    they aren't afraid of nor do they respect the coaches. If they did, they would exhibit some enthusiasm.

    ^^THIS^^

    It's either there or not. I believe it's the latter. We have the heaviest OL in the league but also probably the weakest from a S&C prospective.

    I agree. No speed on defense. None.

    No playmakers at WR. A QB that can’t see the field, watching the rush.

    When these hayseeds get Gruden for HC and Marino for QB coach next year, they’ll be disappointed again.

    Strange that all this shit talent was projected by ESPN for 8-9 wins. You probably think that we maximized our wins with last year's mediocre talent.

    It's all of it folks. A ton of folks said this was a 6-7 win team. We have the talent of a 6-7 win team.

    Problem is we have a coaching staff and head coach that doesn't elevate us at all. But let's be clear. We don't have anywhere close to the talent the upper middle tier has. We are clearly better than the cellar of the SEC. But numbers 4-8 in the conference are way the hell better than us and that wasn't the case most of the time under Mullen.

    I think the excuse makers in this thread would be pleasantly surprised next season if this subpar talented team had a competent coach

    Extremely. We do what needs to happen and hire Norvell, Napier, Clark, Hud, etc and this team is completely different next season. I can guarantee that we will be much more prepared and give more effort with any of those guys, just from watching their current teams.

    You are correct sir. We have plenty of talent to win 6-9 games every year with a competent coaching staff.

    When you play a FCS team coaching doesn't matter as much - you should straight up be better than the man opposite you if you're an SEC player. We can't cover their receivers, our DL can't whip their DL, our OL is not totally dominating their DL, or WR aren't getting open very much. We simply are NOT winning 1:1 much anywhere. Call it coaching, call it S&C issues, but we simply look like crap a ton.

    If you took the names of the jerseys off would you think this was an SEC team vs a FCS team?

    You obviously don't realize how easily bad coaching and S&C can make decent teams look extremely bad. It'd be one thing if they were just calling their own plays, yeah you're scenario works. But not here.
