Title: ok...we're stuck with Butch another year. What has to happen
Post by: Volznut on October 04, 2015, 05:07:39 EDT
debord and Jancek need to go end of season. Same with Azzani. Mahoney. Hire some competent coaches.

Bench Dobbs. Go with Dormady the rest of the year.

I'm okay with staff changes, but not wholesale like you suggest.  we did that with Dooley in 2011 and it was a disaster.

I'm not sure about Jancek yet.  To me, the D has played really well for most of the game but then lost it in the 4th.  I think this has generally been true with the exception of two drives by Arkansas in this game. But if you look at OU and UF, depth had a lot to do with it.

So a staff shakeup might be the way to go, but IMO it will only get you so far.  It also depends on how this season goes.  If Butch does a lot worse than expected, what good coach would want to come here?  And would he do better than Sunseri did?

The D did not play well last night.  Arky stopped themselves more than we stopped them.  Their QB missed a lot of open receivers early.  We couldn't tackle long hair and the QB all night.

Overall I agree, but there were good plays at times.

Yeah, that we kept giving up runs to that rastafarian-hair-wearing POS made me ill.  But Arkansas does have one of the best OL in CFB.  I wonder if their OL coach is available?   :banghead:

their OL is OU caliber in certain areas ...

Our DEs have similar discipline as when Brooks was the coach (see the long backside pitch/run to their left that sealed the win).

Say what you want about Brooks, but I can't count the number of times we were completely rebuilding the DT in the 00s, and every year a DT or two would emerge and be great.  The man knew and could develop talent, whatever issues anyone else had with him.

oh, I agree about Brooks and for reasons that 99% of the board has no clue about.
