Injuries for FSU game

Norvell is 16-16 at fsu. He has never had more wins than losses in his time there. Let's keep it that way.

 

That last sentence just sounds like more speculation.

Reminds me of my son's HS baseball team. Starting SS was rumored to be transferring at season's end, so the coach benched him midseason, never to play again for the team. To the kid's credit he stuck around. A very talented team never got out of districts.

As long as a player is on the team and practicing, he deserves to be considered for playing time. Otherwise, why hang around.

 

I would call the last sentence speculation based upon specific information...if that makes sense. Trent played vs South Carolina, certainly would have played vs Vandy had he not quit.

 

Jack Miller hasn’t taken a snap this season, right?

 

Correct

 

I guess it was too hard for you after all
Let's see if I can walk you through it.
Trent not starting is not the coaches quitting on him. Over 70% of the roster doesn't start. He was the backup and getting snaps in every game. Do you really think the staff just woke up one day and decided "let's never play Trent again"? They didn't quit on him

Some WR can flip between inside and out. There was no reason to move Ricky outside because we had two established returning starters outside and Ricky is a natural inside. X and Shorter were ahead of Trent with the previous staff and with this staff, he was the backup and a quality option. But you don't move the starter to make room for the backup.

As for Bowman/Douglas....this is nonsense. Caleb is a true freshman just getting his feet wet. The last thing you do is put him at a position he hasn't worked at whenhe is just getting going at his primary. It's unfair to him and the offense.

 

Here is the fact. Trent played in every game as the backup until whatever caused the separation occurred....when it was clear he was gone they quit playing him. After that he only played late in the USC game on senior day before formally quitting. He was the backup, and then doesn't touch the field. So you can continue to suspend belief and think that the WR coach, the OC, and the HC all just woke up one day and decided, let's never play Trent again.
Trent was already all but out the door when Shorter got hurt, and was totally out the door for losing X this week. He wasn't an option at that juncture.

 

Which is exactly what I said....did you not read the post you are quoting lol. He was playing as the primary backup in every game, then there was a separation and they quit playing him. He got a few garbage snaps on senior day then quit completely.

 

Spur Dog had very underrated defenses

Hoke was an NFL D-Coordinator, Strong has a great pedigree. Stoopsy is Stoopsy. Spur loved to see his guys eat, so we had a great deal of turnover.

Go Gators - beat the Noles!

 

Dream on!

 

Is that a losing attitude I detect. Believe in winning or hit the door.

 

If we don’t, next man up rams his head into the rock

 

AR needs to run in the first half for us to win. I think the only game where he did'nt run in the first half that we won was Eastern Washington.

 

Maybe his uncle told him to save himself for the NFL.

 

I’m sorry, I didn’t catch your name.
