After watching them play against Central and then JSU they were two different Campbell teams . One game they dominated and then the second their offense (#1 as someone mentioned) was nowhere to be found . Iβm hoping they come into Truist being cocky and we just execute on both sides of the ball. The guys have a lot of confidence going into this game .

The starters were pulled late after mustering up 2 field goals. RM was selling out on the run which kind of limits what we could practice. I see nothing wrong with coasting for almost a quarter and a half due to the lead. We were far from home and had a long trip. Let's not show to much and get back home and get ready for Campbell. It's mid season. We have played better teams than Campbell, so their talent shouldn't be a surprise. Time to move on. Funny how people be talking about experience but then some complain when we do just that. Based on some people philosophy we should have played Hooker halfway through the 3rd. But the other half think El(upgrade from Chico) needs to get as many reps as possible for this year. We gotta beat Campbell. The RM game went to "What's best to beat Campbell?" after the first half. I have to disagree about the starters being pulled . You don't wait that far into the 3 quarter to pull your starters especially when you have a commanding lead like that . What would have happened if Tuten ,Chico or any of our starting Skill players would have went down ? Chico has shown that he has command of the offense, we have to big backups and a few others that can run and need touches, two backup QB's that need on field Experience, backup receivers and down lineman both sides of the ball and DB'-LB that need in game time . Come on now don't let your disdain for Chico and his progression overrule your common sense reasoning . Because there is no doubt in my mind that if Chico would have thrown an interception or fumbled the ball you would be all over him like a bad El Debarge cover of one of Michael Jackson's songs πππ€£

a coach should "never" let his team take the foot off the pedal because often that tendency is hard to break. you mess around and take the foot off the pedal against the wrong team (cough, cough, garner webb) and you'll wind up getting your azz kicked. worse thing in the world is for a head coach to allow his team to adopt "bad habits" such as letting up when you have a big lead. once you let that genie out of the bottle, its hard to put it back in... Especially when you have your starters on the field . Starters should never take there foot off the gas , Hell No body starters or backups should always play all out until the last whistle is blown. You are correct it affects players psychologically ( Mentality) and physically ( Muscle Memory) when they back off and not play full effort .

Teams like that are your worst nightmare because you don't know which one will show up ππ and by the time you do it's to late . Hell Campbell gave as much as they took against JSU. That's how it is when two equally matched teams face off . Campbell just happened to Blink First and it cost them the game . Hell JSU should have given there field goal kicker the game ball because he saved there a$$ π I think we have the talent that is equal to Campbell's ( do prove me wrong) this weekend.

I am just not sold we going to win the game unless we get a 100 percent buy in from Folwer he cannot turn the ball over. They going to pack 8 guys in the box so Folwer passing game needs to be on point.If you all think our defense will win the game you all are not being realistic. They have the #1 offense in the bigsouth. I know we have the #defense but we going to have to be able to move the chains get first down get the crowd in the game and score points consistently. I am a sore losing if we lose I am done for the rest of the season!!! Just look forward to ELI Sensation to play next year!!! ππ€£π your killing me . Chico is not the only person on the field . If anything you should be concerned about our O & D line play and the situational play calling from the OC . I'm not a Chico fan but I give the youngman great respect for dealing with some of you naysayers that continue to hate on the youngman and looking for him to fail so that you can say you were rightπππ I hope he and the team takes A&T to the ship and into the playoffs because this is not about one player its about the team .

Ain't you the dude that wants the backup QB to rep as much as possible? Explain to me how what you said doesn't conflict with that? Taking the QB out is taking the foot off right? According to all your "get your QB some experience" post, Hooker should have come in after a 30 point lead?

According to all your "get your QB some experience" post, Hooker should have come in after a 30 point lead? no, not true at all. as i've "repeatedly" stated, the backup should be put into the game for "STRATEGIC" reasons and only "IF POSSIBLE"!! that is not taking the foot off the pedal, sir. that's called "strategically" putting your backup in the game for experience purposes as well as to advance the team. in no way whatsoever is that "taking the foot off the pedal". if you gone quote me, then quote me "correctly and accurately"... so basically you're saying because graves comes in to give tuten a breather occasionally, you consider that "taking the foot off the pedal"? no, that's a "STRATEGIC" substitution, no different than "STRATEGICALLY" playing your backup qb for a series or two "in every game" when possible (not just during blowouts) for the dual purpose of gaining experience as well as advancing the team. dude, you don't get to "define" my own philosophies...

Coaches are already on him. π 1. How you know? 2. Can he ball? 1. Coach Poole is following him on Twitter (so is Coard) 2. He has zero stats, not sure if he's hurt, redshirted or what
