I realize that our football staff in limited by the scarcity of ACC level talent and playable depth, but the refusal to try something new confounds me. I understand that the staff would like to have a viable running attack, but we do not, and BC has a good run defense. Our stats show that we had 29 attempts at running and gained 59 yards for a smidge over 2 yards per carry. On the other hand, we completed 22 of 34 passes for 247 yards and a 7.3 yards per pass average. While this stat is nothing to give me the warm fuzzies, it is better than 2, and we did this without involving the tight ends or running backs as receivers.
While this is partially caused by using tight ends and backs as blocking support for the Oline, occasional use would give the defense something else to consider.
