Eric Lee Poking the Bear

Apparently, not all of the college football stratosphere has grown enamored with East Carolina senior QB Shane "Cap'n" Carden, who brings the  nation's seventh-ranked offense (581.5 ypg) to Raymond James Stadium on Oct. 11.

Count Bulls DL Eric Lee among those yet to be bowled over. When asked Wednesday about Carden, who has more career 400-yard passing games (five) than USF's entire program (one), Lee said: "Nothing special."

"He's like any other quarterback. He's short, that's...the only assessment. Of course you can't underestimate or overestimate though. You've just gotta go out and come out here and practice for whoever is in front of you."

Naturally, Coach Willie Taggart begged to differ. Incidentally, Carden, who already has thrown for 1,469 yards and 11 TDs in only four games for the 22nd-ranked Pirates, is listed at 6-foot-2.

"I don't think (Lee) was looking at the same East Carolina film," he said.

"Really talented football team. The quarterback's a stud. You watch the kids play and they play with a lot of confidence, they play fast. ... They've all been playing together for a while now, and you can see it in the way they react to negative things that happen in the game. They don't get flustered or anything, they respond, and they respond fast."

is carden is 'nothing special'

 

what does that make our QB?

[USFbulls24]

Ay yi yi. No one on our team should be saying "he's nothing special" about any player on any team across the country given how our entire team has been "nothing special" for 4 straight years.

Hope our guys can back that up.

[BayIslandBull]

Seems fairly innocuous. Someone is just trying to make a story out of nothing.

He's right, nothing special.

[Fold FB Invest in BB]

I don't mind any DL poking any bears, just hope the secondary doesn't pay the price.

I guess these are to even things out ....  Our player takes shots at an opposing player so some of our fans feel the need to take shots at our players?

Stupid, just play the **** game and focus on what you have to do.

Like they were going to anyway if the opportunity presented itself .... we took their spot in the BE, remember? 

 

Is Carden better than Bortles? I'm guessing we had fans saying the same thing about UCF before the game last year ..... this is why they play the game.
