Your point is so obvious I’m not sure what to say. OF COURSE our coaching has sucked. That is not controvertible. Who in the world disagrees?My point is that our talent is good enough to beat our schedule, which it hasn’t done in a decade... which is coaching.
So if we wanna beat the elite with the coaches we’ve had, we literally need an nfl team. A decent one too.
My point in response - and I have been saying this for 17 years now - is that our shiity coaching has also led to ****** roster management, ****** recruiting and ****** plenty of other things.
Too many people, perhaps including you, have bumbled around over the past two decades trying to insist that our talent wasn’t an issue. It has been, at least relative to what we expect the program to achieve. But yes, it has been plenty good enough to win more than we have. That’s basically the definition of bad coaching - we underperform our talent level. And for sure we have had bad coaching.
But make no mistake. If we want to be nationally relevant again - not just win the coastal - we need better everything, and that includes recruiting, evaluations, roster management, S&C, development, schemes, game planning, play calling, motivation, all of it.
