should have storm the field

this has been my account for a long time, buddy. sorry i'm excited about this program and didn't swallow an entire bottle of sleeping pills or **** my wrists at halftime, only to run to the ER halfway thru the 4th quarter to get my stomach pump and my veins stitched up because we don't actually suck and Mike White is the best QB USF has seen since BJ.

Is he a heisman candidate too? Heisman winners are usually terrible in the NFL. Mike White is SUPERBOWL ready, patna!!

next time wait until the end of the 4th quarter to whine.

he has the height. he has the arm strength. the accuracy. the mobility. he might declare for the draft after this season! all he needs is time in the gym to get his weight up. Mike White, SUPERSTAR!!!

exactly. nearly everybody on this team making plays is a freshman or sophomore. takes time to cycle in the talent to match the system.

was it a horrible lack of fundamentals? yeah. but he's a freshman. hard to be mad at the kid when he made the play in the first place. when was the last time USF even used a fullback, nevermind have one that can catch the ball and run with it? it is a much welcomed wrinkle. and at the very least he flipped the field and put Wisconsin inside their 10. the defense had MULTIPLE chances to stop that 9 minute drive... to put the game on him is bunk IMO, especially when we would still have been behind even WITH a TD there instead of a fumble.

CWT is already better than Shiz Holtz. Holtz won with the leftovers of Leavitt's talent and his wins decreased each year, exposing his absolute inability to 1) recruit effectively and 2) develop talent. what we saw in his 3-9 season was the true Holtz, not the Clemson-slaying, ND beater we saw early in his brief tenure. CWT can recruit. his young guys are already outperforming the Holtz leftovers. we can't afford to pay another coach, and starting over from scratch AGAIN before CWT even has a chance to see his recruits hit their junior and senior years would be just another waste of contract. with Holtz we NEEDED to cut him to stop the downward spiral. with CWT i think we've already seen some improvement. give him time.

can't say im a fan of the schemes on O or D tho. dont like ProStyle with FLA talent. don't like the 3-4 D. ever.

i was one of the first to say fire Leavitt and i would gladly admit my error and say bring him back. unfortunately the "sociopolitical" climate surrounding sports right now is ULTRA SENSITIVE PC so if Da Shaft and whoever the AD is now rehire an old coach who was fired for *ALLEGEDLY* putting the smack down on a player, u can bet your ass ESPN would bury us. with Ray Rice, Adrian Peterson dominating sports headlines... no way they bring back Leavitt, no matter HOW dubious the evidence was, or whether what CJL actually did was worthy of termination. now if he'd crashed his motorcycle while smashing his assistant, or whatever, he'd be back already. (speaking of which, why didn't we bring in Petrino?) on a side note, it speaks volumes about the state of the program when Bulls fans are buying "FireWillieTaggart" domains to bank on the program's demise. IMO, firing Willie right now makes no sense. the crowds at RayJay are already thin, and most coaches worth having are coaching already. as horrible as the pro-style offense is, White has never been able to take snaps in any formation. he dropped a perfect snap in the shotgun this afternoon. he is absolutely horrible. and this team doesn't have depth at the skill positions to outlast B5 teams after **** Holtz left the cupboard bare. look at the games... WCU played us tough the first couple quarters because they got up for us, but our better talent allowed us to outlast their FCS talent. we played Maryland tough for 2+ qtrs but their B5 talent outlasted us. we played NCState well for a quarter and almost had the lead and HUGE momentum, but a bad break turned it around and NCState's B5 talent took over. this team needs to build not just talent but DEPTH. some of the best players on the field are freshmen. one full year of recruiting is not enough to fill the hole Holtz took a Skip in.

he's no Matt or BJ, but he's definitely got much better wheels than anyone we've seen since those two. i like his vision and awareness. he makes better reads than White. he can find the open man but still has the ability to pull it down and scramble for a few if the play breaks down or he sees an opening. Bench = starter for the rest of the season. end the discussion now.

...and always has been. sad that it took White getting injured for Bench to see time, now look at the results. why didn't Willie see this?

in summary: Greek rhymes with ECU.

On the fumble the ball was actually punched out. I don't hold that against him as he was holding it against his body correctly. maybe he needs to work on his strength then... /devil's advocate Mack IS our offense until anyone else at the skill positions can prove otherwise. tying the record for rush yards and TDs first game out should earn him the starting job the rest of the year. did he put some balls on the turf? yes. but ball security techniques can be coached. the athletic talents he displayed (as "summarized" by ckparrot shamelessly quoting himself), cannot. u either have it or u don't and Mack has it. and Mack is about all USF has right now.

point noted. just not psyched about the game. at all. although there is improvement. last year we lose this game. i like Mack. he's from down this way. Booker product. the south Bay area-- Bradenton, Sarasota, Palmetto-- has plenty of talent.
