So williams misses dorsett and we turn it over on downs.. I watched williams the whole time on the sideline while unc had the ball.. he was just standing by himself or wandering around looking at morris's ankle... fisch was alone looking at his play sheet away from everyone.... dont you think that would have been a good time to coach him up and get him ready for the last drive? Or how about warn him that we cant take a sack under any circumstances! I just found it odd that literally nobody was talking to him. I realize he knows the offense but it seemed strange to me

With our D, Fisch was probably looking at restaurant menus, never came to him that we might get the ball back.
 
fact checking his resume, 'should I mention this job or just put "between jobs?"

I was directly behind the UM bench and saw the same thing. I totally agree, he should have been next to Fisch getting instructions and going over plays with the OC.

I got blasted when I said it ****ed me off that Morris was smiling during the Notre Dame game. Well, we can leave that as it is. However, similarly, it just looks like the players either don't care or they don't how to react during certain game situations. If I am the back-up, this is the PERFECT example of being able to prove yourself and do something amazing in your athletic career. Instead, our back-up is standing by himself, looking at Morris's ankle, and not going over the plays or getting prepared. It just seems really odd to me and totally unlike anything I've seen from other programs.

Also, how can any quarterback take a sack in that situation and then throw it 5 yards short on 4th down? Not just blaming Williams either - Walford needs to run his route to the first down as well. I hate to say it, but our team plays with little urgency and even seems aloof in these situations.
