Support upgrades to coaching staff and NIL to get more portal players. Hire a guy to evaluate under rated talent.
Fire him. Next year the schedule is probably worse and we are no better right now than we were when Lebby arrived. We were for a moment but have regressed since.
Believe it or not it?s way deeper than that.Quote:

E. Drayton said it all. I'm not smart enough to copy another post. But he summed it up 100%..
We hired a first time AD, HC and DC. We literally signed up for the results we are seeing. Our admin. basically knew this would happen and they will throw another season onto the flaming alter of stupidity before they make a change.
If your goal is to end up with a service academy head coach, fire Lebby. You fire Lebby, and no credible coach will even answer the call from us. Particularly with the other jobs that are open.
Need a real defensive coordinator first and foremost. Hutzler is not it and defense could not top a team of grandmas on walkers the last 4 games of the season. Lebby gets another year if he does that. An OC would be nice too.
All 3 "service academy head coaches" would be an improvement over Lebby. Was that supposed to be an insult?Quote:

Yeah. As long as we run the ball all the time and abide by a bunch of conventional theory tropes instead of being aggressive and analytically sound.Quote:

I guess this is where I stand alone.
For me, I don't care what offense we run as long as we win. I dont care what defense we run as long as we win. I don't care where the coach comes from as long as he is a successful coach. I get the service academies aren't flashy but they are winning with $0 of NIL money. Newberry has done a great job, imo.
I'm not calling for him to be our coach. I wouldn't throw a fit about it if he was tho. He has done more with less and I think that's the kind of coach we need if they decide to fire Lebby.
I am 100% against a philosophy of defense first, run the ball, win TOP and all those other tropes. I?m not willing to be the SEC team that wants to see if a service academy coach will change his philosophy.Quote:
