Hello fellow mongers.
I rarely post, but do read a lot of what is shared here. I don't want to repeat what others have already expressed here - just my thoughts on the current state of the program, what should happen and what will likely will happen:
1. I want to make sure that UNC did not spike our water supply with Xanax or Indica weed; because we looked stoned and useless. I was about to get our defense a couch and some Doritos instead of being out on the field.
2. Its time for Blake James to go and leave us alone - he's done a decent job in some areas, but not when it comes to football.
3. We have massive deficiencies at the LB/CB/S level - none of those guys belong on a Top 5 team. Not even Bubba Bolden who I really like.
4. We have an even greater deficiency at DC - led by Blake Baker. A person that continuously gets out-schemed and bailed out by Manny. That needs to end ASAP.
5. When it comes to Manny, not everything is back. But not everything is good either. He is too much of a players' coach - and this is what happens when disaster strikes; your players do not fear you and won't react appropriately.
6. Our OC has been a nice addition, but what has made it all work is QB King - lets see how our OC does next year; and please stop making him sound like Mike Martz with Kurt Warner & CO.
I believe that Blake Baker will be dismissed at the end of the season; I don't have any inside info but to me this is crystal clear. If Manny does not make this move, he will lose his job after next season. I also believe that there will be 1-2 more changed on the defensive side of the ball. In terms of what should happen, I hope that we can increase our budget and hire additional people to help support the program - we are still understaffed when compared to elite Top 5 programs.
The university has made positive changes under Frenk after a much maligned Shall regime that elected for cheap Chinese dry wall over quality American components. I hope that they keep addressing the deficiencies and bring us back to where we belong.
Happy holidays and God bless.
