You read into his press conference what you wanted to hear. He didn't say he "botched" the QB situation. He said it prob wasn't fair to Haack but he doesn't have any intention of going back. He has the QB that he feels gives him the best chance to win. Just bc he shows some respect for Haacks feelings doesn't mean he admits getting it wrong.
Name a drive this year led by Haack that made the case for him being our guy?
That's what YOU got out of the comments. Media members present at the presser and players (and their parents for that matter) got out of it the opinion that I've expressed. I know that because they told me (yes THEY) personally.
As for your drive question. Remember that drive right before the half, where Nixon was subbed in on the goal line and Eli didn't get in? That's one of MANY
For everyone who's been dogging our coaching staff the last 6 weeks and thinks we have the talent to do way better. We are rebuilding, plain and simple.

You are right IMO. If the pass blocking were decent, the receivers were catching what was thrown to them, and the offensive play calling were just decent... Haack might be "the guy". But due to Hud's preference of plays - Nixon probably is the QB to continue with this year - and very likely not do well against the decent SBC teams.
And as for it being "a rebuilding year"... it is both a rebuilding year AND a crappy coaching year. It can be both. And it is. Saying it's a rebuilding year does not excuse all of the failures this year. It's a deliciously convenient excuse to use. But it is not the only issue by a long shot.
And before the same few boneheads chime in about "it's so negative around here"... Geaux Cajuns! Win every game! We love you! We're behind you 100%! Now, back to just discussing the coaching... if Hud sticks with his oversimplified offense... we know when things get complicated for him, he's going to want an athlete at the QB spot more than he'll risk a better passer with less foot speed... we are going with Nixon. It's just going to be that way. It doesn't mean it's correct. It's just correct for Hud. And he's running the gig.
Does Robinson dropping a TD count? Robinson fumbling at the 10 count? Does riles dropping a first down in his hands count? How about the first TD at Kentucky? When Haack ran it in? He did everything asked of him against NWST. So you tell me what did brooks Haack do so bad to get yanked so quick? 2 pick 6's? Or was that Nixon? 2-17? Or was that Nixon?
What Brook did is to have a set of QB skills that require more out of the personnel around him, and the coaching staff running the offense. I haven't truly gotten to evaluate Haack's full offering. Hud didn't prepare our program to make maximum use of a passer this year. It's easier to use an athlete at the QB spot and hope we can get the job done with more running. It can't and won't work against decent teams. But I also don't think a poorly prepared team can win with a Haack-skilled QB either. So at this point... it's probably best to just watch the games and not even question who plays QB.
