MH and MJ two of our coaches (you can figure out who they are) went to Moorhead after the Florida game and told him we need to go back to power run game. Moorhead or should I say hardhead refused. He told them this is the offense I run and we are going to run it my way. The 2 coaches came back to JM the next day and told him this team was not set up for his offense and if we ran it against Auburn we would lose. They told him if he allowed them to go back to the power run game and we lost against Auburn they would turn in their resignations. He agreed. This is what happened you can believe it or not either way I don't give a 17. I will give him credit for listening maybe a learning curve for him I just don't trust him with the future of MSU football Yet.

You are a pathological liar desperate for attention, and it's blatantly obvious to anyone with any common sense.

I guess it really doesn't matter, why. All i know is Moorhead adapted, made adjustments and we won. He can't be to hard headed if he made those adjustments. These stories and rumors get changed and exaggerated the further they get on down the line. Now I can believe the coaching staff having a meeting and Moorhead asking everyone what can we do to perform better offensively and taking suggestions and then making changes as a staff. I doubt very seriously if any ultimatums were issued although it makes for a good story. I have some friends who have kids on the team and they laugh at some of these rumors. One of our QBs is married to the daughter of one our baseball coaches at our high school, so I get a little info too.

Yeah this didn't happen. Complete fantasy or an exaggeration at best. Somebody that is pot committed to hating on Moorhead is making shit up to devalue positive changes made that he deserves credit for. I have no doubt that assistants have put in their $0.02 on what their players are not capable of. That's your job. A "do it my way or I resign" ultimatum to your boss will effectively blackball you from your livelihood. You'd have to believe that everyone in this scenario is dumb or spineless for it to be true.

So two assistants gave an ultimatum to the head coach and apparently the two assistants and/or the head coach are telling other people that this is what happened. Seems legit.***
I actually think this is a good plan. Each week let two assistants come up with a game plan and tell them their jobs are on the line. We should win out.

10-12-2018, 01:17 PM
Yeah let me get this straight, 2 coaches were willing to throw away hundreds of thousands of dollars in salary and be forever branded a coach who will quit if the HC doesn't run the plays he wants... all because Hud and Johnson care so much about us winning an extra 2 games this year? Forget the smell test, this doesn't pass the logic test. Theres a ton of stubborn HCs out there, how many assistants quit mid year because of that? None, that's how many. Our assistants aren't more passionate than every other assistants in football history.

The two assistant coaches, that you are referring to, going to JoeMo as you described, is less than 25% believable (although I don't think it happened). However, you really blew it when you mentioned the possible resignations, and JoeMo agreed to it. Just for information, those motion running back sets were already in JoeMo's playbook he brought from Penn State. He just hadn't shown it till the Auburn game. Apparently for some reason, you don't like JoeMo and any time you can take a jab at him, you don't seem to waste anytime doing it. A little bird says maybe you wanted Pruitt as our HC.

I can say this, there is some stupid crap on this board sometimes. Most I try to ignore, but some is just stupid. This ranks up there with "Jacob Billingsley sucks because his parents didn't know how to raise him", and "Christian McCaffrey isn't as good of a running back as Alec Murphy, Ashton Shumpert, Dontavian Lee, or Brandon Holloway". We have some dang good posters on here, but I do hate stupid people with no sense.

MarketingBully

Joe’s offense will work in the SEC with a QB who can pass. He’s having to adjust on the fly because A) Fitz can’t read what the defense is doing pre-snap and B) can’t read what the defense does post snap so Joe is having to really dumb down his offense to the point of having Fitz just make the read based off whether the defense is going man or zone pre-snap and what the end or linebacker is doing post snap on the zone-read option. Even then, Fitz made the wrong reads 2-3 times last week that could have made us blow out Auburn even more - 1) the 4th down play where Fitz kept it to sneak in the TD - give it to Hill and Hill walks in, 2) Fitz kept it on 4th down and was stopped - give it to Hill and odds are good Hill houses it, 3) pretty much every 3rd down play where Fitz kept it if he gave to Hill he scores a TD just because the defense had stacked the line and committed to stopping Fitz. The 350+ yards we got on the ground honestly could have just as easily been 400+ had Fitz made all the right reads. If Fitz was just an average passer, our offense would be unstoppable. He’s so bad at passing Joe has had to adjust his offense to run 70-75 percent of the time just to fit Fitz’s skill set.

Every alumni group JoMo talks to, he mentions (not in speech in front of the group, but in one-on-one conversations) how excited he is to have Garrett Schrader coming in as a QB. That's his guy. He is confident this offense will be at its apex when GS is ready to go.

Yeah, he would have been the heir apparent to McSorley had Moorhead not gotten our job. He’s a passer first and a very fast runner as well. A true dual threat. I think he gets a very good shot at starting next year.

I hear ya. I'm posting second hand info trying to get a fix.

I'm not going to call you a liar. I don't know you or what was actually said between the coaches or your with source.

I do believe the offensive coaches had a meeting about changing things up. David Murray said so on Wimberly's show. I have no reason to not believe that.

Now, what was said in that meeting might be where some of this is coming from.

The telephone game skews so much info and as sufferers of MSU induced PTSD, it always gets spun to the worst possible outcome.

I have a feeling that Joe tasked the offensive staff to look at the film and figure out what needed to be done moving forward. That staff came to the conclusion that our passing game wasn't adjusting fast enough to the new system to be successful at a high level and that the best option was to focus the offense on the power run game. I bet Joe's "resistance" was "let me sleep on it and we will talk tomorrow." Joe sleeps on it, and when they get together the next day, they go over the options again and make sure it is what they think is best.

Nothing about Moorhead from day 1 says he is some stubborn ass who thinks he invented football. We know what that looks like, we lived with it for 9 years. Joe is cerebral. He is measured. He thinks. He wants to have the back of his guys, and before he does something like shift the entire focus of the offense he is going to look at all angles because he doesn't want to impact the confidence of the players. I wouldn't doubt if he went to team leaders on offense and talked about it before fully deciding.

That is a helluva lot more consistent with the Joe we have seen in interviews and heard about from other coaches and writers.

Extremely plausible. I don't get that Joe is the stubborn, hard head he's being made out to be.

Lets get this straight now, it went from two assistant coaches putting their jobs on the line, but then they didn't. Then Cohen steps in and gives an ultimatum to get this sh** straightened out or else? Cohen is not going to try to micro manage JoeMo. He hired JoeMo to run our football program. A first year head football, and one who was his man, and then not even halfway through the season he gives him an ultimatum to get this straightened out or else talk. I guess Cohen is going to tell him who to recruit too, and give him his game plan. Get real. All that would be discussed at the end of the season, if necessary, when they were discussing goals, achievements, etc., concerning the future of our football program. What Brunswick posted is so much closer to reality than what these other posts have been. Oh, and Mullen invented offensive football. Just ask him and he will probably tell you that. I have never heard JoeMo make any claim such as that, and he has not shown any arrogance or stubbornness either, that I know of. He just wants to get us to the next level, and he is passionate about that.

No matter if you believe it or not this is absolutely the story that is being circulated from people who know. How much is embellished I don't know but you can believe hud and Johnson went to Moorhead about going back to the running game and he refused but after the first practice he changed his mind

Which is entirely a different story than what the OP said. I can see coaches approaching Moorhead about changes. Good staffs collaborate, assistants make suggestions, and the head coach has the final say. I can't see them offering a resignation and Moorhead accepting.

MH and MJ two of our coaches (you can figure out who they are) went to Moorhead after the Florida game and told him we need to go back to power run game. Moorhead or should I say hardhead refused. He told them this is the offense I run and we are going to run it my way. The 2 coaches came back to JM the next day and told him this team was not set up for his offense and if we ran it against Auburn we would lose. They told him if he allowed them to go back to the power run game and we lost against Auburn they would turn in their resignations. He agreed. This is what happened you can believe it or not either way I don't give a 17. I will give him credit for listening maybe a learning curve for him I just don't trust him with the future of MSU football Yet.

There probably isn't one person on this message board that has any "inside scoop". Just a bunch that think they are a message board hero! Post crap and always include the part, "believe it or not". Thats usually a very dead give away not to believe it.

It?s pointless bringing things back up that you had inside scoop on around here. Credit will never be given where it?s due. I was ridiculed for weeks when I posted that Keenum got in Lofers and Danny Two Gloves asses after South Alabama and laid out the ultimatum. Break up the CC and give effort in recruiting or they?d both be looking for jobs soon. Was told I had no idea and no knowledge even though keenum told this first hand to a direct family member in the presidents box a couple games later. Guess keenum was lying.

One CC member was sent packing after the season and Benedict Arnold started looking for his out right after the keenum ass chewing.. That?s why Two Gloves was going to TN before Florida came knocking. He wasn?t going to listen to Keenums direction. He was leaving one way or another.

I think it is more of the fact that someone would feel the need to have their ego stroked on a message board 4 months later... You throw enough sh** on the wall and eventually something will stick. JC has had it out for Moorhead the last 6 months despite the fact that there was absolutely nothing or no-one that vehemently opposed the hire when it was made.

You only have so much you can go off of when making a hire and you won't fully know if you made the correct hire or not until a year or two down the road. Much easier to look back in hindsight and say "dang that wasn't a great hire". Which we still don't know how good or bad the hire was considering we still had an above average season historically speaking.

Some of you expect Alabama results on a cheap beer budget and will never be satisfied. Just look at all the fans dogging Howland while we have our best team and roster in nearly a decade instead of sitting back an enjoying us being pretty good again. You can moan and groan if we don't make the tourney with a decent seed but until then sit back and support the team.
