I think the question is, why John Gruden? What has he done since Derrick Brooks and John Lynch that warrants that dude being our HC?

Sometimes I miss the Miles days then I think back to how horrendous we were at QB play with the exception of Flynn


I see someone already mentioned JaMarcus. What about Zach Mettenberger? At the time he was on a short list of LSU QBs to pass for 3,000 yards. Without researching, I am pretty sure it was the first time in LSU history to have a 3,000 yard passer and 2 1,000 yard WRs on the same team. Throw in Jeremy Hill and that team was the first with a 3,000 QB, 2 1,000 WRs, and a 1,000 yard RB. Everyone loves to say the end of the Miles ear was 11/12 season when we lost the Natty. The few years that followed were powerful offenses. Then the line of bad QBs and the spread offense becoming the norm really began and Miles didn't adjust.
There was a huge portion of people in here with the notion that he was the “best coach we have had here since Saban.” The other two were idiots. So there are a lot of quiet ranters also coping with this fact.
I too am reluctant cuz of his lack of experience, but the Lions have great culture and buy-in. Hopefully he is learning that and could bring it. And with him you are opening the door for getting former players and great leaders like Pat Pete and the honey badger and so many more from around his era who are bound to get involved. Would be a bold hire but it can’t get worse than this lifeless era.

Bingo! There is no better way to describe this experience other than the exact thing we would make fun of Notre Dame for and exactly what ND fans warned us of. The only difference is ND would play cupcakes and get embarrassed in the post season. We get embarrassed each and every time we start to gain some momentum.

What in the swamp monster retard is this? O didn't put together that staff, he kept most everything ales had in place.


Dropping retard and being way wrong is hilarious. E was the TE coach for Les. O promoted him to the OC just like BK made his QB coach, Sloan, the OC. BK gets criticized for that promotion because it has been bad yet O should also be criticized in your eyes because it was a good promotion and made O look good…got it. I’m the retard. Joe Brady was hired by O from the Saints. So again, wrong. But yeah O stealing a coach from the NFL should be a criticism of O because it made O better. Makes sense! Ya got me on Aranda, Miles hired him a few months before he got fired. But yeah one of the hottest names in DC and to become a HC at the time decided to stay with O because he believed O was a swamp monster retard. Again, makes sense! BK has a long past of loyal coaches stick it out with him like Denbrock, right? Your take makes no sense!
quote:

Swamp Monster is a distant #3 .. terrible coach that lucked out having Aranda, E/Brady and Burrow


Yet one BK's biggest flaws is the fact that he brought House and Sloan. "He can't hire quality assistants." Is what keeps being said in here. Yet, O putting together a great coaching staff and getting Burrow is simply "lucking out."
So one of BK's faults is he can't get quality assistants but one of O's biggest faults is he had too quality of assistants. Make that make sense.

How about immediately after the 2012 championship game? Lol.


How one could not enjoy the Mett, OBJ, Landry show and the years of Fournette and Guice rushing for like 200 a game is crazy. Those were fun teams that ran into the machine that was the Saban and Bama heyday. If Saban and Bama didn't exist the later Miles years would be so different. So many times the season was cruising right along until early November and then was derailed because Saban was that good. 3 of 4 years with BK the season has to be salvaged because we drop the opener.
He gave us a pretty discipline team?!? How many drives are killed by procedure penalties? Main reason we lost the USC game was a bonehead personal foul. A boneheaded personal foul jump started Ole Miss Saturday. How many times during his tenure have we had to come back from 14-0 or 17-0 first quarter deficits because we come out of the locker room like shite? How often do we go into clutch time needing time outs but don’t have any or just one because we constantly use bad timeouts? How often is BK yelling and screaming at people because we are disorganized and undisciplined? How often is he saying, "coaches need to coach better?" How is any of that a mark of discipline?

I get the Miles and O parts even tho I liked those guys. Their time came and went and they should’ve been fired. They got fired so BK could come in and be an upgrade…but it is BS to say he has been.

Yes Kelly has said dumb stuff and will say more dumb stuff, but he’s not as bad as Les was and he’s not as bad as O was.


What?!? Les made me laugh and O made me want to run through a brick wall. BK is nothing but :rolleyes: :banghead:

We could be on a 2019 type run and I'd still think BK is a tool and a douche. Sure losing helps people dump on the guy but he brings it on himself. Has nothing to do with being a "pussy arse fan." Not even about Ws and Ls, just BK being a punchable little bitch.

Could not agree more. He is constantly shifting between bullshite, cringe, and gaslighting. Every time the bozo opens his mouth he becomes more and more unlikable.
baw that is a long arse time from now. I wanna win now!

re: Frank Wilson and RB development

I really don't think RB talent and a lack of coaching is the problem here. I think it is all design.

re: Portal is a problem….

Posted by OzChuffnugg on 10/1/25 at 2:29 pm to
I don't think any issues can be attributed to the transfer portal. Outside of the Oline, I don't think talent is an issue at all with this team.

It was over.


I love how a main criticism of BK is his Sloan and House hires. A huge reason O got canned was because he brought Pelini back. But when great assistants are brought in the HC gets zero credit? Instead the ASSISTANTS were the ones running the show. Those assistants played a huge part of 2019, but saying O gets no credit for putting together a great coaching staff is a joke!
Miles by miles. Dude didn't know how to complete a forward pass but they were physical, won the trenches, and could run the ball. The defense was always elite. Plus he would piss you off but ease the tension with his goofiness, eating grass, and crazy shite he would say. BK is a douche, a gaslighter that is always yelling at others for his faults and he might be the most punchable person in the world.

He's quite possibly the biggest conman in college head coaching history.


Explain. When you are the leader of a major college program you are responsible for everyone in the building. He built 2019. That isn't a con, that is a true to form masterpiece of a season. Did he blow it, sure. But he built it and then got complacent. Right now there are a ton of dudes that came from his tenure tearing it up in the NFL after putting together a season that may never be replicated. Queen, Delpit, Stingley, Chase, JJets, Nabers, BTJ, Burrow, etc.. He built that shite. How is it a con?
