Lots to cover, and I’ve been on early calls to start the week.
Injuries piling up on the defense have been something of a contributing factor for the struggles. Two linebackers (Zeise and Capara), a defensive end (Hendrix) and now it looks like a cornerback (Maddox).
The latter has Coach Pat Narduzzi clearly being forced to consider the removal of redshirts on Damar Hamlin and/or Therran Coleman. Both made their debuts on the depth chart for the Virginia game yesterday as the third options at the corner spots.
Avonte Maddox is still listed as the starter, but few people believe that after he left the Georgia Tech game in the first half and had his arm in a sling and out of uniform in the second half.
