They and we have never seen us look that bad against UK. We pound UK on the ground all the time. We scored 0? Easy to understand the frustration.
    THEN YOU DON'T HIRE MIKE LEACH AND HIS AIR RAID!!!

    Yeah - its easy to say "wait until Leach gets his guys in here" unless you are on the team and have worked your ass off all summer and this fall only to have your coach not run an offense that could beat the team you are playing.

    Imagine having Dan Marino as your QB and you tell him, sorry Dan - I run the triple option. So either get on board, or screw off.

    I think it is so easy for some of our fans to crap on the players who really work extremely hard, basically year round and when they are frustrated to be losing to Kentucky in a pretty embarrassing fashion when they know they have the talent to line up and whip UK's ass with a power spread option running game. I mean I feel for the seniors who have worked hard for 4 years to have a senior season and not be put in a position to win games for the sake of an offensive system.

    And all those players had to do was search Mike Leach on YouTube and realize that the days of running the ball were over. He's not going to change and never will. This is why I personally was against hiring a guy so married to a system. But I'm not turning this into another Leach thread. It's been discussed ad nauseam. The fact is these players had 6+ months to find a new program if they weren't happy or didn't like the system and there'd have been no hard feelings. But to now reverse course and act like they had no clue what they were getting into is just ridiculous. It's time to either get on the boat or get off. I hope we used the bye week to figure out who really wants to be here and by the looks of the transfers we did. I'm gonna support fully, and probably b**** at a few times, the players we got left. But if their hearts aren't in it then they need to find something else to occupy their time.

    Hell even Spurrier changed up his system for a running back.

    Huh? Spurrier had some of the top rushers in the SEC at Florida- Errict Rhett and Fred Taylor and for years his offense was primarily under center.

    That's what he's saying. His Fun n Gun, pass happy offense, adapted to running because of the talent he had.

    Then throw a block and execute the damn offense. Hard work means jack shit if you cannot block 3 with 5 or if you cannot understand how to sit down in a damn zone defense or at the very least find the areas that are soft inside the zone. It is damn embarrassing. You had weeks to get ready for the 3-8 prevent defense and the players from QB down to the backup damn right guard cannot execute simple shit.

    Ha! No worries, I'm good. Just sick of all the posts about Leach changing, what he's been successful at for 20 yrs, four freaking games into his tenure. Not sure why I'm surprised though... this board is the king of overreactions. Hell, Dinkowitz at Missouri is a coach of the yr candidate, according to some, even after a fluke win vs LSU and a horrible loss to a crappy UT team.
