Well the roster in 2012 was talented enough to play for a natty one year later.

Jeff Brohm calls the plays for Louisville

I don’t care if the head coach is calling the plays if he’s competent at it, and can juggle that with all other aspects of managing a program. Brohm has a proven track record of being able to do that at a Power 4 level.

The problem is when the coach who is calling the plays refuses to evolve, and is too stubborn to admit when the game has passed him by, or when he isn’t even present for all the meetings during the week and is calling plays on Saturday, or thinks that the plays he’s calling on Saturdays are the key to success over player development, fundamentals, discipline, and attention to detail.

I do get why we are gun-shy about going after someone else who calls his own plays. But I don’t think that’s an automatic show-stopper, and would hate to see us not hire who might be the best choice for that sole reason.

I’m certainly not panicking yet, but we seem to be doing the same thing we like to do in football where we crown mid-to-downright-bad teams when they beat us or play us closer than expected.

…and it blowing up so badly, give Cohen the political capital to make this hire on his own? Because I trust him a whole hell of a lot more to conduct a professional search and make the right hire than I do Rane & Co.

Or do we want someone who will change our culture?

This kind of shite is how we ended up with Harsin as our coach.

…when they hired this no-character clown.

… it’s official that we don’t give a shite about football anymore.

Look on the bright side. At least we ended up with positive 4th quarter yardage.

As long as yellabelly is alive and throwing his weight around, it won’t matter.

Maybe he’ll make another run at Houston Nutt.
