What's this?

If he calls TO to get the coverage right, a deep TD doesn't happen...

giving up a deep ball with 20 seconds left when your opponent has no timeouts is idiotic, so if the players aren't checking into the right coverage, call a TO & get them in the right coverage. If Syracuse hits a 50 yarder at the gun, then so be it, but man coverage on a tall WR with that little time left on the clock is mind-boggling.

Fuente disappointed that players didn't check into coverage -- One4VT 10/26/2021 11:33AM

I remember fans upset that Beamer wouldn't call players out -- Go VT 10/26/2021 6:05PM

Me too - if only there was someone who could have made them ** -- bigbadbird 10/26/2021 1:22PM

That's an interesting shift away from always claiming responsibility. ** -- Lane2020 10/26/2021 12:26PM

Pretty sure we had timeouts left -- OrlandoHokie 10/26/2021 12:23PM

Really bad time to call a timeout per 100% of football peeps ** -- fordham 10/26/2021 1:21PM

That would have gone over well... -- RTFC 10/26/2021 1:00PM

If he had called t/o and thrown a fit at the secondary.. -- capitals1 10/26/2021 3:40PM

A strong maybe, ...but everyone on here would have already known that...;) ** -- RTFC 10/26/2021 3:53PM

Hindsight is 20/20 ** -- fordham 10/26/2021 1:23PM

It was a clear boneheaded coverage call at the time, no hindsight needed... -- BROman Hokie 10/26/2021 2:27PM

LOL ** -- RTFC 10/26/2021 3:23PM

Works both ways to be fair. Also applies to Fuente's assessment ** -- One4VT 10/26/2021 1:50PM

Throw players under the bus, yeah that works ** -- Technocrat 10/26/2021 12:22PM

When a unit fails, its obvious. no harm in acknowledging it! ** -- MDHokie79 10/26/2021 6:21PM

Players do mess up. Pointing it out is not throwing them under the bus ** -- fordham 10/26/2021 1:22PM

You point it out in the locker room not on a radio show. ** -- OrlandoHokie 10/26/2021 4:19PM

It is when you've done a crap job preparing and recruiting the team ** -- Technocrat 10/26/2021 1:25PM

It was a team loss. Coaches and players -- GCHokieof91 10/26/2021 1:40PM

So is it JF fault if our linebacker play… -- DCL 10/26/2021 2:48PM

It's one of two things, a coaching issue or player development issue ** -- Technocrat 10/26/2021 4:13PM

By this logic, the best-coached players never make a mistake. Sorry, -- dj97223 10/26/2021 6:26PM

Yes the next guy will be perfect. The team was prepared -- fordham 10/26/2021 1:34PM
