In the FSU game, Lattimore made a stupid personal foul penalty on a third down play came up short and would have resulted in a punt. When the camera showed him next to Holtz on the sideline, Holtz was listening to him justify his penalty.

Against Temple, Marcus Shaw had a personal foul call that cost our defense major field position on a punt. When he came to the sidelines he was smiling and the players were high-fiving him. Then they showed him talking next to a calm and consoling Holtz.

I've never seen Holtz hold a player accountable. He always just listens and gives pats on the back. I've never seen him get on Daniels after he makes dumb interceptions. Holtz always thinks his team is giving a great effort, but he doesn't demand anything from them. He doesn't push them to be any better than they already are. We have a talented and experienced team, but the player's are only living up to their personal standards, when they need a coach to show them how to raise the bar.

That's my two cents.

May have mentioned this before. One of my buddies has a personal/business relationship with Skip and has been out to a few practices. He told me that Skip runs a pretty loose ship. Seems to be more interested in "being friendly" with the players and not pushing or disciplining them so much. Told me there doesn't seem to be too much consequence if they screw up or late for meetings, etc.

My buddy was out at some Leavitt's practices as well. Told me it's like night and day between the two different atmospheres.

This seems pretty consistent with what we see on the field.

Holtz... proud no matter the outcome.

Holtz says he's proud of our team.

I'm not even proud of this team, how could the head coach be proud?

I'm embarrassed to wear my USF gear, but Holtz.... well Holtz is proud no matter the outcome. He has no shame.

He's just proud of the 2 million a year he is stealing from us

You're right. This thread should be titled "Holtz' lack of reaction to penalties"

In today's game there was one personal foul penalty deep in Temple territory because our guy slapped or swiped at a player on the ground. So he comes off the field and two of his buddies congratulate him and celebrate like roosters phuking their first hens. No discipline on this team. In fact, they celebrate the lack of it. What a waste.

    "There is no inherent fear among this group of players. The fear of failing drove the program from day one - the fear of failing the coaches, the fan base, the university, each teammate, themselves. Now, as we head into the biggest game in our history at home on a national stage against the highest ranked team to step on OUR field, the players are taking an introspective look at themselves. Unfortunately, I don't know if they get it. They lack the fear."
