“Dammit, do I REALLY have to bring in Kirby? Coop! Get under center, we’re running the option.”

Kyle Wright is banged up. He has a few cuts, scrapes and boo-boos from a run-in with the bully at the ACC playground. His left hand is swollen, and what was left of his fragile psyche has a compound fracture. What hasn’t been damaged is his funny bone:

“You should see the other guy,” Wright quipped. “He got a lot worse than I did.”

Hehehe, jokes from the QB who just got blown out by 34 points. Hilarious!

Hey, at least Wright TOLD  the team not to let it become a blowout. What a great goal.

“Talking about it is pretty easy. You can tell when guys play if they want it or not,” Wright said. “I told those guys Saturday, ‘If you’ve got any pride and self-respect, don’t let this game become a blowout.’ And it still happened. But to say guys don’t care is easy. I also don’t think anybody on this team wants to lose.”

So this is what it’s come to. “Please God, don’t let us get blown out.” We’re MIAMI. Remember? I’m not living in the past, but premium programs don’t get blown out. Period. Guess we aren’t there anymore, thanks to the Kyle Wright Era. Everyone blames the decline on LLLLLarry, but at least he won a natty. The Quarterback is supposed to lead the team as much as the head coach. The “California Golden Boy” never did so much as lead his Stanford Residential Hall floor Halo team to a win in Capture the Flag.

The fact that the quarterback of The U had to use “don’t get blown out” as motivation is sad. If Jacory Harris ever said that mess to his Northwestern Bulls team, they’d mutiny and his helmet would be hanging over NE 62nd Street in effigy. Good thing Harris is going to be wearing orange next season, Wright will too. I hear that’s what they wear on the Rhein Fire scout team.

“Don’t get blown out,” get outta here Kyle, you are not a team leader. The U won’t be back until we get one.
