CMcAulay99, most of what you said is correct, but let’s not pretend some of this isn’t his fault either.

During the Georgia game, most of his throws were high early, 1 of 2 interceptions was terribly underthrown (the other was a Hail Mary heave before the half). In the Vandy game, half of his picks (2) were forced, thrown into coverage.

He needs to work on his decision-making and deep ball more than anything.

Garcia got booed after his third interception against Vandy. i really dont see where you think Gamecock fans are “babying” him. Fans have been nothing but critical of him this year. There are those of us that still have confidence in him to break out and have a great game. I dont think that Spurrier has let him loose yet because we havent needed him to be “Good Garcia” so far this year. While going back and watching the first 4 games over again, Garcia is not actually performing all that badly. Receivers are dropping balls and running the wrong routes. Garcia is making the right throws, but the receivers arent where they should be. When South Carolina NEEDS good Garcia, he will show up.

Sorry to hear about Gramps, but shouldn’t he already be playing inspired?

I mean, 80,000 fans come out to see you, pay tons of money, you’re on national television, ranked in the top ten (in spite of Garcia’s performance), and people are saying that now, after losing a family member he might play inspired ball? As a Carolina fan, I’ve been embarrassed reading message boards the last few weeks, where people are saying stuff like, “Maybe we should chant Garcia’s name, maybe that’ll pump him up,” and other kid-glove, spoon fed, coddle-the-baby stuff.

If a 5th year senior, can’t take 5 years of practice 36 or so starts, playing his final year, with the best supporting cast he’s ever had, with all the potential to have the most memorable season in Carolina history, can’t go out and be inspired without something drastic (and very unfortunate and sad) like a family member’s death, or something babyish like fans trying to “pump” him up, then what. the. f#ck?

Before this season all I heard from other fans was, “Garcia’s a warrior!!!!! I wanna go to war with that brah!!!!!!” Now you’ve got the same fans wanting to hold his hand and baby him.

Get out there and earn the scholarship, and I’ll cheer when you hit a receiver in stride.

He might be playing inspired. His grandfather died and it is said that they were really close. I think a lot has been going through this young man’s head as of late. Maybe he can “just go play” and enjoy this game. Hope his family is doing well with the loss
