Dave BartooGUEST
And for Dave, it, it, it was, it was always felt like a teeter-totter for him, um- You know, i-in terms of when was it going to get stale, uh, a-and, and people would start turning on it because, you know, there's, there doesn't feel like there's a lot of upside, and now we're getting some downside.
Dave BartooGUEST
And for Dave, with Kurt Roper as his OC, DJ Elliott as his DC, look, this is, this was a bottom-half OC/DC pairing to start the season, and I'm being nice about that.
Dave BartooGUEST
These two aren't that good in the ACC.
Dave BartooGUEST
So, so Dave was trying to win games with mid-level talent and below-average offense and defensive coordination.
Chuck OliverHOST
Somebody who just watches on TV and doesn't do this for a living like you do.
Dave BartooGUEST
Yeah.
Chuck OliverHOST
When I saw Kurt Roper, I was like, "Wait a minute, you're gonna save your offense with Kurt Roper?" Like, 'cause I've seen that act in a couple of...
Chuck OliverHOST
What was it, Duke? I've seen him at, uh, again, Gainesville.
Adam GoldHOST
Again, you got blitzed in that one, but you did give up, you did give up 35 to Vandy and another 31 to App State.
Adam GoldHOST
That certainly has to be a concern in r- having to kind of look at your offensive coordinator in Kurt Roper and going, "Hey, uh, you know, we're probably gonna give up another 30 here, so could you score five times?"
Cory SmithGUEST
Yeah, not only that, but you're going into a game with one of the most explosive teams, if not the most explosive teams in the country, uh, in Louisville.
Cory SmithGUEST
And then you have a, a very, very disciplined offense that you're going into the following week and have some talent.
Kenton GibbsHOST
Now here's the thing.
Kenton GibbsHOST
While I do think one of the things I've noticed, Kurt Roper needs to get those plays in quicker, needs to happen, point blank period.
Kenton GibbsHOST
That's not a should happen, not a might happen.
Kenton GibbsHOST
He needs to get those plays in quicker.
Erik AingeHOST
So like there's just no excuse for a guy that's played a lot of football with a staff that's...
Erik AingeHOST
You know, I mean, Kurt Roper is the OC.
Erik AingeHOST
Kurt Roper is a, a, a one of the smarter guys there is in football.
Brian RiceHOST
All you have to do is take the snap, sprint to the other corner of the end zone, hold onto the ball.
Erik AingeHOST
When anybody gets close, fall down.
Mike GlennonHOST
So I think that gave them time for CJ ran over to Dave Doran.
Mike GlennonHOST
If I remember correctly, other thing is now that they have the, uh, voice, the headset communication, you're hoping Kurt Roper's reminding him this as well.
Mike GlennonHOST
Um, At the end of the day...
Mike GlennonHOST
I find it hard
17 MINS LATER
Mike GlennonHOST
Wide open seam route that CJ hit right on the money.
Mike GlennonHOST
Second touchdown to him was a great cover zero beater.
Mike GlennonHOST
Another good play design by Kurt Roper.
Mike GlennonHOST
And then the third one was really just a good throwing catch for But to get open.
David GlennHOST
We've all seen the intentional safety play in similar situations many times as the Wolfpack tried to run.
David GlennHOST
I don't think the call was necessarily a bad one by the head coach, Dave Doeren, or his offensive coordinator, Kurt Roper.
David GlennHOST
I don't believe what was sent in to be run was an automatically bad idea in those final seconds against Vanderbilt.
David GlennHOST
However, I do put the majority of the blame on the coaching staff and a lesser amount on the quarterback, C.J. Bailey, who obviously botched the execution of the play by fumbling the ball in traffic in his [laughs] own end zone rather than running out of bounds or taking a knee with just a few seconds remaining.
Grayson BooneHOST
Maybe we telegraphed the run a little bit too much.
Grayson BooneHOST
I think the Kurt Roper offense kind of does that at times, but I thought Davion Goss was a nice change of pace.
Grayson BooneHOST
Seven carries for 33 yards.
Grayson BooneHOST
That's 4.7 yards per gain.
Grayson BooneHOST
I thought the offense was pretty good.
Grayson BooneHOST
I thought Kurt Roper called a good game.
Grayson BooneHOST
And we talked about how the offense in some ways needed to be a little bit more simplistic for CJ.
Grayson BooneHOST
Create open underneath routes.
Jim CollinsPANELIST
You can call it whatever you want to do.
Jim CollinsPANELIST
But I know Kurt Roper, and I can tell you this right now, that's not what the hell Coach Roper coached C.J. Bailey to do.
Jim CollinsPANELIST
He didn't coach him to go back in the middle of the end zone, all of a sudden get hit and fumble the football.
Jim CollinsPANELIST
He didn't coach him that way.
Julian CouncilHOST
Instead, they don't.
Julian CouncilHOST
So the situation that we're discussing should have never happened had, one, a player who knows a snap count been disciplined, and, two, you would have been the same old conservative Dave you've always been and told Kurt Roper to run the damn ball, which did not happen.
Julian CouncilHOST
So that can't be lost in all of this.
Julian CouncilHOST
I do wonder, though, where State goes from here because you talked about Dave can't come back from this, and you're someone who played for his program.
