It’s going to be miserable until we hire someone who can recruit, coach up players, and make decisions that are in the best interest of winning each weeks game.
Thing is, he knows he has the golden parachute and then he can get him a sweet, sweet DC gig somewhere making a cool mill a year.
Hes not gonna need that chute for awhile either. They ve coached the last 6 quarters like they know it too. Hes making recruiting more difficult by the week. They lose to Arky in 2 weeks and they may not win another game.
Wonder how many 3rd down conversions we would have this year with Maurer back there, compared to JG. His feet are a weapon and would help rbs too by being a threat
You would think that was sarcasm. I didn't listen to the post game, but apparently that was considered our best offensive performance of the season.
He was, I figured the guy working for the University of Tennessee on Saturdays may have some inside info. He didn't
I understand the reasoning as you can't have a team of kids who arent getting on the field, yet performing better in practice. I also understand needing to adapt when necessary and some kids just don't have feel when the lights turn on. Yes JG had 2 or 3 good deep throws yesterday. Yay. He also had us walking off the field over and over with green turf in front of him to run but chose 100 mph staring throws to unopen wrs and dbs already breaking on the route. I wish Maurer hadn't had issues, and on his only run yesterday he almost got himself hurt again. I wanted him to come in as a freshman and win the job. Imo our offensive energy would be up, we would have longer drives, more 3rd down conversions instead of throwing stick routes on most of our 3rd and mediums, and more rest for our D, which is the worst defense between the hashes in the passing game I've ever seen. Vs Ky, Running the ball all game, some rpo stuff with Maurer, rollouts and few deep throws and we beat Ky instead of getting blown out.
I heard and analyst describe JG's instincts like this yesterday..... Watch other QBs; they anticipate where their receiver will be and throw the ball before the receiver makes their cut and looks for the ball. JG waits for the receiver to turn around and look at him before releasing the ball; giving DBs time to recover.
My belief in that actually happening is just about non-existent. We're a complete mess in the national mindset. Coaches like Dooley, Jones and Pruitt initially look like they'll be successful but seem to get burned out and quit.
I will always wonder how great Tyler Bray could have turned out if he was under a competent coaching staff.
I could understand it if JG was a Jr. But he's a senior, won't be here next year, and is a big part of our brain dead offense. This year is lost, gone, over - develop for next year you sorry sack of shit.
I had the same feeling about Butch. It’s not fair to judge a guy based on the way he looks, but from the first time I saw that dude I pegged him for a hanger on, over his head, loser. He could recite the lingo, but had no idea how to materialize those thoughts into success. He coached like 7th graders play Madden.
