So, I think we can all agree that questions about game planning and in-game decisions abound. But, have you considered the experience level of the players in the game. Of the 25 offensive players listed on the depth chart for the Wake Forest game, 14 were sophomores or freshman. Of the 29 defensive players listed on the depth chart for the Wake Forest game, 23 were sophomores or freshman. That's are very inexperienced and young depth chart. So I wonder how much of the game planning and in-game decisions are impacted by the lack of experience on the roster? How many of the poor play executions are due to inexperience of the roster? And of the juniors and seniors, how many of them were actually developed properly during their freshman and sophomore years? For the non-transfer seniors and juniors, I'm betting the development was poor.
Not saying there haven't been some seriously poor play calls, but you have to wonder how much of the play calling is the coaches trying to win games with an outmatched team vs. just trying to improve. We all say we want to see improvement, but is that really the case. It sure seems, at times, that we care more about winning, and I'm guessing the fan feedback may be impacting coaching decisions.
