Fourthandshort...you are a beacon of light around this place and you deserve GREAT props! I eagerly read your posts.This not a reaction over 1 game and you know that.
I'm 100% with Redbird on this one. Punting with a short field...repeatedly. Getting so uptight in crunch time that we lose track of very basic fundamentals - and I'm talking from a coaching perspective. And this kicker bullsheep has gone on much much much too long. These 3 aspects are beyond concerning, they're ALARMING. I cannot believe there's not a kicker on campus who can hit a 40 yarder regularly...under pressure... boot the ball in the end zone...and hit XP's at a 95% clip. Somebody's off-season job, even an undergrad intern, should have been assigned this: To find a kicker with balls. Even if it means a women's soccer player. Sorry for the unintentional faux pas there.
An A.D. with a football background would be borderline livid right now, imo, regarding those 3 issues and its combined ripple effect...on top of a predictable offense. A Coach's wet dream, exclaims Timmy! That ripple effect, I bet, has cost us 2 wins a year the last several years. Football peeps, tell me I'm lying!
Personally, I really like Brock. Professionally, I'm checking out.
Here's why. We're playing a hunkered down, timid, fearful, and terribly predictable game in crunch time. Is there anything more gross in all of football???
I do acknowledge Brock could go out and make 1M a year as a DC for a strong P5. As a head coach...is he getting better?? I don't see it. Bless his heart.
