You are coach for a day

My thinking is Scott said that believing he could actually come in and be at about a 4 or 5 win team. I think he felt he was a season or 2 away. Looks like we are 4 or 5 years away with the personnel we have size and experience wise. 
 

We need size at certain positions immediately. Only way is through transfers. 

Agreed. Strong up front is our only path back.

I’m not saying another qb/coach and a air raid attack couldnt take this team and produce more excitement and have us scoring 40 a game and losing. Hell I’d like to see that over this. 

But we don’t have the talent and its obvious. It’s not enough to say we live in florida...We don’t need the best players on the planet but we do need talent and we do not have it right now minus the rb’s. i’m reserving to judge the coaches just yet but it’s getting close to calling out the play calling and scheme because it’s miserable.

our goals should be very simple even though it wont be simple but recruit offensive linemen and defensive linemen until we have the skill and size up front to win with ****** players! We can get enough scraps and succeed at the skill positions offensively. Bottom line were getting manhandled and what skill or speed we do have is irrelevent. 
 

 

 

 

 

This reminds me of the HBO show Silicone Valley when they get a new CEO and have to change the entire company in order to get the best sales people. The founder asks if they are the best why can’t they sell what they have and the new CEO explains that no the best sales people only want to sell the best and easiest things. Literally anyone can be the best coach if they have the best talent evert time but no one is going to convince me that our talent is 5x worse than every other team in this ****** conference and only better than the loan FBS team on our schedule. Our coaching staff is a failure by any and every measure and they alone can improve the problems they were hired to fix and have only made worse by every measurable.

Thats been usf football for as long as i have known them minus flowers era. When we could actually pass it all over the field and score in a matter of seconds...how far away that feels now.

I mean in all fairness it’s so simple a ccs can do it so it would make sense a good coach could but alas...

1. We are back at practice on Monday. What's your priority?

2. When the season is over, do you pack with the portal for 2021, or play the long game and recruit freshmen?

3. Who do you start at Memphis and what's your game plan?

(OK so I guess coach for multiple days)

you recuit both portal and freshman and jc players

If we recruited our butt off for a single year we would have more talent than 75% of the conference our problems are deeper than the players on the roster and anyone that thinks they need an entire roster of the best players in the conference to just be competitive just isn’t going to ever get it done.

this is true and this is reason for optimism

we can turn this around in 2 years

Agreed. We’ve done and seen it before so there’s no reason to think it can’t be done again.

The saddest part is that Strong would have probably won 3-4 games with this group and Scott will win one game.  The talent is not great on the team but the coaching staff looks like they are lost in the woods.  I'm sure Scott likes all the money and his giant mansion but I'm sure he didn't think things would be this bad on the field.

His dad was a bust as a HC and it appears like father like son.
