Here's the million dollar question that Barnette needs to answer: Why the hell were you running a toss sweep in the fourth quarter with the slowest running back on the team? What good could have possibly come from that play design? What, was he gonna make 2 guys miss in the backfield and maybe fall forward for a 1 yard gain? That was almost a stupid as the the toss sweep to the short side of the field in the fourth quarter against Elon. This one stings a bit more because that play call basically got Graves hurt against Duke. Not intentionally... but still. i agree with thrilla's point, but we can't hold a poor play call responsible for graves injury. it could've happened on any play...

If they put Ifedi in at RB I will lose my mind.
He's a Dual Threat QB...nothing more, nothing less.
And he should get some reps Saturday.

I think that Korey Banks or Stephen Davis Jr would do a better job at RB. We also have a pretty good walk on RB I think is better than tj boyce. I believe he wears number 6 in practice

I think they should look at one of the Freshman Dupre or Harris Both were RB in High Schools.Its funny how things turn all the Backs we had before Camp are now gone in order for this season to be good QB, DE and Running Backs cant take any major Hits.

You have 4 games that can be played before a player losses his RS . Why not use the freshman RB's . Keeping them on the sidelines is a waste .

Still would like to know what happened with Hutchinson.
Always seems like we have promising guys who just disappear inside the Bermuda Triangle every fall.

Barnette is now a national champion, conference champion, and bowl champion coach. I don't believe he feels he needs answer to those who are not in his profession. :-)

I dont agree with Dooms but he call it before the season begin our OC play calling is very suspect. I am so sick of that design run play that carter never looks up and just try to run the ball while you have two receivers wide open. Is it me he is very slow
