Title: I am not going to jump off the train because we have lost most of our offense to

Injury but we do not look well coached the last two weeks.

I love Dooley and really hope he can get it righted, but it's not only talent. It's technique too, all over the field.

Yep, you've seen it on both sides of the ball. Poor tackling technique just now cost us 5 yards and an injury to Waggner.

I was going to post almost the same thing, but didn't for fear of sounding too critical.  I like Dooley, and he appears to be a hard worker, good disciplinarian, etc., but his coaching needs to grow into being SEC-capable or the other stuff won't matter.  It's not just technique either; too many mental mistakes.  He has my total support, and he deserves much more time, so I hope he uses these tough times to truly grow as a head coach.

Yep... He has to get at least five years... And I've seen signs of life here and there... But right now we just don't look well coached. Easy to nitpick with 8 and 11 on the shelf and 15 long gone.

Exactly, it's the little things that we shoud be improving in..  That we are at times showing no improvement.

I think we are improving in some areas, just not where it shows up against the teams ahead of us in the SEC.

But, it falls on Dooley for sure.

It just drove me crazy that Clay Doofus said he was on the hot seat. We have to have continuity for a while even if Dooley doesnt pan out.

Clay cares about furthering his career and getting attention, plain and simple.

Exactly... And we all know why he used that specific term "hot seat" in light of Barbara Dooley's actions of the previous week.
