Ok, I read the full question and answer. Just goes to show how big of a role context plays. Classic political move to take someones words out of context and drum up a false narrative. Hhahahahahha
I really think his heart is in the right place. He wants this **** turned around as badly as we do. ****, his livelihood and lifestyle depends on it. When you get down to it, the question everyone is asking in so many different ways; "Is he talented enough as a coach to be capable of turning it around?" and if he is, "Why can't he tap into his talents and make progress immediately with the current roster?"
Agree. Dude is honest, diagnostic, etc.
This style of offense isn't going to work because we don't have the personnel to run the ball like Mario and Gattis want to. See below for how putrid this offense is compared to what has worked in the past. The only way we're going to succeed with the type of offense Mario/Gattis want to run is to have elite physical offensive linemen and that is going to take 2-3 years of recruiting. And given the amount of losses that will continue to pile up with this offensive style he may not even be able to recruit this type of olinemen since recruits will be expecting some results before jumping in the boat. But yea lets continue producing 18 pts per game and see how this shakes out.

I would be happy if instead of saying "we gotta get back to work" he said "we gotta get back to work but we also need to evaluate what's working and what's not working - and make changes accordingly". That would signal to me that he's planning on doing an honest eval and is willing to change for the good of the program. When I hear him say we gotta get back to work all I hear is we're going to keep doing the same thing and improve the players without wanting to address the scheme/coaching changes that are needed.
Any offensive line regardless of scheme or style should be able to get enough push to get a half yard. Any defensive line regardless of scheme or style should be able to get enough push to get into the endzone from the 2 yard line in 4 tries.

We are less talented than duke. Forget the fact that their 1st year head coach went in raw on mario. Not even any spit. ******* dry!!!
The scheme changed drastically from week 4 to 5. ****, even changed in the duke game before TVD got hurt. Let's see if it continues. Lets see what they do on defense. Everybody harping on the offense and I think more creativity is needed on defense.
****, he basically said it himself after the game. Changed his tune to not embarrass anybody I guess.
That sequence should in no way, shape, or form lost the game against a Duke-level squad.
This offensive line couldn’t get a push last year either and we were able to produce 16 ppg more. If we had adapted our scheme/coaching this offseason to our personnel we would have at least been as productive as last year which would have yielded at least 2 more wins. Changes need to made this off-season or we will continue to flounder.
They absolutely changed the scheme but it was too late and it’s still not producing enough points. This staff tried to fit a square peg into a round hole all off-season and then tried to make a change in-season when it was evident it’s not working.
