No, Lebby’s number problem is he’s a slob and pays zero attention to important details and never works on the boring stuff successful people do

I think he can't because no good assistants trust the situation that he's created for himself. It's likely a 1-year gig. For some reason, everyone seems to miss that point.
Agree, but please don't discount his ineptitude at making basic head coaching decisions in game. After the play calling last night, I have to say that he isn't even a serviceable Dl OC.

No his number one problem is an impatient fanbase online. All because ole miss is excelling and having one of their next years ever makes the same posters more impatient. Y’all wanted up tempo air raid offense. Now in year two the same posters are wanting to jump ship and change directions again

Wanting competence on the football field is not "jumping ship".

Impatient? Hell, it’s doesn’t take two years to know if he’s the right guy or not

I don’t give two ***** about what OM does, will do or has done - hell I hope they win the whole damn thing - it’ll be all the more funny when Kiffin is tarmac’d in 3 years and OM won without him

he doesn't run the air raid, you dipsh|t. he runs the vear and shoot. lebby is an average OC, at best. not even upper tier. he has zero qualities that would make him a good head coach. you're confounding being an OC with a system to being a good head coach and CEO

Nobodies asking for a Natty. Just lining up correctly and not blocking our own man. Perhaps not playing matador OL for 2 years. I could go on.

Wait. Libby runs the Air Raid. Somewhere Mike Leach is rising from the dead to pullout his neck hair

One of their best years? They’ve won 10+ 4 out of the last 5 years. We just want a competent coach who can forget giving his buddies a job and go out and get more qualified guys.

Air raid, up tempo, veer and shoot, whatever you laymen football message board posters want to technically call it. They’re all just subjective names everyone likes to throw around. To me and football people, it’s all mostly the same concepts. You should be banned.

Moderators, does direct cursing at other posters or using curse words as insults not violate the board’s moderated standards against personal attacks?

Replace Lebby with Keenum and you start seeing the problem.

I agree. The best coaches all have one thing in common and its the ability to identify, hire, develop, and retain good assistant coaches.

Wanting to see week by week improvement from a team coached by a guy being paid $4,300,000.00 a year is not impatience. What we have in place is incompetence. One (1) quality win in 25 games is evidence enough - the guy is lost!!

Again, in year 2 over double win total, with 3 SEC loses coming by one score or less. Is that evidence of improvement? I’d say so

"Lebby's #1 problem is he can't hire a good staff"​

Selmon can't either judging by him bringing Lefty here.
Every time I type Lebby with swipe it comes out Lefty or Lenny, I've stopped correcting it now

He’s a good OC when he has a head coach that will veto certain things and calls he wants. Thats the only explanation I can come up with. Hes had good offenses while he’s had a head coach over him. He needs supervision. And if we waste our time and dollars hiring him hand holders like we tried with Hutz, then he’ll suffer the same fate that Hutz did.

Lebbys #1 problem is Lebby. He’s not HC material. Bad hire. Needs to go back to being OC or try to learn to be a HC at g5
That, unfortunately, is the issue. And he’s doing no growing up either. Just wasting time and dollars doing the same crap over and over hoping it’ll work next time, while screwing himself with his decisions.

That seems to be the case with two OC/handlers added to staff, basically you just need to hire a new HC who doesn’t need training wheels

I’m looking for the amen button…
I’ve watched football for 50 years and played for 12.
I know when a coach has a vision and I know when a coach lacks confidence in his abilities.
We have been highjacked by a president with a bad vision to allow a first time AD who hired his first time HC friend.
Every decision made is based on convenience not diligence.
We need to pay a proven coach 8m and start over sooner than later.
