Cloak and Dagger with the Roster

[Bullrush33]

Not going to lie, I am little frustrated with Charlies cloak and dagger with who is playing and who is not playing.  We don't even know who is hurt or not or people in trouble.

Not hurt but missing in action:  Culpepper, Donelle Thomas, Jabreel Stephens,  Andre Polk,

Hurt but didn't know it: Jaymon Thomas, Bentlee Sanders, Demetrius Harris

So many players are rotating. Don't know if this is going to help or hurt in the end. It seems like the offense does not have continuity because other than the wide receivers for the most part everyone is shuffled in and out. The defense is a dang mary go round.   RB was more consistent this game but still no continuity. 5 running backs is not a committee its a circus.  

 

I wanted to add I hope that Coach Strong is just trying to take advantage of the new redshirt rule and we shall see less substitutions later on.

You can add the Duke Transfers Price and Boyce to the MIA list too.

CCS is in over his head, CJL always had the right players in his starting lineup.

I read the thread title and thought, "dear Lord, which player's foot has been maimed now?"

Its the coaching val...coaches do not want to broadcast substitutions, injuries, etc. for the coaching staff of the next opponent.

The level of secrecy is at a new level. We would at least hear something prior to games. Some of this information we are not finding out until after the game. How much gamesmanship is there with lesser opponents? If we need that kind of advantage every game we are in trouble.

CJL didn't have as much depth and skill in every position either. Aka if the 1's went down we were screwed.

I just hope this thread is a joke and the comments that CCS is in over his head...let's see 13-2 and 36-6 in his AAC career. You don't  have the right to know who is hurt or who has discipline issues. You only have the right to know that he is putting the best players available on the field.

I hear your frustration, but it is prevelant throughout college football.
