And for the record it was about the inferiority complex statement he made when I jokingly said narcissistic douches can't have an inferiority complex. Had nothing to do with pulling together.

Exactly. This board is a great example and includes some AR lovers and a jr high offense coordinator that are absolutely insufferable.

But it's leaps and bounds more today than it was just a few years ago. We must be grossly mismanaging our resources. That's poor leadership.

Yea. If this board is any representation of the rest of our fanbase, we are more divided now than ever before.

Increased bureaucracy most likely.. People like to create fiefdoms, hire their buddies, enlarge their salaries a great deal, entrench themselves in a system, etc.

Someone with some charisma.

Then run an offense that is exciting and does something crazy like score points. And no it doesn't have to be the Air Raid. Although it could be a modified Air Raid. Could be the Veer and Shoot. Could be a pass first pro style offense like Washington. What we run looks like a shitty high school offense. People don't want to pay hundreds of dollars to watch something that they can see on Friday night for 10 bucks except with our guys running into each other and not knowing which direction the play is going half the time. It's boring as hell and we're sloppy with it. Run an aggressive blitzing defense like we all love. Be good on special teams- do the Dog Pound Rock and don't half ass it. Bring back the Mad Dawgs Special Teams unit. Have the Mad Dawgs symbol be a pirate flag or a skull as a tribute to Mike Leach.

The first time I KNEW ZA was not going to work was after the Arizona game when he stated we didn't throw the ball so we could rest our defense. You think Kiffin and other innovative offensive coaches today give a rat's ass about resting a defense? Today's football REQUIRES scoring and being good on offense. Having an old school defensive guy like ZA as HC is antequated unless you want to play like Iowa.
