Conference opener - It's time to unveil the secret weapon

Postby PonyTime » Mon Sep 29, 2014 8:47 am

Don't we have a secret weapon Lacrosse player from Duke?

Perhaps he knows how to hit, catch or throw...

I thought Matt Davis was the secret weapon, the practice gurus said he was being saved for conference play.

I sure hope so. They can't continue with the current QB situation and expect to win a game this year...

It was I who originally speculated they were holding him out and installing a simpler offense to use him in conference play. That was pure speculation. I am 360 miles from practice.

I saw that from a few others on this board, guys who are normally plugged into practices. They seemed pretty sure that Davis was being saved for conference play so our opponents wouldn't have much film on him.
