'A pretty good direction'

[jllanclos]

We didn't run the read option on Saturday and we scored 16 points on offense. So there's that.

Good point.

The tweets from Buckley from Hud's presser are just mind numbing. What the ____ happened to him? How did he get to this point of stubbornness? Why can't he see what everyone sees? What in the hell is going on?

---Oh ok BB--the coaches are playing somebody that is inferior

-WHY---to get fired, to get the fans ____ed, to get the team ____ed, to show how wrong they can be??? you should know from your experience that it doesn't happen that way!!! This thing would have been hashed out long ago if there wasn't a good reason for his staying at that position!!! Damn the guy accounted for 450 yards in one game BB---Your days are over as mine are--how many knew more than you when you coached and you just laughed because they had no idea---you taint in the meetings---they are and I let them live or die by the Ws and Ls

I have been very pleased with this staff and the entire offensive members that have been here since the get go!!!

Hey Boomer....you have no idea what I know....don't even try to preach to me....he will probably remain at QB the rest of the season...and will probably be productive at times.....he needs a special package out of the wildcat formation if they leave him as a QB

Are you aware that 4 of Brooks INTs were against Kentucky (2), Akron (1) and Tech (1)? Arguable the 3 toughest defenses we've faced. Boomer is a stat hound that doesn't follow the details. We are no longer facing teams that we are down like a dog and have to throw on every down to conserve clock to make a miracle comeback. Do you understand that? That isn't captured in a stat. Stats are for ignorant ____s that don't understand what they're actually watching.

Boomer's comment "let the coaches coach" is silly. How do we interupt the coach's coaching by stating on a fan forum how boneheaded a coaching decision is? Putting Nixon in and having a failure was not what made the decision dumb. It would have been dumb even if Nixon would have succeeded. You DO NOT pull a QB that is having success. And Haack was succeeding. AGAIN... even the stalled drives had NOTHING whatsoever to do with Brooks.

And no... no coach sticks with a plan that has a flaw staring him directly in his face. No smart coach pulls a QB that is succeeding, that doesn't need "a rest"... just to give another QB some playing time. There's more to a decision tree with QBs than just saying you're going to play both. And one of those branches is "are we succeeding and should I make a change?". The decision was STUPID for way more reasons than the Nixon INT. We saw Nixon throw terrible passes in his last outing. And the pass he threw right before he threw the pick was at the feet of the intended receiver. That was a MAJOR coaching mistake. It should have cost Hud a win.

Hud needs to send Lutz a thank you note.

It's really 3 interceptions, the 2nd one at Kentucky was on a Hail Mary at the end of the game.

Haack does miss some open WRs, IMO that has a lot to do with not getting enough time to grow as a QB under live game action. Haack has way higher upside that Arbuckle and it's not even close. The difference is Arbuckle has a never ending leash and is allowed to play in a system that is failrly wide open.

I am almost 100% certain that Haack physically is the best pure passer in the Sun Belt. This system and our horrendous RG & RT is really hurting us at the moment. If we called plays like we did against Kentucky all year with Haack at the helm with 100% backing we would be 5-3 right now and possibly 6-2.

There's no doubt Haack hesitates to pull the trigger at times. I completely agree that he's been poorly managed by this coaching staff. I think they've equally lowered both Haack and Nixon from a confidence and competence perspective by this ridiculous flip flopping. As for your opinion of Haack... I'm not sure about all of that. I just know he's the best passing QB (with experience) that we have on this team right now. He needs to be allowed to operate with the right people, in the right positions, running smart plays... all built around his assets right now.

It's becoming more and more clear that Hud has no idea what the _____ he is talking about. Leave the X's and O's to our coordinators. Just be a face, give some speeches, raise money, and get out of the way!

Maybe your right about Haack having more upside than Arbuckle, but never in this lifetime will his arm be as strong as Arbuckles.

You are kidding right? Arbuckle put everything into a throw and it went 46 yards in the air. Against Kentucky Haack threw one on the money 63 yards in the air. Haack can make every NFL throw right now. Not another QB in the Sun Belt can say that.

You watch the last throw of the game?

Let's at least tap the breaks on the "every NFL throw right now".
