Fire AA


ufmatt isn't there yet, but an experienced consultant needs to be brought in and AA needs to be told to listen to his advise or he will be fired.

I’ve seen enough of the 335 to know it won’t work here.

The Mizz game did it for me

The 4th and 17 wasn't a 3-3-5 issue, that was a due to a lack of situational football awareness by the coaching staff. Had they told d-backs to put their heals on the line to gain and keep everything in front of them, we would have won that game, if we didn't miss 4 tackles and give up the first down anyway.

Rushing 3 and dropping 8 in that situation is absurd

Given time all zones break down.

I agree but how many teams did that successfully to us. They put players at the line to gain, waited on us to throw a pass that was short of the first down, made the tackle and done?

Too bad our defense isn't defending against an offense with Napier calling plays during actual games.

Yes they did, but one thing about that. Our OL is shite, teams could rush 3 vs us n get pressure to force a quick throw, we can’t with our 3, hell, we barely generate pressure with 4.

I didn’t expect much in the SG, new QB, OL with new WRs ect all learning a new scheme.
The defense s always ahead on the installs

Remember ppl Raving about our front 7? No, our shite OL just made them look like the 85 Bears

I hope Lagway has the "it" factor like that WA QB. I haven't watched him much this season but he just makes things happen whether under pressure or not.

WA turnaround

More confirmation top coaches have their crap together some by at least year 3. WA did have a crazy turnaround (I think they used the portal quite a bit) but every power 5 conference champ coach had 10 win seasons (including bowl games) by at least year 3.

Having one of the best QBs in the nation helps.

They repeat without him next yr then I’ll be impressed

lol..That turnaround is crazy regardless of the QB. Would be nice if our next hire is actually competent like some past UF head coaches.

Like TCU?

Good QB in a weak conf can get you 10 wins. Then when he leaves it’s back to reality

We’ve literally had 2 in our history.
And with top HCs demanding top pay and total commitment to winning by the school, not looking good to happen again.

Lol...WA is a good team and can play with good teams at the line of scrimmage. Also was that QB a transfer because I heard you can't do crap in the portal it needs to be mostly just high school recruiting? We are a complete joke now from the coach to the UAA etc.

Zero excuse for the SEC school in the state of FL to be in this position. If the powers that be knew what they were doing we wouldn't have our longest streak of losing seasons since the ending of WW2 basically.

WA isn’t overly active in the portal. (10 players on avg) and only a few start.

Penix was a lucky draw
