    You're talking about small corrections, not fixing the problems. Would you have us burn everything down the first time things didn't go as planned? With the receivers, you're talking about basic accountability. Personally, I'd bench the ones that screwed up and start a less experienced player...

    The offseason is when most teams change personnel, hence that's when there's a supply of coordinators and position coaches to choose from. There's no team in the world that would try to hire a new OC or DC and install a new offense or defense in the middle of the season.

    I would love to contribute to the 305to954 thots about wings evaluation thread.

    I doubt we'll ever see anything like what Butch did as quickly as he did. Bama has built a juggernaut that attracts the best recruits, but it still doesn't compare to the 01 team. My point was that you never know what can come from humble beginnings, not that Manny will be able to duplicate it.

    Sometimes you've got to throw caution to the wind and take a gamble.

    Other than the Mack Brown part, I agree 100%

    I want to get a mixed herd of the screaming goats and the fainting goats. That way when one screams, the rest of the herd faints.

    I know people get caught up in the back and forth, but I think they're both saying something that makes sense. They're not defending Blake James or Diaz as much as pointing out there are very few really good AD's or coaches out there to be had. The way the conferences have condensed, it's a...

    As rough as it was, we needed Mark Richt to point out the painfully obvious problems and fortunately he had the gravitas to get something done about them. Our AD and the people who hold him accountable seem to be using nothing more than revenue as a measuring stick for football. As long as the...

    Please forgive my oversight of neglecting to include the word "college."

    You are correct. He had a 4-13 record as Baltimore's HC.

    Howard, Jimmy, Dennis, Butch: 2 had no prior head coaching experience. 1 had a record of 29-25-3 at his previous job. 1 had a record of 12-10-1 at his previous job and 50-31-1 overall. Larry, Randy, Al, Mark: 2 had no prior head coaching experience. 1 had a record of 27-34 at his previous job...

    Richt fell in his lap, Manny was out the door and got called back. DiMare got promoted. If Coach L leave do you expect anyone other than Caputo to take over? Even Coach L's son, who would be a pretty good choice, would only happen if Coach L drops it in his lap. Blake James might know sports...

    My comment is more about the dearth of great coaches. If there was one out there like Urban when he was at Utah, I'm 100% sure Blake James would've never noticed because he didn't fall in his lap. It takes a commitment to excellence from everyone involved and too many AD's and coaches have...
