Announcers skewering us for play calling on last offensive series of 1st half
- Thread starter 18IsTheMan
- Start date
There are calls that don't work.
Then there are bad calls.
But they don't even know what to make of the play calling on that series.
This offense looks about like what I would expect if I had to draw up some engineering plans for a skyscraper.
Strategy? Sounds like the joke is on the announcers. Has Shula on Beamers hip like a sad puppy dog this half
Meh! Shuler's still on the vanilla playbook. Wait till we play the taters. As long as we beat the taters.....jobs are safe!
We are, in just about every phase. Week after week, the announcers on TV are shocked at our play calls and decision making. It has to hurt recruiting.
I praised the announcers last night for calling it like they saw it. I think one of them actually used the phrase "poor coaching" to describe that series right before the half.
The other thing I noticed last night is they repeatedly displayed graphics showing us to be among the worst 5 or 10 teams in ALL OF FBS in every offensive category they displayed. Those collective stats - 8 games into the season - are prima facie evidence that Shula needed to go. We're not talking about worst-in-the-SEC statistics. We're not even talking about worst-in-P4 statistics. We're among the very worst of 136 teams in all of FBS! We're battling the likes of Charlotte, UTEP, Delaware, Middle Tennessee, Eastern Michigan, and Georgia State for the worst offense in America. Even if Beamer Fires Shula today, how can he justify letting it get to this point?

Iām holding out faint hope the āstrategyā was for some reason waiting until our bye week to tell Shula to kick rocks. Not holding my breath
Week by week the more it will reflect on Shane as a coach. Canāt justify whatās happening on that side of the ball
With all his years of experience (including growing up with Frank as his dad), you would think he had a higher HC acumen than what we're seeing.
Where would he have gotten that HC experience? We hired a horribly unqualified guy.
By being around them since day one. You would think some of it would have rubbed off. Plus, he now has SEC head coach experience and not getting better.
My dad was HVAC and I spent a lot of years helping him. By the time I went to college, I was an HVAC repairman but decided white collar CPA was better than hot attics and fiberglass.
My point is.....this is baffling.
He could have taken a job at a smaller school and worked his way up. We rolled the dice....so did the taters.
If Shane wants to keep his job, he's going to have to dig deep and find better coaches to help him out.
Shouldn't the blame for the fiasco at the end of the 1st half roll up on the OC?
They are actually in Conference USA now. But they are 4-4, so I'm not sure we want anything to do with them.
I bet they could run virtually at will on SC State.
Thanks for clarifying.They are actually in Conference USA now. But they are 4-4, so I'm not sure we want anything to do with them.
