For the record I like Milton. Atleast he hits the running lane hard and has good vision with cuts. I say run him again. If I see another RB try three running moves before he gets to the line of scrimmage I could punch a baby in the face.

Dixon and Ballard covered up a lot of mistakes because they are great backs and were every down backs. We don't have an every down back right now except for Shump and maybe J Rob.
Are you trying to tell us that Dan doesn't know who is going out on the field and can't tell a position coach "no"? Sometimes you have to mircomanage if it's the best thing for the team.

Milton is actually a nice runner but with no ball security it's all negated.

Did Nick Griffin get a position change?

We have two running backs that are better. Why not just play them?

We better come out swinging and I think scoring on the first drive is crucial to victory

You all have been begging for Milton. He has the best potential on the team but he can't hold onto the ball. Two times in two years he's cost us a game. And just last night he was talking about how he was getting an opportunity and was gonna take it.
Shumpert is taking JRob's pt. JRob isn't helping himself by calling out coaches on twitter either.

Well, if we give full blame to Mullen for Milton's fumble, we have to give him full credit for the forced fumble on special teams. But oddly, I don't see 900 posts lauding him for that play.
Many of you guys have lost all ability to see things objectively.

I'm guessing you've never been in a leadership position. Mullen hired him, Mullen teaches and advises him, and Mullen has the final say. When you are over a team, a project, a business, etc. it is on YOU if the jobs not getting done.
And I like how you say we don't have any every down backs, except for maybe two. Lmao. How many do you want is to have? And why the **** are they never used? Knox again? Please.

I can remember 2 Milton plays in his career: The fumble at LSU last year that hit him in his face mask and that fumble right there. Both were horrid and killed momentum on the road.

I just like that everything is Dan's fault. Every single personnel decision on every single play is Dan's responsibility? Come on guys that's grasping at straws. Of course they talk about stuff during meetings all week. But if Perkins is out and J Rob is out (assuming), then Milton is back in the equation. If you think Knox brought up using Milton, don't you think he should get equal blame for suggesting something so stupid? Of course not. You would rather blame Mullen 100%.
If Perkins is out, that changes the game. No J Rob so assuming something must be wrong with him. Now we are down to 3 RBs. Milton comes back in the equation now IMO. I want more Shumpert but come one guys. Knox is the RB coach. What the hell does he do on game day? Sit around and let Dan do everything? No. He has to make decisions to and blaming Mullen for the shitty RB personnel decisions this year without also pointing a finger at Knox is insanity.

I don't blame Robinson.
Robinson- 275 yards, 2 rushing TD's, 5.4 average.
Perkins- 458 yards coming into today, 2 rushing TD's, 4.3 average.

Take off he blinders. We have Griffin AND Shumpert. Both are bigger backs and we were on the goal line. I don't give a rats ass who suggested Milton....it shows pure stupidity for our head coach/Offensive play caller, not to overrule that suggestion.

Position coaches decides who plays. Mullen might have some influence but in the heat of the moment, position coaches send their guys out. You really think Mullen decides when Clyborn goes in or how the D subs?

Fellas,
They make a depth chart before every game, and Dan has full veto power of it. Dan knew there was a chance Milton could be used right there. Completely unacceptable. No awareness for the game, NONE.
Dan isn't a bad coach, but he is an awful manager
