can't continue to have bonehead mistakes and point to the players or asst coaches. It's every game almost. And all of them winnable.

 

[JDubbin]

It’s just stunning that EVERY decision over the last 4 games has turned out to be the wrong one… over and over and over. Just how?!

We had the freaking ball at the 1 with 8 seconds & 2 timeouts, walk away with 0 points.

Halftime notes to self:

Sean Tucker is awesome.
Glad we have GS at quarterback.
Gonna have use some Qantas miles and to go to Australia to find a punter, (and maybe a special teams coach)

We have a pretty good soccer program.

 

[Ozzie0075]

Not having the players right out of the timeout and having to burn the last time out is just inexcusable. There literally is no reason or anything. It is a flat out failure to communicate clearly at that time. Truely cannot believe I just saw that happen.

Correct. This is 100% on the staff. I’ve never seen a group of coaches so unprepared. Sadly it’s costing the kids games.

 

[NineOneSeven]

Yeah, take the timeout to avoid 12 men on the field. Sure. WHY WAS THERE 12 ON THE FIELD.

 

[FloridaFan]

Another funny thing is even after having to blow a timeout for nothing having CJ out there we had to rush to the line with 7 seconds left cause we weren’t ready before we got saved with the VT timeoit

Once again we outgain and are losing.

 

[HRE Otto IV]

take a delay at the 1?

It is the 2 and yes. We didn't have time to run the ball. Backing up 5 yards gives more room to pass.

 

[BrooklynCuse]

Every game at the end of every half there is something that I have never seen before lol

 

[hoopsupstate]

I thought the pass to the end zone was pass interference.

 

[Shooter]

I’ve been hanging on to Dino but that one might push me over the edge. I can’t stop angry-chuckling. To quote the Joker: « I thought Dino’s coaching was a tragedy, now I know it’s a comedy. »

 

[CuyahogaCuse]

I dont post here very often, but I came on here just now to say that was the saddest display of football coaching I may have ever seen. He should be gone after that. And I take no comfort in saying that.

It was pure Gumpian … on par with 8 dives into the line from the one in overtime against Iowa.

But yeah. It was pretty bad.

Somebody tell Smyzt to read The Little Train That Could at halftime.

 

[sdhall01]

We should be out there wearing clown shoes

 

[ForCuseSake]

take a delay at the 1?

First and goal from the 6 with 2 TOs is less predictable to defend.

 

[Cusefan69]

 

[NineOneSeven]

I am absolutely sitting here in shock about what we just did. How many more times is this going to happen?

Syracuse has a lot of athletes that could've gone to a smaller school and continue their athletic careers. I'm dead serious when I say there is probably a better punter and campus that is playing intramurals or club something.

 

[BKCuse]

What sort of a P5 program doesn’t employ a special teams coach ???
