[QUOTE="Butler-eer, post: 132095920, member: 1661089"] No, Just telling it like it is. Peter Principle at it's best. Bill Stewart was a great QB coach. Anybody that knew anything about FB could tell that he wasn't HC material. Nothing against him as a person or a position coach. As head coach material ...... he was not. If the first 2 L's (games 2 & 3) of his first year didn't tell you he was over his head then the last MooU game should have. Some of his thinking about program building was way off base. "Saving schollies" for deserving walk ons is beyond belief. Take a look at how many years we were struggling to get to the 85 number after Holgs came on board. And now how many years it's taken Brown to get to that number when using every schollie available. If you have room for 25 and can sign 25 then sign 25 LOI's. THEN give out schollies to deserving w/o's after some attrition takes you below the 85 mark. "Saving" schollies is wasting schollies. Bla, Bla, Bla. 9W's, 9W's, 9W's. It was the BE..... Not SEC, Not B1G, Not B12, Not ACC. The BE at that time was far inferior to any of those conferences after Miami, BC and VT bolted. Good position coach, Yes. Good recruiter, Yes. HC, not so much.
