Part of me thinks we should take the extra practices if we get a bowl invite. Part of me thinks we're better off calling it a year and starting the defensive staff overhaul + portal acquisition process. I lean towards we're going to lose our last game anyway...
That's irrelevant to the discussion being had at the time. His point was that having a bunch of seniors on the defense can make any DC look like the perfect fit. We have a senior and upper class laden defense now and we're shit. He's clearly wrong and demonstrably so.
No... There are more than two options. But Sark isn't going anywhere this year. The best case is replacing PK and money whipping the fuck out of Muschamp. Pay him almost as much as Sark. I don't want aggie sniffing around Muschamp when Elko leaves.
Might as well play all the backups whose red shirt you don't care about. Don't risk playing anyone who might be important for next season. FML
We need to break out big bags to win some recruitments.
Figure things out? This isn't on the job training. He's already supposed to know the job. What we've learned is he can't coordinate an entire front and back end defense and apparently didn't bother to learn to do so while he was co-coordinating with Lake and Yates. He didn't bother to learn how they did their jobs on anything more than a surface level or we wouldn't be in this mess. That says to me he's intellectually lazy and only cared to do his specific job well in his one system. Continuity? Please... he needs to show he's worth the effort because he looks in way over his head.
I don't care what his resume was. He's been shit here and it's looking very obvious that he was carried by Lake\Yates and a superior head coaching talent in Petersen.
Throw $5 million at Muschamp. Sound crazy? Head coaching salaries are going to be $12 million plus in the next couple years. Coordinator salaries are going up as well. If Elko leaves aggie, they'll throw at least that much at Muschamp and make him say no. We need to use our considerable resources... Sark needs an elite DC.
Only cook is playing well. We have a coaching problem. Almost all players are playing worse than they were last year and they're almost all upperclassmen. PK has been a disaster.
Stability is great if you have the right coordinator. We made a mistake in PK. he apparently can't coordinate the entire defense and needs someone like Lake or Yates to coordinate the defensive backs and passing game defense. He's basically an intern when it comes to coordinating the entire defense.
PK has to go. You can see the light at the end of the tunnel on offense. The defense is truly horrific... a sad disaster. The defensive personnel are demoralized and don't believe in the system.
He's lost his half of the locker room. It's over.
I hope to hell the new DC is flying in today and will be announced tomorrow. Or hell, just reassign PK, hand the reigns over to one of the position coaches, or the new DC analyst, and make the new hire in the off season. But fucking do something. We cannot go another game with PK at DC.
He needs to be fired. He's shit and has lost the defensive locker room. There's no coming back. Muschamp isn't available... How about Jeremy Pruitt? Compliance needs to be told to fuck off and overruled.
Burnt Ends is about the future, not the present. We need to get talent to campus to help this team out. Yes, it's painful now. Cancelling just makes things worse for you and the team.
He's a very talented backup for Clemson but was only a .95 rated player out of HS. Those two programs are probably only interested in sure fire starters or very clear 2nd team players. He's got a great chance to start for us, but we're in a very different place in regards to our line depth. We'd be a very good spot for him.
Despite all our issues, we're still a superior place to be for a WR than aggie. There's 2 open starting spots available right now and X will command the double teams leaving the other WR's with mostly 1 on 1 match ups.
