[NU Sports] Re: Bad Coaching Decisions

[Roy Lamberton]

I remember guys on the chat literally screaming from their keyboards about both
Baz and Kustok's tendency to take off running when it appeared the play had been
blown up, but hadn't.

Its hard not to take off running when it appears your primary [and secondary]
rcvrs are covered - The QB has to learn to look off beyond #1 and #2 - there are
few under classmen who do that well.
