But, we didn't hire a receivers coach this time either. After very publicly striking out on WR coaches we hired a RB coach from football powerhouse FIU to be part of the best coaching staff in the history of forever. What makes you think this guy is ready to be a WR coach?

Besides, it wasn't Leak's fault. Think he doesn't know the route tree? Think Roper didn't? They purposefully dumbed down everything for the Big Dummy trying to find something he could do well. We took away the read from the read option because he couldn't do it. He admitted it in several interviews. We simplified the passing game trying to make it easy for Big Dummy. It's as simple as that.

As for smurfy slot receivers, I'm not a fan. They get blasted by LBs and knocked out for the month or season. I much prefer hybrid TE types in the slot.


Wow... there is literally not one positive thing in there.

"This year it's a lot of different routes than the little corner route or over route we were running last year every play"

That says a lot about last year's coaching staff!

So apparently he thinks we'll lose to one of NMSU, ECU, UK, Vandy, or FAU.

Law just throws this crap out there in the hopes of being able to say "I told you so". If we win more, then he says he's happy that we did better than he "thought" we would. It's a win-win situation for him and one he's grown to love.

Kinda like I did when I predicted Antonio Morrison would be All-SEC? :dance:

BTW, he's on the Bednarik Award watch list to start the season. I know they put a ton of guys on there, but good for him coming off a major injury to be included on a list like that.

We are underdogs at UK. ECU is a tossup. Actually was a tossup. Losing their QB means an easier win for us.

And I've said 4-5 all along.

You said recruiting was gonna suck and had zero faith in Mac and crew and all the while I said we were gonna be just fine. When I went to say I told you so, I got attacked for being one of those guys. Now, I say have some faith in our staff and our players desire to win and your gonna be proved wrong again. This time, I will say I told you so no matter what. If I am wrong I will gladly admit it but I dont think so.

By whom? Not me. I'm a big boy. I can take it.

It's just a message board after all.

You can take it...that's what I like about you. A few of your minions are touchy AF though. :lol:
