Real Question

[VaCane17]

AG will only get another head coaching job up north or at Vandy because he seems to fit their mold. or he would be dc anywher except the SEC. i wouldnt put him in the Bo Pelini boat. BO has baggae that some just cant handle. im just affeled still as to why Nebraska fired him. glad they did we might actually be able to beat them this year

My biggest issue with al is his conservative nature. We're up 23 -10 against fsu and we go into our prevent offense/defense etc. Fsu got some lucky bounces, but they wouldn't have mattered as much if we had tried to pour it on instead of protecting our tiny lead. That loss killed the rest of the season.

That loss killed the rest of the season? Lmao. Pathetic in its own right. Pussys and sissy's lay down and accept while warriors build on experince and get better.

Yawn.

EVERY team in college football plays a schedule loaded with cupcakes. Every one. Don't act like it's only Miami. 9 wins is 9 wins. Next.

Other teams may be padding the schedule also. You think that's gives miami a pass? Lmao. Bottom line is golden's body of work speaks for itself. He's never beaten a team worth a dam.

Notice how you failed to mention another team like Lsu might win 9 games but they actually beat a couple teams wipth a pulse and they have a coach who is proven. That's the difference. If you think 9 wins are the same across the board you are a lost cause.

You know they actually measure strength of schedule, right? Like, that's a documented statistic you can go look up from an unbiased source.

Miami has had pretty decent schedules. I'm not buying that argument at all.

Ok then Name all the great teams golden has beaten in his career. Name all the teams with 10 wins he's beaten?

Yea miami has played tough schedules lol. Got smashed by any team worth a dam but hey they played and beat a 9 win Cincy team witha. Fluffed up schedule you just talked smack about. Yea that makes sense.

First of all, you know that MOST TEAMS lose to teams with "10 wins," right? LOL this is basic.... if a team wins 10 times that means you only have two losses. So that means other teams are going to average like 90% losing record against you.

So yeah, it would pretty much make sense for Golden or any other coach to have a losing record against teams with 10 wins lol.

Add to that most of his career was at TEMPLE and rebuilding at Miami, and what the **** do you expect?

2 years ago I was fine with the result. Last year, I was disappointed and thought we were a better team than our record. But next year we should return a pretty good team, and we'll see how they do.

Wouldn't surprise me either way actually.

Didn't ask you that question. You just formulated another excuse and incorporated it into a worthless post. So you can't name a team worth a dam Golden has beaten then.

Goldens whole job at temple wasn't rebuilding. Another pathetic excuse from you. In his forth year he had more all confernce performers than any team in the Mac and a lot of those guys returned from the year before iirc. That was def. a fact in year 5. Again, not only did he not beat. A team with ten wins ( teams you claim everyone loses too lmao). He couldn't beat a team in confernce with a winning record. He underachieved. It's the samething that's just happen'd right in front of your face.

The evidence is right there in front of your face. If you have big *** knees and a purple neck chances are your ghey.

Maybe it is Golden's fault that the team quit TWO YEARS IN A ROW after losing to FSU. But then again, maybe that's on the players too for quitting.

A coach can't MAKE you play hard. These kids that gave up.... that's on them. That speaks to who they are as much as it speaks to who this coaching staff is.

Yet another person blaming players for something that has repeatedly happened under this staff. Same coaches, different players same results...that's the coaches.

Same players as the year before. And this team has had attitude issues since the Coker years. You gonna deny that?

Cokers influence on this team is long gone. Dumb suggestion. What was USC's attitude before carrol got there? The were losing strong for 10 years basically...comes comes in and they win 10 games In year 2 and never look back. Same with ou when stoops got there. Foolish to bring up Coker.

I think the problem is recruiting. And culture.

Recruiting: we've had such a hard time keeping the local kids here. The talented kids who leave are the ones with the attitude that they are self-made and want to make something of themselves. The ones who stay are staying for "family," and I don't want to talk bad about anyone, but in a lot of cases those are mommas boys.

So we have a whole team full of kids who are only here because they wanted to stay close to momma. Add to that we have a president and AD who have prioritized getting choir boys, a coach who likes to give time off and play dodgeball and who hates to tackle in practice.... and you've got yourself a soft *** team which I think last year reflected.

They most definitely quit after the FSU game. No doubt. And then a lot of them went on to do what all soft-*** people do when things go wrong - whine and blame someone other than themselves for their problems.

Sorry but this post is full of bs. all confernce teams and players making NFL teams with some starting tell me different. The culture thing is misunderstood by guys like you. Pete carrol, stoops etc all went to programs who lost for years and turned things around quickly Why didn't the so called INflunce of those previous coaches bother those guys? Fm right? ( ***** Magic)

If you're gomaa go out your way to make excuse for this guy atlEast get an UNderstanding of cfb. Do you think golden is the first coach to ever take over a program that has underachieved years prior?

 

[Rellyrell]

We all agree Golden doesn't want to be here, correct? If he has another dumpster fire year, he can forget ever coaching at a D1 school ever again. So I'm asking, do you think that this pressure will force his hand to go all out to have a good year so he'll have a little bit more luster to his name and become a commodity on the coaching front again?

How is he suddenly going to be a good coach?

Based on his explanation of his previously convoluted question, I guess Relly thinks that Folden's failing because he hasn't tried hard enough yet. If he tries harder this year because his future is on the line he will succeed.

LULZ at the **** I read on here.

@ Franchise: Asked a question, didn't say I thought anything, pot-nah. The reason why I asked that question is b/c when we were calling for his head at the beginning of the season, all of sudden the defense amped up, were smashing everyone, including FSU for the first 3 qtrs and then Golden became Folden again. He rest his laurels on Moral Victories and he got burned. So I don't think anything, I'm asking for opinions.

And while everyone else was celebrating the miraculous metamorphosis of Folden into a genius at midseason, I cautioned people that nothing had actually changed and that we had merely beaten the **** out of some horrible teams. He didn't go from lazy to hard-working and back to lazy during the course of 2014. When you have a team as talented as ours, there will be times when things just happen to click. And that's what happened when we won a few games.

Dudes try too hard to figure this stuff out. Sometimes, coaches suck. There's no need for all this head scratching and wild theories. He's a piece of **** HC. Head football coach is a job just like cook, barber, doctor, etc. Just because you hold the job doesn't mean you're going to be good at it.

I agree w/ you whole heartedly.

I know I'm in the minority on this one... but I actually think Golden will get it turned around at Miami. I think he'll succeed reasonably well here, and go on to another head coaching job.

Two years ago we won 9 games. Last year, we were in every game we played, and the only reason for our record IMO is that the team quit on the coaches and on each other after the FSU game. That should have been a 9/10 win season. We didn't only win 6 because of coaching, that happened because our players gave up. It is what it is.
Next year, we'll be even more talented than last year. I think a 10 win, ACC type season is very possible. And if that happens, you add in the 2016 class, and we've got this thing pointed in the right direction FINALLY.

Maybe that's just my over-optimism, but I could see it playing out that way.

So because we won 9 games last year, you think he'll turn it around? You realize that those 9 wins were smoke and mirrors, right? Struggling to beat UF and Wake, at home, no less. Non-conf games of Savannah St and FAU. It was a sham. It was exposed by Louisville in the bowl.

This past year, the schedule was even easier. And we performed worse. The team next year will be less talented.

So yes, it is your over-optimism. Al Golden is not a good coach. Period.

9 wins is 9 wins.... and the Louisville team we lost to was better than it was given credit for. I think they finished 11-1 or something.

The only "mirage" was losing 7 games last year. That only happened because the team quit. That team should have won 9-10 games.

I don't understand what the team "quit" means. Exactly how do they do that and what is their motivation?
Do they want to look like puzzies on national tv, in front of their friends and their families? What about NFL scouts, a lot of players have pro aspirations?
Do they have suicidal tendencies?
I don't know about you or them but most people with goals find it hard to give up on those goals.
Did they have a team meeting and agree to lay down like puzzies or was it a silent agreement.

So a team quitting en masse doesn't make sense and individually they know the next guy wants his job.
