re: If it took GP retiring to get rid of Henson, I'm happy.

if you told me we're keeping Pat Ivey and Coach Kul and our new home run HC hire is blowing out everyone else - I'd be fine with it.


I wonder if Rhodes is watching this and changing his plans real time.

Like, if he was thinking hire Odom and keep plugging along, he'd better be realizing its worse than he thinks.

I think given the hand he was dealt, Odom has done a terrific job. But the defenses of the previous two season feasted on creating turnovers (and points off of turnovers) and this one just doesn't. It's an unfair knock, I know.

When you look around football most of the great HCs are offensive side coaches. I think, in part, because defensive coaches are by nature more conservative. Trying to control offenses. The great D-side HCs are the ones willing to surrender control on offense: Saban, Belichick, etc.

Guess what I'm saying is if they hire Odom he'd better have a strong, creative OC and OL coach in mind.

This is how bad the coaches are,

In 3 years, Hill can't coach a qb to complete 55% of his passes.

Jones can't coach a rb to challenge Witter for playing time.

Henson and Ricker can't coach up an OL even with 2 prospective NFL picks.

Despite recruiting athletic talent, Washington can't coach routes. The announcers comment on it every game.

The cb's can tackle but the last 5 games they always seem to be trailing the receiver.

Seems like Pinkels loyal assistants know that no team will be lining up to get them so they have shut it down. There's no passion in their eyes, no coaching ingenuity, certainty not trying to be bowl eligible. Its sad.
