EZ-E Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 Maybe this is a result of Barney's feelings being hurt because Bo's always screaming at him. At least up there Bo can't poke him. Oh, and if Beck and Taylor have the same brain...well, let's hope it's a huge positive this year. I think this is writing on the wall. Barney is to bring along Garrison or Stai or both, and then sail off into the sunset. Do you think he might be up there to help Beck with play calling? Just wondering if maybe Bo wants someone else up there to bounce ideas off of---NOT saying I would welcome this, but it's a thought other than get the hell off my bench, Barney. With all of Barney's family on scholarship, do you think we'd can him? We wont "can" him. We will either help him actively seek employment elsewhere (Watson and Gilmore) or he will get an assistant athletic directing job. One of the two. He will get a "Big Opportunity that he cant pass up at this point in his life" after the season. Quote Link to comment
Ratt Mhule Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 I think this is writing on the wall. Barney is to bring along Garrison or Stai or both, and then sail off into the sunset. I don't. I see it as a new play caller having someone with experience with him in the booth. You could be right. I regret writing that line about "respect" because I have zero idea if the players do or don't respect Barney. I wasn't even thinking about what I wrote, and that was dumb. I'll start the thread titled "knapplc said something dumb". Original, eh? 1 Quote Link to comment
billdozer15 Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 Barney away from the field =good, Barney helping with play calling = bad, I don't know what to think. Quote Link to comment

zoogs Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 This should work out great, because Beck's offense is pretty much exactly how Cotton would design an offense. So naturally he will give good input. Between that and the telepathic connection between the brains of Beck and Martinez, we should be good! Quote Link to comment

After three years of Callwatts play calling, I'm not worried at all. Quote Link to comment
Scarlet Overkill Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 After three years of Callwatts play calling, I'm not worried at all. Visions of 2003 dancing in my head... 74th in scoring offense, good enough for 10th in the Big 12, only worse than Baylor and ISU. 1 Quote Link to comment

Scarlet Overkill Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 Yes, but Barney was the OC. Quote Link to comment

Well, so glad we fired Frank/Bo/Barney for those glorious Callahan years. Visions of 2009 dancing in my head.......99th in total offense even with a weak sos (thanks to three SunBelt teams we cremated). Progress......love it!! Quote Link to comment
Scarlet Overkill Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 Heyyyy... I thought *I* was the only one allowed to use stats to illustrate my points. Quote Link to comment
bshirt Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 lol! That's ok, you're right that 2003's offense stunk to high heaven. J. Lord and .....nothing. 2009 just took it to another level. :-) Quote Link to comment
