I agree there were a lot of players last year who just did not take to Coach K. English HAS to help out on defense. I think the number of coaching and player defections from last year show just how many internal problems there were. We will lack depth this year, but hopefully we won't lack INTENSITY again. Picking up a lot of players to throw at the problems won't hurt as we have scholarships available. Jucos rotate in and out quick to open scholarships faster. I think Urritia leaving is a good indication of coach/player relations last year. He may be 6'5", but he developed stone hands last year and dropped way too many passes to impress NFL teams. I think he left for the same reasons that DC is leaving the basketball team. Coaches want to coach players who want to improve, not babysit whiners who underachieve and cause problems. Same with Stripling. I liked his speed, but he also developed hands of stone. If these guys couldn't hold onto the balls Brohm delivered, how are they gonna catch the bullets Cantwell throws. He's got no questions about arm strength.
