Brinkley throws Gerg under the bus
Linky

Quote:"That was very frustrating," Brinkley said. "I wanted to be in the game, but at the end of the day it's a coach's decision and the coach decided to put somebody else in. I wasn't hurt or nothing. I wasn't tired. I mean, my momentum carried me throughout the whole game. My adrenaline was rushing from the first play. I ain't get tired throughout any minute of the game.

"It was a coach's decision. If it was up to me I would have played more, and if it was up to other people, they probably would have wanted to play more. But the coaches wanted who they wanted out there, and all I could was listen to them and, you know, respect what they want."

Oh, and that was a true freshman making his first appearance of the season who was in instead of Brinkley. So instead of calling on his best player when he was needed the most, he took the redshirt off a kid.

That's a man who is on the verge of losing his job and is panicking.

It's not just that, but he burned that player's redshirt by playing Bailey(?). I was at the game and folks were just stunned that he did that for three snaps.

That's a man who has already lost his job. He just doesn't know it instinctively yet...
