Ok we can fire Gattis now.

I'm not giving Steele a pass, but I know no matter how much effort or passion I pour into playing my role on defense, it won't matter as the offense is going to lose this game for us. One guy thinks like that, others notice it, then they think it and it's a snowball effect. I'm not saying they are giving up although I expect many have, but the offense is certainly taking a toll on the defense.
I think the defense just needs mfs that can tackle !!!!!!!!!!! He ain’t calling a bad defense . These players just not tackling and getting burnt. He has like 3 freshmen LBs coming in and a 5 star CB and hopefully some high profile transfers

Just remember. Mario stands there on the sideline staring autistically at the game and allows these plays to be called.

He said "We have to establish the run" at halftime for the 9th week in a row.

This is who he is and what he wants.

Doesn't matter who's calling plays. Ponce doesn't have his QBs ready week after week and he's the OC in waiting.
I almost feel like he may have some cognitive deficits the way he perseverates about establishing the run. He doesn’t see the big picture
 
I trust my eyes. I was yelling on this board after the A&M game that Gattis was trash and I had seen all I needed to see. It's good to hear that Cribby is speculating the same thing....but I didn't need confirmation on this to justify what I already knew .
Same as me, brother. I always trust what my eyes see. I’ve been saying it for nearly two months now. If Mario doesn’t do a complete 180 degree turnaround on his “philosophy” we are just beginning the long suffering that is ahead.

He needs an intervention yesterday. He needs to hire a modern and innovative OC and DC, and let them bring in their own guys. Then he needs to recruit and evaluate talent, and get the **** out the way on game day.

If he doesn’t embrace these simple facts, he will go down as the greatest corch in the history of our program.

Yes please and let Ponce finish out the year
Think Ponce may already be calling plays. Look at the formations and plays when Jacurri was in and look at what Ponce ran at App State. When Jake came back in watch the formations and play call change

The fact Mario made that EXACT statement, with those specific words, tells me he's been getting a ton of internal heat about Gattis. That has all the makings of the dreaded vote of confidence.

I absolutely refuse to believe this guy keeps his job. I've seen and endured every ****** coach/coordinator this program has had....and I can confidently say Gattis is the worst OC in the history of this program.

Anyone who even attempts to say Nix was worse will get throat punched. At least Nix can use the excuse of having a punter in the two deep at WR. I honestly have no idea how Gattis sleeps at night.
He’s been getting internal and booster heat about Gattis and the offense since A&M. I’d feel confidence the heat went from simmer to rolling boil.
 
You guys in that much of a hurry to pass the keys to Ponce? You guys know it’s coming right?


Best thing that can happen is for Gattis to be fired immediately and Ponce named acting OC until season's end. This gives everyone a chance to see Ponce as a play caller before Mario has a chance to take the typical UM-easy out solution of promoting someone from a failed staff.

Mario doesn’t have the stones to fire Gattis in season. I just don’t see it

This is one of the worst college offenses I've ever seen.
