Y'all realize we never had first year QB start under Petrino during his first tenure, right? Mallett was sitting behind Dick learning the offense in 08 before he started in 09.
I do. That's my biggest concern with petrino is we're no longer in that structure where kids stay and get developed....we're in an era where the coach who can get the most value the quickest out of athletes are building the best teams.

Petrino could have found better QBs from the portal.
Boise was happy to dump him on Arkansas.

The pressure isn't on Petrino because he doesn't care. That final decision is on Sam and with his seat so hot, you don't take a chance on Green. If this was year one then yes but Sam isn't really worried so it doesn't matter.

Are any of these OL Petrino guys?
Could you imagine if we had a Dick or Mallett with no legs and this OL?

I don't know but it looks like they were shopping at the clearance section at Walmart.

Granted I think Mallett would be a bit better at hitting those quick slants over the middle to help relieve some of the pressure. He also could read a defense and audible at the line.

The defense gave up two sustained scoring drives all game. They were put in a bad spot for A&Ms second TD. Are we seriously trying to blame the defense? Are we watching the same game?

Once Pittman is fired Green will be gone as the new coach isn't going to waste his time with a RS senior.
They made that decision because both knew they wouldn't be here next year.

Just trying to figure out why your logic applies to our defense but not A&M's when their offense was just as bad as ours. They gave up 0 points in the 4th quarter.
A&M's defense was on the field longer than ours. What's the excuse?

Accept reality we need to find a coach who can come in get transfers, and get the absolute most out of them immediately. Then we need to selectively pull high schoolers that make sense and will be here for multiple years. Waste zero effort developing any player for another program and instead focus on maximizing what we have as quickly as possible.

If our OL wasn’t a shite sandwich they would have. Multiple guys open downfield meanwhile Taylen running for his life bc the DL beats the snap to him

Why couldn't our DL get the same type of pressure?

Not sure I can fathom how anyone would blame the defense for this loss when our dipshit offense committed 3 turnovers (one of which was on our own 10) and another one in the form of a forehead slapper of a fake kick attempt that of course failed miserably.
Starting field position is a key indicator as well. Ours was our own 18 (it was well inside that until late in the game), whereas A&M’s was their own 34. We could never flip the field on them on offense.

The initial excuse was being on the field too long, but now it's been brought up that our defense was actually on the field less than the opponent, so now I'm curious as to why they shouldn't be held responsible for being unable to hold a lead in the final quarter.

It’s certainly not an isolated incident with Pittman who has a more than adequate sample size.
6-16 in one score games, with one of those 6 wins being the Liberty Bowl where we were beating the shite out of Kansas and let them off the mat to force OT.
