re: Josh Henson

I was listening to parts of the radio broadcast and Howard Richards mentioned the need to get Abbington (at his elite size) up to speed as a priority. It just doesn't seem to happen, does it?

Doesn't make any sense to me why Chase can't get carries. Screw the depth chart. He's big, he's fast and he runs to contact and is not an easy tackle. He'll get it faster getting more reps during games. Ish doesn't like the contact. He folds up just before a hit. Hans does but he's hurt. Hunt had no carries. Abbington had no carries. There has to be some reason why Hunt and Chase didn't get carries against probably one of the best defensive line in the SEC. Pinkel likes the quick score. He seems to be in denial. He doesn't have the horses right now to do it. That means a slow clock eating offense.

Yep, you should probably have been the coach all along.

Damn dude get counseling, did Pinkel give you the Sandusky treatment

so then you're another pinkel toilet bowl plunger, good for you then, when morons like you think you have some "rational" advantage at thinking it's always amusing for those like me who actually do know how to think.

apparently he's just not that "coachable" whatever that's supposed to mean, maybe he's the Maty Mauk of RB's?

Pinkel got out coached badly in this game

I agree and it pisses me off. UF coach is a damn good coach, but Pinkel should not lose to a new coach of a team.

diamonds in the rough dude, diamonds in the rough..

sounds like we agree, Pinkel needs to go out and find an OC that knows what they are doing and not stick to this fantasy that "I can just train one of my coaches to be an elite SEC OC, like I WAS back in WashU"...

and for those who want to insist it's "Henson not Pinkel", Henson has already stated the play calling all goes through Gary, he's kept himself in the decision loop on offense, so no, you can't place it all on the underling and think Pinkel gets to walk away nice and clean.

This isn't on GP this year. It falls on GP's shoulders if he doesn't do anything to correct it, i.e. get rid of Ricker or Henson or both or have them get with the plan right away.

This year falls first IMO on Ricker. Line has been horseshite since he first came here. Cut him some slack to start, figuring he was new and maybe his schemes or language were new and it would just be a matter of time. Well, time has come and gone and it's only getting worse. And that's with 2 guys on the line who will likely be playing on Sundays. And I'm assuming he's the one deciding to play the guys he's playing and where they're playing. McGovern at LT. Abeln at all. frick his player assessment.

As for Henson, the play calling is and has been atrocious more times than not. Whoever is responsible for the RB's has to go too. Witter is not and never will be an answer and whoever can't get the other guys up to speed or is conscientiously choosing to continue to run Witter out there should be fired too.

My biggest gripe though is with the line. The other issues could be corrected if the line were playing a a junior high level. Plus, the odds of getting rid of everyone are slim, so I'll take Ricker.

And fire him before he gets our freshman QB killed. I don't even care about winning at this point. Just get him experience without getting him killed. Oh, btw, might be a good idea to get your young OLinemen some experience too. They can't be any worse than the harry horseshite stuff being trotted out there now.

That's what he wants.
Just ignore him.

What a moron.
