So Skippy thinks "shaking up the depth chart" is going to solve his problem. Really? Are you telling me he is acknowledging he has been playing the wrong players? Or, is he trying to blame it on the seniors, most of whom were recruited by JL? Come on Skippy, you can do better than that! Start looking in the mirror! These seniors gave their all to this program and now, because you cannot coach, you want to use them as the scapegoats for your miserable campaign! That's it, just throw them under the bus, with the blame! How would you like to have been a senior, in this program, on this team? While I am at it, how would you like to be a tight end, recruited to this program that doesn't throw the ball to tight ends? Yeah, that helps the recruiting! So long Skippy!

The coaching staff has already been creative in their use of personnel. Haven't they? 2nd and goal in the most important drive of the year vs Rutgers and they give the ball to Bradley Battles for hi

Have no problem with it. It shows that he acknowledges that something is up. It is good that the players know their positions arent safe and if you dont put heart and blood into every snap you can sit

Hopefully this includes the coaches. We need some depth at DC & HC.

Where in his comments has he called out the seniors? All of our starters aren't seniors, ya know. You're just putting words in his mouth to try and find another reason to dislike him.

Most times when coaches "shake up the depth chart" its to replace a senior with an underclassman. Basicly they are telling you that the have given up on the season, and are looking to get underclassman into the games, in anticipation of next year. Skippy has told you that he is giving up on the season. Actions speak louder than words!

To answer USFbulls0208 question, He didn't, you are making wild assumptions.

It's fine to shake it up to try and get the best from your players but the play calling and game management is in greater need of a change than the personnel. If there are no changes made in play calling or game management then the ship has sunk.

It is good that the players know their positions arent safe and if you dont put heart and blood into every snap you can sit your ass down on the bench. idgaf if we lose, I just want to see the guys who want to play for us, play for us. Didnt like what I saw against Temple.

This! If we lose from fluke plays or just being over-powered, I can swallow that. The head-shaking begins when it seems like a simple lack of being "all in".

Leach is doing this, and has used stronger language.

All Skip is saying, literally, is that he is rewarding effort and productivity, and not just number of years played. I'm in, Coach.

So the first half of the season was a train wreck but let's just keep everything the same so it doesn't look like we've given up on the season is the way you'd go ... brilliant ******* move.
