I hated chaney at first, knowing we hired him just for pittman. He's starting to grow on me and his playcalling has been getting better.

I have noticed tendencies, especially at tennessee to choke away games, but I do like the improvement and I think his play calling will work once we're more experienced.

He definitely has improved with his play calling since last year. In fact, almost everything about the team has improved since last year. We also have some good recruits coming this next year and in combination with the players we have returning, I have to agree. We can only get better.

One thing about Chaney -- I'm skeptical that he's the solution at OC, however, Bert has shown before that he'll kick a coach to the curb who has shown that he's not cutting it (Markuson). Maybe he's seeing something with Chaney we're not regarding the calls, who knows.

I've been an ardent defender of Bert from day one, but the only thing that concerns me about him offensively is what happened with Matt Canada at Wisconsin. From what's been made public, apparently Bert got more involved with the offense after Paul Chryst took the HC job at Pitt and started overruling Canada's game plans for play sets. Apparently Canada stood up to him before the Big Ten title game and Bert relinquished control, and that's when they went beast mode and hung 70 on Nebraska in Bert's final game. I also thought it was telling that he didn't bring Canada with him to Fayetteville. Who knows, it could've just been a bunch of crap passed on to the media from Alvarez or a Wisconsin malcontent.
