Call it what you want, but the team was much improved and call it incomplete. Other two jobs were dumpster fires. And I really have no opinion of the job done at Oregon. I just think the whole argument against him is kind of funny. I just find it funny that it’s unreasonable to find his career incomplete when he has left every program as soon as he has found marginal success and the start of this thread is about his comments on having a plan and implementing it once you have found that success. Cwt found marginal success at WKU running Stanford’s pro style, he came here and tried to implement it and failed miserably, he smartly pivoted and found some success with his new Gulf Coast offense, he then bolted before anyone really had to face it again, he then went to Oregon where he stayed for one year and made little difference before bolting and heading to FSU, where he will now be expected to find success immediately and then maintain it pretty much year in and year out. It’s a different animal and one he has never faced before, it’s not unreasonable that some maybe skeptical. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His first year there was quite a bit more impressive than his first year here. Granted, our situation was much, MUCH worse, but he certainly did more with what he had than his predecessor did.

No one is required to cheer for FSU just because CWT is there. I would say most people just didn't care about FSU, but you do have more than a few "jilted lovers" that are USF fans and actively rooting against CWT because he left us for greener pastures. Even if you reduce my often hyperbolic statements I still think those numbers are less than you expect and probably perfectly align with those rooting against UF where no former head coach is reigning.

Idk make some posts about the Gator’s coach taking pot shots at us and I can assure you I will respond with at least this much vitriol (at least I have some fond memories of CWT).

I'm guessing that Ga, like me, was basically referring to the reactions on this thread and it's littered with "jilted lovers" rather than ones just hatin on FSU because it's FSU ...

Didn't he essentially support your gripes about the current state of the program? Is this a "I can talk about my family, but you can't" situation?

Yes only I’m allowed to complain about USF, everyone else that tries to do it is an a -hole (except maybe CJL who I would more than likely give a pass to since he got jobbed). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe, I think It has more to do with his comments given his success and that he is the coach at FSU but I really am just guessing because typically coaches at FSU and UF haven’t had a lot of comments on us unless we were playing them.
