Here is what Rich Brooks had to say about the Florida game:

On one of his players, DE Jeremy Jarmon, placing the blame on the players: "That's my job to get them to do that. It was an almost total systems failure, when you have total breakdowns in blocking assignments and execution and getting lined up right, communication. <span style="font-weight: bold;">Those are things I'm responsible for</span>.
It's refreshing to see a coach take the blame for once.

Responsibility..... I wonder why a certain man of character has not taken the time to ponder his responsibility as the head coach? It is on the players every time. Hell, he doesn't even have the responsibility anymore to build a program since 4 years from now do not matter one bit to him.

but he's better than Crooms for sure. He wins most of the games he should & occasionally pulls the upset. At least he's beat LUS once & UPig once (something we haven't done for a long, long time). As much as I hate it, I think we have a pretty good shot to beat them Sat.

Edited to say, I certainly agree with the premise of the original post (used to get pissed at the Kang when we laid a turd & he would make excuses, too).

the program he inherited had been hit harder by the NCAA than ours.

but he does have an outstanding 2-2 record against Crooms right now (no doubt we probably played our best game of the year against UK last year). The only real diff I see is that he wins most of the games he should (see Maine, LaTech, Tulane, etc., for Crooms).

Croom quit talking about winning championships, so that's a step in the right direction for him.

if we'd just beat the teams we should, we'd be in a hell of a lot better situation. If we'd just beaten LaTech, we'd be 4-4.

It's quite refreshing! I use Obama instead of Crooms but hey what the heck I will sub Crooms in there as well.
