Love the wins.. but.. We need an OC

That post aged well!

Referring to the first part about his recruiting. We already have one of the top WR rooms and reportedly, we're not done yet!

 

An OC hire would give Billy more time to be HC, and, so, hiring an OC is in his best interest! With that said, he's a "good playcaller," according to Shane Matthews and Steve Spurrier; and I value their opinions over my own!

 

Lame assessment. We picked up 2 of the top 6 WRs this class. Recruiting is not an issue.

 

I agreed with you but perhaps you aren't aware that gatorstrackman posted this on Dec 7th which was before Wilson flipped. It was, however, still premature and well...perhaps one should be cautious using hyperboles like "never" because 2 weeks later things began to look entirely different!

 

And then theres the part where he has brought in good receivers every year.

 

Absolutely! Perhaps he was talking high school recruits...

 

His quote was “continue to fail” …not sure what his bar is but talent wise our WR room is easily top 10 in the country.

 

The wrong OC makes it worse, the right one better. Billy is betting our improvement continues with the status guo.

 

I wish you were wrong. But until proven otherwise, history says you are correct.

 

Look at the offensive numbers. They have not been good. I've said the terrible defense could definitely play a part in the offensive statistics however just pointing out that the offense has been awful in the 1st and 3rd quarters in particular and there has been no trend of improvement in those numbers. I don't think he's a "bad" playcaller myself but he has several situational headscratchers and I think the biggest positive would be his focus to organize the rest of the team if he did get an OC.

 

Actually, I tend to believe it's something he is entertaining. If he makes the hire, I would like to see an outside guy whose philosophy compliments but adds to it, if that's possible. An internal hire would not mean much to the team.

 

I think we are all aware. I am open to the idea of an OC, not that my opinion counts for #%*@.
However, this one point has been hammered daily since the first game of CBN’s career. We have all seen missteps and coaching replacements every year.
The concept is valid, even with our recent improvements. But..just a thought….
Please RESIST the tendency to make some announcement at a late date ..on a subject we have already performed 1000 autopsies, and are in full agreement upon…
As if we just discovered missing facts that Bobby Bowden would overlook homicide to justify keeping a starter active.
We know it..already.
and Moses already gave us the Ten Commandments on two tablets. Actually, TWICE.

wait..just in..Tim Tebow is going pro.

 

what do you think Shane and SOS would say alone in a room?

 

I hate to say it but if he has a blind spot /stubborness about his play calling - winning those last 4 was not good- he has ammo and that may be the thing that keeps us in dangerous Jimbo/Jeff Fisher type middling territory

 

Jeff Fisher? He’s never lost in Jacksonville so that would be ok…

 

I fail to understand the point of your response. Was this directed at me, because I'm not following, what announcement?

 

SOS: You shouldn't have thrown that out pattern vs Alabama in 92.
Shane:

 

Not specific…
My point is only this, to whomever, most here have signed on to us needing an OC, or at least considering it very strongly.
I thought this concept had been rehashed a lot and this was not a new topic for the board.
My only point.

 

Why am I here?
