I'm a big time critic of BM but have no problem with them taking off a Fri-Sun

from physical practices. But they did have team meetings and film. Probably some lifting and conditioning work.

Now if he takes off the entire bye week and one of the prep days for the following week like he has done in the past, then I have a problem. Because that has been a recipe for losing, particularly as of late.

I think resting tired bodies was the best way to use the weekend.

9/14/14 10:44pm

So if uva practiced today instead of resting you would question that?

run26

9/14/14 10:46pm

No

Zach

9/14/14 10:46pm

No. I see it both ways. Both teams will be just fine.

9/14/14 10:48pm

Did UVA travel 7,000 miles for their first 2 games, then play game 3 on a Thurs?

I'm sure film was dispersed by coaches on Friday for individual study

Bronco believes that burnout is a real thing, and that if you don't take breaks

At what point in the first quarter does this come up on CB as the sure cause of

that's why you stay off CB during games.

Give it up already

MtnMan

9/14/14 11:08pm

Oh no. You mean, they failed to use every single available practice!

9/14/14 11:18pm

Bronco's 3-0, dispelling the 1-2 myth that usually leads to this complaint.

If you're not sure ... why complain ?

I'm more raising the point than complaining

Fine ... if you're not sure, why raise the point ?

What point are you raising? You don't know what they are doing so why are you

Two long road trips, followed by a short week. 3 games in 13 days.

Then don't. Nothing says you have to bring it up, especially if you don't know

That's not true.

Can I ask an honest question, did you play FB in HS?

Broncoite

9/15/14 6:55am

3 games in 13 days. Rest and getting healthy is most important now.

Nice to know we have a coach who knows it's not smart to overwork his players.

That how it usually works in the NFL after a Thursday game

Think if you held yourself to the same standard as you hold these unpaid kids

ChunkyBasty

They played 3 games in 13 days and are 3-0. If Bronco did give them the weekend

CosmosCuzzn

9/15/14 8:36am

If Bronco started 1-2 again this year I would be annoyed but

Jkampana

9/15/14 8:52am

Normally I would agree with you but after the Houston game I think it will help

buhlcougar

Perfect. Get some rest. Get the school work done. Back to work on Monday.
