Something about team chemistry builds wins. These coaches seem to have forgotten this. Or the we will go with the hot hand/guy who gives us the best chance to win etc...
It was game 6 or 7 before we even had the same secondary in. 3 games left and this staff is still trying to "find what works". I really thought that was what spring and fall was for.
I understand that the guy who practices the best plays, BUT your leading WR has been absent 2 games. A dynamic game changer on the side lines. REALLY. If this holds true, then wht not use a healthy threat in Green, A or Herd over an obviously injured/worn out Rex. After his first carry he was limping. If I could see that from the confines of my living room, surely a coach saw it in practice or on the sidelines.
I have finally come to the conclusion that this staff has a lot of learning to do before we reach that place where we all want to be ie playing for the B1G, BCS Bowls, MNC, stomping upstart teams like NW into the ground, establishing at least one friggin season where we go undefeated at home. I no longer think that this staff, in its curent configuration can get us there. Year 4 and the same glaring issues ie lose to lesser teams, poor discipline with penalties, blown assignments, lack of depth, lack of playing time for back ups, stubborn streak etc etc etc
Last week I was singing their praises, but this weekend, reality sunk in. We can't judge success on one game ie UDub part 1, UT in 2009, Mizzou in the rain or even yesterdays loss, but in the totality, we are lacking in some fundemental areas if we really hope to get "there". Perhaps my "there" is more lofty than most, but we fired a 10-3 coach..................
