I know. I was referring the his comment that we would be better on offense regardless of the qb.

Yeah. Right.

Best (and most honest) writeup I've seen to describe what's happening. It's goes way beyond X's and O's and who gets to do this or that on the field. It's a fundamental lack of understanding of how to drive men to excellence and that applies to the players and coaches. It's not Gus' fault that he got promoted WAY above his abilites but he is at fault for not recognizing his shortcomings, finding peers to learn from, and evolve as a coach. Now, either this year or next, he is going to be asked to move on, and he will be one of the most financialy fortunate people around. Let's hope that AU looks hard and the coaching tree of the next prospect and that there is plenty of branches and fruit on it.

I don’t really care about our ranking anymore. Re-rank a Gus top 10 class after two years and it would fall out of the top 25 due to the washouts, burnouts and defections.

A lot of people focus on this but Leath was on the job 6 months when this decision had to be made. One decision out of all the other decisions a college president has to make. Being an outsider he had to go off the advice of others. I feel certain that some BOT members and influential supporters would be more than happy for Leath to take the fall for something they are actually responsible for.

But we have a team full of very nice and respectful players and coaches. They just don’t play football very well.

Yes and perfect doesn’t happen much. If that’s what you rely on you’re looking at a lot of losses. Just like we see now...

Stidham 12-17. Ain’t the problem. No running game and spotty dB play is the problem.

Exactly why (developed) 5* guys make all the difference

Their guy - good our guy - not as good those are the match ups a good offense looks for.

Everybody plays with youth and inexperience. Jus’ sayin’

On the first drive we'll run a slant from the right instead of the left and that will be the extent of the Bye week innovations.

I’m of two minds: I think we win because of “C” I think because of “B” we lose since Gus will have an extra week to “tweak”

And give Gus that all-important "hook" to hang his visor on.
