re: Rumor: Check Yo Sauces..Morris calling plays in Oxford?

Honestly every coach should be given 4 years. Pretty sure win percentage shows that the longer the coach is there, the results are better. We can't get into firing coaches every 2-3 years.

I only cursed twice. Pretty good considering the amount per game last year.

It’s just a reflection of society in general. You can’t be “in the middle” anymore. Either you love something or you hate it, there is no middle ground. If you don’t hate Morris then you must be a sunshine pumper or a homer instead of just being a rational person. I’ve also mentioned instant gratification which is also a problem with sports today. Win now or get fired, but instead of that timeline being reasonable (multiple years) it’s been shortened to a single season or two. It’s ridiculous tbh.

Sure you can.

It isn't instant gratification to expect an SEC football team to be shown to be well coached on the field. Even if the talent is a shite show the good coaches have had their teams looking like they know what they are suppose to be if they can't do it.

Saban's teams looked like this his first couple of years at LSU (shite talent) and Bama (mediocre talent). Petrino and Bert for the most part their fist two here, etc.

Chavis's defense is showing the signs. Chad/Craddock's offense not so much.

I really do not think it is too much to ask for his offense to show their identity by now, even with a "vanilla" "basic" whatever you want to call it shite show there should be an element that is their identity. Are we a read/option based team? Are we a run first team? Are we a tempo based team? Are we a team that will lean on the defense to win a game or a team that will rely on the offense to outscore the opponent.

Chad has talked about having to "dial the offense back" an awful lot last year and this year, he has a QB who you would expect to at least know the offense starting in Hicks (who was an elite 11 QB out of HS). He has said and it has been said his offense relies on a QB who knows the offense, but lets not kid ourselves, the WR routes, blocking schemes, run plays, etc are not nearly as complex and genius as he wants you to believe.

Basically to paraphrase this rant, It isn't being un-reassonble for the Razorbacks to look well coached even if they suck and don't have the talent to win most games, thus far Chad's team has not shown this here.

The receivers screwed up routes a few times. Ben was obviously irritated a few times. On the flip side, he didn’t see wide open receivers a few times which pisses me off more from an upperclassman. Don’t bang on your Freshman receivers for running short routes if you can’t find them wide open when they get it right.

we will probably be ok. atleast we didnt collapse. I feel like that setup like a collapse then we ended it with an int and victory formation. the defense won us the game thst a good thing

The last few years we would have been beaten in the 4th. We were not as gassed and did not give up. From where we were that is major improvement!

I think we are going to boat race OM. We have the team to be aggressive...funny our best player on D made more mistakes then anyone Saturday.

One thing is obvious, just watch the 2014 Clemson tape. It takes a smart QB with a little wheels and a big arm to make Chads system work. Taj Boys proves that. Ben Hicks shows 0 of those skills.

I don’t know when, but at some time this year Starkel will be the starter. He may not have the big wheels needed but he’s light years ahead is Pick 6.

I’m not sure why Chad decides to pull him after two series. It’s not like he’s an inexperienced freshman.
Maybe he’s got a bunch or stupid in his head from being around Kevin Sumlin and we’re trying to reprogram him.

Chad's offense at SMU was great, the defense was the reason they didn't win more.

Not sure what his record there has anything to do with his play calling.

Impatience is real, but like Lat said... We cant have instant gratification like we want, like we feel we pay for with donations/tix. It will take some more time which absolutely sucks.

I didn't hold 2018 against Morris -- I'd venture a guess that even the most negative Nancy knew last year was a write off before the first snap.

I just wish that for once we'd have a coach leave us in a good position for the next coach to have a year one like Malzahn did at Auburn in 2013. Feels like we made some deal with the devil for Holtz and Nutt's inaugural seasons in 1977 and 1998, respectively, and our program has been cratering through coaching transitions ever since. Save for Nutt's initial seasons, every damn coaching tenure has been a multi year rebuild since Hatfield took over.
