The praise and admiration he gets from his fellow teammates says a lot. This kid is special. After reading that article I think I see what has developed in the locker room over the last three games.
We have a chance to go 6-6. But it won't be b/c of Joe Moorhead's coaching. It will be b/c Garrett Shrader put this team on his back and carried it there.
As long as he doesn't try to leap from the 5 yard line, then yeah he can carry the team on his back all he wants. Probably the only player on the team that has the grit to do it.
I am convinced out TD drive against Tennessee was entirely him ignoring the play called from the sidelines and doing just that.
I said the same thing in the stands on Saturday. Our last 2 plays on the drive were the same exact play. We had Thomas on a deep drag wide open both times.Quote:

We lost our first game to South Alabama after Dak left. Player leadership means a lot and it is why I am not giving the players a free pass on the soft play this year.
That is why honest communication with any team is critical. Joe talks to the team as if he is the physics professor and that ain't exactly the manner in which one gets a point across to our team. Anybody can give a pep talk in pregame but it's the 6 days of prior preparation where we lag.
GS by himself may change it a little but overall ... Joe is Joe. He's not tough and he won't be able to rebuild and then sustain a tough team.Quote:

He might be a good OC again ... but he ain't an SEC HC.
HAHAHAHA!!! SO Moorhead didn't recruit him? Moorhead isn't training... LMAO!Quote:

Until he is winning less than Mullen did, you don't have ground to stand on. So far, he has not dropped below that of Mullen.Quote:

Yep, I thought about that the other day how DM screwed that up. Fitz plays the whole game we don't lose to USA. It took Dan a few games to finally figure out who to play. He should have known that.Quote:

He is below Mullen in losing to a team with a losing regular season record if Tenn holds to form. They may be a 3-4 win team themselves. And that number could also increase this season if we play the same like last Sat.Quote:
