The TBP Official In Game Thread: Bulls at SMU

Any chance we can bring back CJL to at least run and develop this defense?

[El_Toro_86]

At some point the sloganeering and platitudes don’t cut it.  You have to start winning.  It’s been nearly a year and a half and he’s O for FBS.

We need more from our defense and I am not sure if Spencer can scheme anything with what we have on defense. I'm not sure Spencer can put a defense together period. I simply do not know enough about his past track record.  I think Scott needs to look at making that change at end of the season.

Not one thing has improved under CJS in nearly 2 years, not one. That’s it, that’s the post.

Idk man we really shouldnt be THIS bad so deep into the CJS era. Look at what Pittman has done in Arkansas (a dumpsterfire of team for three years before) in his first year. Coaching can really make a huge difference and it shouldn’t take this long. 
CJS should at least have ONE FBS victory under his belt by now.

Thank you! People keep giving this guy benefit of the doubt. No! Willie got an FBS win in his first season after Holtz’s mess. Why is everyone content? I agree, it’s good to see guys making plays, but at the end of the day we haven’t won a game against an FBS opponent since October 26, 2019. That was almost 2 years ago!

Well he had a pretty good defense at FAU while he was there his final year. 

But this defense is horrible they can't even do basic tackling and we are into game 5.

Everyone needs to relax. Firing CJS is absurd. Coaching can't overcome the lack of talent that is on our defensive side of the ball. We need more talent plain and simple.  There were plays to be made and whether you choose to believe it or not there was a point going into the 4th qtr that we were in striking distance. Timmy made some freshman mistakes, but come on if you can't see the strides this team has made, then your simply looking for us to fail. There is no coach out there that we can get, that could snap their fingers and make us bowl eligible team. No one expected us to go into SMU and win today. 

Thank you…

We are much improved as a fan base in picking things a part

On the bright side UCF lost to navy .
