that think Austin Box sucked it up on his first ever start...
I kindly ask you to answer the following questions....
How good was Brian Bosworth in his first start?
How good was Curtis Lofton in his first start?
How good was Rufus Alexander in his frist start?
How good was Rocky Calmus in his first start?
How good was Teddy Lehman in his first start?
I thought Austin Box did a decent job in his first start. Yes, sometimes he was out of position. Sometimes he got caught up in the blocks. But please remember this was the first time he seen significant playing time since his Senior year in High School, let alone his first start in college.
So please, give him some time...If he is still playing like he did Saturday come the TTU game, then we should worry about him.
And by all means....Please do not even suggest that the defense gave up a lot of point last week thanks to him. It take 11 guys to play defense.
