    This is way more than just coaching. All of these players are soft as baby shit. Not one is worth a damn cent of NIL, not one.

    I initially regretted choosing my username, but it has withstood the test of time.

    You obviously do not remember Charlie Shira. But I will say this, even this coach is human. He's not a miracle worker, especially in year one. As the old saying goes, you can't make chicken salad out of chicken do-do. Coach Lebby has a huge mountain to climb; an absolute dearth of talent in 'Vegas. Arnett didn't have a clue; he was dear in the headlights lost. Coach Lebby is not; give the man time!!

    This was always going to be a down year no matter the coach. Last year should have been an up year but Arnett blew it. But Lebby not being able to get an experienced DC that could bring a few players with him doomed any chance of being respectable this season.

    I agree that our offense being this bad with all the offensive acquisitions is very disappointing.

    Several posters knew it was the wrong hire when we hired him.

    Arnett looked almost this bad with a veteran team.

    Arnett had to go. Now whether Lebby is the right guy or not I don't know. Selmon just went with a guy he had an Oklahoma connection with. I don't even think we went through a true interview process. But with all the turnmoil in our program Lebby needs to get at least 3 years to have SOME stability. We can't keep changing staffs every year.

    Lebby will have 3 years at least. I mean we have this same SEC schedule next year except flip the home and away. So we will probably be shit once again.

    Barbay > Hutzler. At least Barbay had been a G5 OC for several years. Hutzler was a ridiculous hire. There were all kind of G5 DCs that would have taken our job. We don't have much defensive talent but we've compounded the problem with bad coaching.

    I'm ok with giving Lebby time but he needs for fire/hire some folks. Our S&C sucks. You'd never see this from a Mullen or Leach team. AND D rules ... over O. Gotta have D first.

    We have to fundamentally change how we do everything football starting with the Bulldog Initiative.

    Pride probably kept both sides from even talking.
