What to do about John Emery?

They should make him carry the ball all week on campus like the movie "The Program"

Loose ball pile-up in class
Coach Kelly: If anyone but you returns this ball to me, you will wish you were never born

Ask him nicely to stop fumbling.

Just like Viper said about Maverick after Goose died……”get him back up there”.

Move him to LB or revoke his scholarship after the season. He CAN’T hold onto the ball. I’m not blaming him; he just can’t.

Fumble drills then give him some carries, he's a great change of pace.

He's going to continue to get touches out of necessity / lack of depth. I don't think he will get them in big-time moments, though.

Feed him the rock!
No one more focused on holding on to it than him right now.
So, let him do his thing and fix it.
Emery is solid.

So the guy who scored huge touchdowns against Auburn and Alabama, and also worked his way back from academic issues and stuck with the program..... You want to "revoke" his scholarship?
Edit: Just quit running him between the tackles. Give it to him in space and tell his arse get out of bounds. He is electric but damn it is frustrating.

If Williams is a no go we have no choice but to play emery. Cain by himself not enough

He obviously can't focus, that's the problem.

Take a full practice or two, rip and punch at the ball until you feel he can be trusted. It seems he doesn’t have the natural tendency to protect the ball.

If it doesn’t pour rain again, just keep giving him carries. Maybe give him more throws out of the backfield

Loads and loads of super glue. Enough to cause a delay of game because he can't get the ball to the ref.

FWIW, it was cold and rainy last Saturday. Emery wasn't the only one who had trouble with the slippery ball. Daniels had some trouble as did a few receivers...

Limit his touches in important games. Stress to him the importance of earning his degree.

It is who he is. His upper body and hand strength is not close to sufficient. Needs strength training and he could just have tiny hands.
