I said after the Wvu game that Duzz continued support of Jerk risks losing the team. Every other position has to produce or they sit. When you claim it’s a completion every week and give the guy playing the most important position on the team a pass for putrid play the line about putting the best players in the field rings hollow
Until the VT game I thought the D was Ok. They didn’t show up at all against VT. While I think the talent is way overrated they are good enough to shut down a crappy offense like VT. In the second half they simply pitched the ball left and right and repeatedly got to the corner. They raved about the DL prospects and the DBs and they’ve been average at best.
Really need to hope Sparty has a brain fart and hires him away because Pitt isn’t firing him for at least another year. This program is a dumpster fire and it’s only going to get worse unless Duzz suddenly gets his head out of his behind
“ you can’t play the backups. They are worse than the starter”
“What evidence have you seen to teach this conclusion?”
“Veilleux fumbled that one jet sweep in the UNC game he had no prep for. Clearly her sucks”
“Has Jurkovec fumbled or thrown interceptions?”
“Well yea, far too many times now to count actually”
“How much prep did he have?”
“Hmm, I don’t know, I don’t follow this minutia, why don’t you tell ME, brainiac? A few weeks?”
“Seven months”
“Ok, that’s one gotcha. BUT…Yarnell didn’t look great in that WMU game and he had the whole week to prepare!”
“All right. Well, he’s not the first backup, for one. Second, he was a pure freshman. Third, didn’t he look at least as good as Jurkovec did in his first game?”
“Well, yes “
“And that game was against…?”
“Wilford, or something”
“Wofford actually. And having watched those games, as bad as WMU surely is, how much worse would you say Wofford is?”
“Well … about infinity worse actually. It was one of the worst teams that ever stepped foot into Acrisure and that includes A class high school teams and frisbee dog squads.”
“So after all this you still think Jurkovec is clearly the guy that they should go with”
“Yes because the coaches make these decisions and they know much more than us”
“The coaches that called for play action on fourth and twenty last week?”
“My pumpkin spice latte is done, I have to go”
