I’m not concerned about players leaving.

We need to hire a winner.
No restrictions on his staff.

Durkin. No one else wants us with restrictions and constantly rotating HCs.

Our O has has been inept for three years. Our O has looked much different the last three weeks. IF our guys could have caught the ball tonight, I think we win. Pavia made us look bad. Did you watch what he did to UT today? There are places to place blame. Blaming Durkin is moronic.

Who on this team are you concerned about leaving? Simmons? Cobb?

Not sure much should be made of Durkin’s three games when it comes to Cohen’s decision. That’s such a small sample size compared to the rest of his resume. Use the bulk to make your decision.

All that said, I’m hoping it’s not him.

Durkin was a great DC tonight fellas.

But as HC he wasn't strategic enough.

These 3 games should always have only been like 10% of the equation. The way they went imo yield no change in the Durkin evaluation.

Can’t even believe he’s being evaluated. It’s hiring a coach coming from a losing staff.

How so?

I didn't like kicking the FG from the 3 but it turned out to be the right call.

He didn't drop every pass, he didn't fumble the tying drive in the redzone, he didn't throw those ridiculous flags to sustain the game winning drive.

Well he hasn't done anything as a HC in his career that says he's a great hire. Also losing has to count for more than 10%.

That's what I don't get. Inept coaching has been our problem. Tonight was on players executing..............or lack thereof. Coaches can't catch the ball, hold onto it, and make tackles.

Losing is a disease. I don't want Durkin ofr any other member of this staff retained because they are carriers. The last thing we need is them infecting the next coaching staff. Give the program a huge dose of chemo and a massive enema and lets party

My assessment would be that these 3 games were just more of the Hugh tenure playing out. This team was already mentally losers before Durkin got a hold of it. He neither passed nor failed in these three games. The eval should be based on interviews, planned staff and vision casting, and any prior data as a head coach

JGT said he got a text during the game that said FL was reaching out to Golesh. UF seems to be just copying off our paper this search. Those idiots

No.

But he let time run out before half time settling for the 3, while were down by 14. Loser mentality.

He let time tick away in the last minute of regulation while we were only on the 45 while our offense isnt a well oiled machine.

He let Ashton run the play on 4th and 2 after he just got hurt while trying to avoid the sack. He should have called TO because that play was critical and we were lucky it didnt bite us in the arse.

He should have coached Coleman to get out of bounds beforehand.
