Chip who's your favorite player on the team this year... Who do you think will be the team MVP the next four games playing lights out?

My favorite player on the team this year, as well as team MVP for the next four games, is Dallas Crawford. I kept saying during the summer that Dallas was going to have a breakout year behind Duke because of his willingness to work hard, be a student of the game, and his humility. I also said if Duke "were" to go down, Miami wouldn't skip a beat in the running game because Dallas is consistent and has one of the best O-Lines in the country. That will apply now more than ever as the scenario has finally played out, but Dallas will be great. I have no doubt in my mind. It's a matter of now can he stay healthy?
 
Do yall call pi kappa phi "pi kapp" down there or pi kappa alpha "pi kapp". It's literally different every campus I go to. If phi, I hate you. If pike, phi phi my brother.

I'm in Pi Kappa Phi, and we call our frat "pi kapp". The Pi Kappa Alpha chapter is usually called, "Pike". Regardless, don't hate!

Well, that's optimistic. Foolhardy, but optimistic.

Yeah, didn't know. The first 24 chapters of pike are a lot of times called Pi Kapp. It is like this at Chapel Hill

Well, that's optimistic. Foolhardy, but optimistic.

That's not foolhardy! Dallas had 137 yards on 33 carries against UNC and is arguably Miami's best red zone scorer on the offense. Mind you he hasn't found pay dirt these past two weeks, but he's overdue for a great game today. I think he'll get to 80, maybe more, as he'll be splitting carries with Clements and Edwards most likely. But to say that the running game is not going to be as effective with Duke out is foolish. That O-Line is where it all starts and they are GOOD. VT will make it tough, but with all that said I still think Miami will be able to run the ball today.

Wish you were right.

What the **** happened last night, Chip?

Early Turnovers, poor defensive gameplan, and those uniforms. Now the Canes are left having to rely on other teams to help them out. As my uncle tells me every year, three words the Canes can never understand, "CONTROL YOUR DESTINY." It's gonna be a tough stretch for everyone now so buckle up if you haven't already.
 
Is it the scheme or the players chip? Pick one...no loafing lol

Well..... I'm going with the scheme as the problem. For three years D'Onofrio, and Golden, have stuck with the soft zone defense to try and force teams to throw into dummy coverages and what not. A lot of what went wrong last night was due to that fact alone. The poor tackling made it more glaring. But the players are all talented and have some form of football smarts. It's just that the scheme is so easy to gameplan because all you need to do is play the short game and work yourself into the red zone and finish. Also those drag routes always are successful because they can just sit in the gaps between coverages. Golden needs to commit to a harder and more aggresive defense that implements more man defense and less zone.
