I agree that CJS caused some of this but think about all of our last coaches, they all had different backgrounds. This current one has an almost identical football background to our CJS who failed so much we fired him with multiple years on his contract. We can say there are intangible things that are different but football wise, it's currently the same.
Then there are these pieces:
1. VPMK says we are looking for a coach with HC experience and Florida recruiting ties. Then he hires someone's with no HC experience and limited Florida recruiting.
2. Goach then says he is getting the best DC in the country and hires a middle of the road DC on a team that just got their HC fired.
3. Much of the new staff are also very new to their jobs/GAs.
I'm sure everyone will work out fine and we will win a ton of games but if we had hired like VPMK said, hired a stronger DC, and filled the staff with more experienced people, I bet the skepticism would be lessened.
