[NU Sports] Our coaching shortfalls

[johnadeg at comcast.net]

Look on the bright side.  At half time, NU made some adjustments instead of sticking with what didn't' work in the first half.  Also, we have a kicking game for the first time in years.  That can make the difference between winning and losing.  I agree there were some unfathomable plays called, but considering everything it could have been a loss.  I agree with whoever said it, but Duke will eventually win a game.  The trick is to make sure that it doesn't happen on Saturday.
