Good post 337. I'm at a loss as well. I don't know why Hud plateaued so quickly, given that he gave the program momentum it was missing. How have we not advanced... but instead regressed under Hud? Did he get too comfortable with all of the adjulation? Is his football skill set more limited than we first believed?
I'm hoping Hud got lazy and complacent, and he will recommit himself. My fear is that he's not a jock with an advanced football mind and/or a wise manager of other men with advanced football minds. I fear he's a jock with a load of energy and desire. And his idea of recommitment is to pound harder on the staff marker board.
Hopefully... for at least this upcoming game... pounding on the staff marker board will "do it". I sure hope so. No "problems" will be solved... but I just don't want our new Hud "bottom" to include a loss to McNeese.
He had six players who either played in or playing in the NFL, he had Baer who bailed him out twice in the NOLA bowl and regular season, and he had better coaches his first year. I mean it's been going backwards ever since, a little at first to an all out collapse last year. This year may be worse. Honestly I cannot point to a single game that IS a guaranteed win in my W and L column.
Some here are still giving him too much credit for some great talent that he did not recruit. He did get three great guys in Ringo, Harris, and Hamilton. The Prophet is all that is left. He simply is not that good a coach we were victims of fools gold.
Can someone explain to me how McGuire was used with another running back in his first 2 years and the last 2 seasons we have become a one backfield offense? How hard is to key on 1 player for the opponents?
If Zo were still around, we still would. The single back backfield provides some other sets that can be hugely effective. Without criticizing down to our athletes... Hud, Munoz and Dez need to have a serious conversation with our receivers. The offense we run absolutely requires our receivers do some blocking. I'm not sure they were told that for Boise. But if we continue this offense, those WRs are going to have to learn how to block, and actually drive people out of their shoes.
