I don't know who Broadford is but with those gawdy numbers, I'm sure glad he's on our team!
See last years spring scrimage stats to see how meaningless these numbers are.
Bottom line: coaching staff, WRs, RBs and secondary are not at championship level.
Ok let's break this down in the non-www.wearesc.com way...not "NC here we come!" haha
OK..78 plays..or about 1 game.
1 int 2 fumbles..lovely. We aren't going far with 3 TO's per game..PC will throw himself in front of a bus..better get that fixed.
Sanchez 9-15 for roughly 100 yards..probably most of it on 1 pass for 20 yards or so. Another year of 5.2 avg. yards per catch it seems...better do something about that, too.
howver, It looks like MM did well for once. Promising..
All the varoius RB's: 6 or 7 carries for 35 yards..5 yards per carry sounds good..but we need a RB who is going to get more than 35 yards per game. Bradford?
Defense..toupou seems to be going good but WTF with all these long runs? everyday I go on this site someone has broken one off for 50 + yards..Mcknight 94 yd kickoff return, johnson 70 yard pass bradford 70 yard run, corp 30 yard run for TD..our defense must be blowing assignments left and right..I mean honestly what do i see here about 400 yards of offense from MM and adam goodman against the first team defense? ouch..throw in a blocked punt and I hope PC & crew are worried..
8 penalties, a blocked punt, 3 TO's & a kickoff return for a TD allowed...
when did Paul Hackett start coaching again?
Interesting to me is the lack of mention of Pat Turner. Read lots of good stuff on Damien, RoJo, Travon, Aus, but rarely hear about big Pat Turner plays. Also, not much on Stafon, but I am guessing that they are just giving the other RBs more early looks. I wonder if this premise transfers over to Pat Turner, or not?
