Very I appreciate this so much more

Munoz is a moron. Plain and simple. He couldn't coach himself out of a wet paper sack. If he's calling the plays (Hud boot licker as we know Hud is calling plays) he's proven he is an idiot. Again, I skimmed the article, but a quick glance is him blaming players. I'm not going to read anything that remotely throws our players under the bus. Why can't we get a coach that owns their misdeeds? I swear I'm starting to hope we lose out, just to see how stupid and idiotic our coaches will sound and to hear t-joke's and idiotFarmer 's responses to the RCAF losing approximately another $20,000 a year? I'm not that large a giver, about 1/25 of that, but I know 25 people who give what I do are stopping any further donations till IdiotFarmer and Hud are gone. Some are cancelling all tix except baseball and are giving minimum for the point system. I'm a nobody, so imagine those people who actually have cash?

Would you rather Jorge come out and say all positions are playing great and doing there job every play? Now that would be a blatant lie wouldn't it. I saw the article as a guy who is being honest not giving coach speak or sugar coating everything. There is an old saying in college football, for every freshman on the field you can chalk up a lost, and the Cajuns are playing with 5 just on offense at times.

To call the man an idiot or suggest he is a bad coach would just be false. I seem to remember him coordinating one of the most prolific offensives in school history. He was very good back then I don't think he just all of a sudden became a bad coach.

This is a board to post opinions as useless as some are.

Munoz was a pretty good coordinator when Fenroy, Desormeaux, and Cherry were helping to set offensive records. I remember one game in Monroe when they put up over 700 yards on a pretty good Warhawk defense. Our offensive talent today overall does not match that team. It is an issue of personnel in some cases. Munoz did not throw anyone specifically under the bus. He used the "young" excuse/reason a lot. Guys will be good down the road due to the rough patches they are undergoing today was part of the message. I agree that he was quite candid with his comments. More honesty than you get from most coaches was in that interview.

Oh I remember that ULM game. Fenroy got the ball and ran at will all night. He must have broke off 4, 5, or 6 20 yard plus runs. He finished the game a couple of yards shy of 300. He had 290+.

The main difference between the 2007 & 2016 is the QB. The overall talent is probably better on this squad.

I like Munoz. It will take more than half a season to judge his ability as on OC.

You guys got to get off this "throwing the players under the bus" schtick. He did no such thing. Regardless of what some think, the players have to actually go out and execute the particular game plan and we don't know even a portion of what is being coached during the week for their particular opponent. To say that certain units play inconsistently and its hard getting all of them playing well at the same time is not throwing them under the bus.

I didn't see this as Munoz throwing the players under the bus. He pretty clearly described, almost to the tee, exactly what most of us see week to week. He sees all of the player/unit inexperience and mistakes. That does describe 90% of what we see. He and Hud still believe that if they improve what the players do, what the coaches are dong is fine. Since many of us are not so certain that's the case, it sounds a little detached to listen to the player/unit evaluations and not hear any contrition or ownership by the staff for any of the "constant breakdowns". I can understand to a great extent why we aren't going to hear that... but I could easily read the exact same thing in this article from a coach that isn't getting his job done... and it wouldn't sound much different. What exactly leads to having so much inexperience and so many things " breaking down"? I was told over and over that our problems last year were inexperience and injury. Midseason... "Inexperience" begins to only apply to true freshmen... and even that begins to no longer be acceptable.
