A real coach makes the best out of what he has! He has all the talent in the world in a team. Use them for what they were recruited for. Stop trying to adjust your players and adjust your mindset as a coach, adjust your offense, and that is the answer. #bs #theanswer #isinfront #ofyoureyes My questions now is...Did Hopkins retweet that because he understands that Coach T is trying to change the program here, or did he retweet that because he's pissed at Coach T for saying that?

Even if that is true and I believe it to be the case, you can't put that out in the media. It sounds bad. I think he's showing his inexperience as a HC.

"And those kids will be better as we continue to move forward. But it's not hard to recruit those guys" I don't know that he isn't correct but seems like something that doesn't need to be said. They are already hearing it from enough fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That quote is taken out of context, and reading the rest of what he said, I really don't have an issue with it. He said they will get better, they will recruit the right guys, and that we are limited at receiver. Is any of that wrong? Let's stop criticizing everything Taggart does, this season is bad enough already. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone's getting a beating on this, but CWT should never have let that get out in public. I know he's probably tired of taking the incoming rounds, but that's what he's getting paid for. They may not be elite, but we've never had an elite class. Don't know what he's expecting, but this all just looks like growing pains to me.

Especially Players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
