Correct me if I am wrong but I thought the only reason Ray came here is because those other big programs wanted to make him play another position. He only came here to be a qb and he is not our best qb

He came to have a shot at QB.....it's time to fish or cut bait. He'll never be a QB on the next level. He will have a shot as a RB....this is what Coaches do. Sit the kid down and hash it out. If he wants to leave, fine.

Hud is a coach that can take good athletes from someone else's recruiting and hype them up. But once his recruiting mistakes and bad technical coaching decisions put his team in a lurch... he can't get them out of the slump. He just doesn't have the mind to do it. But there is the hammer.
In fact, his mind has taken us in the opposite direction of fixing the damage. All Hud understands is pounding the hammer. He has no wrench, no screw driver, no wire cutters, no drill, no saw. He has a hammer. He's experimented with the other tools... but when he keeps using the drill in reverse... and the screw won't go in... He grabs the hammer. And even after he's bent the nail sideways... does he use the claw and pull the nail out? No. He hits the nail harder with the hammer. The hammer is simple. He understands the hammer. If challenged... he'll swing the hammer harder. It doesn't matter if the nail is bent. Swing the hammer harder. That thing called a drill. He once used it for a day without plugging it in. Didn't work. Go back to the hammer. Ahhhh... the hammer. Swing harder. Bang the hammer. He built a dog house once before with only a hammer. He can do it again. Ahhh... the hammer. Bang the hammer. Harder.
