Summary
OL: I don't have as much of a problem with rotating if that is the plan.
RUcrazy said... (original post) What the heck is Turner doing? He is still rotating pieces at 3 games in. I can see experimenting with one or two guys but that has not been the ca... show more I don't have as much of a problem with rotating if that is the plan. I have an issue with it if he does not know who fits best where. He was moving guys around all spring. That may have been a reason why the OL was so poor for the first six quarters. It is hard to imagine Flaherty's group coming out and playing like that through the first six quarters. Now, Turner may get them together and the OL could play well the rest of the way. But the damage done with that UMass loss is going to be tough to overcome. If Flaherty stays, I doubt the OL performs like that in game one. Chin is back, Asamoah is back, Needham is back. They all logged starts under Flaherty and did well. Maybe it took some time for this group to find their footing under Turner because they did play well against USC. Problem is the UMass performance turned Rutgers into a national laughingstock and embarrassed the entire university. The O-Line had a lot to do with that loss. No matter what Turner does the rest of the season, it's tough for anyone who watched that UMass game to forget about seeing his O-Line just get bullied.
