JAMESSS!



INSTRUCTIVE DRIVE

Michigan quarterback Wilton Speight began laughing as his coaches called the same play “like eight times in a row” in the second half.

Sensing desperation, the Wolverines ran basically one play — “We would just flip it back and forth,” Speight said — on an effortless, 80-yard scoring drive to take a 35-3 lead.
...
It's a situation that Penn State coach James Franklin must get creative to address or risk future quotes like this.

“I can imagine that would suck to go through that every single play,” Speight said of Penn State’s defense, “having someone just run over you."  JAMESSS!

Man, I'll tell ya, I don't know if James Franklin is up to the job at PSU. First, he gets taken by surprise by the KENT STATE coaches and needs a half to come to grips with the "Golden Flashes" schematic brilliance; then he gets blind-sided by Pitt's first-half sleight of hand and almost gets his and his team's asses blown out of Heinz Field; post-game he blamed Pitt's defensive signaling by hand-clap for "illegally" distracting his offense. Then the next week he barely beats Temple. Now this week. 49-10 and that "instructive" account by Michigan's quarterback of PSU's preparedness for the same play! run over and over and over (eight overs) again. Had the kid laughing in the huddle! Later in the same article:

Noteworthy was Penn State's lack of willingness to adjust a run game that was stopped in the backfield seven times. McSorley was credited with nine runs (six were sacks) but seldom tucked in the zone read.

Yes, "noteworthy" there is the same "instructive" lack of being "creative" on offense that Franklin displays on defense! Lol, James.

It's beginning to look like James ain't got game. He's "No Game" James.
