Actually I’ve said several times I️ don’t care which side of the ball he comes from and that’s is small minded to require one and eliminate a list of candidates from the other. No matter what side they come from they will lean on someone else for the other side. Find a good football coach who knows how to win...I️ don’t care if he wins every game 66-65 or 3-0...win. What did our offensive minded coach do with that nationally ranked defense? I’ll wait

Nothing. That's the point. As good of a defense as we had we had no offense to score points. In college football, you have to score points to win and typically have to score in the mid 30's and higher to consistently win. I don't care how good of a defense you have. Look at our conference. You have to outscore many of the teams to win a championship. Troy, ASU, App State even ULM have good offenses that our mid level teams will not be able to stop. You can hope to minimize their field position and turn them over but they will score.

I’m not going to debate you about offense and defense. But that defense we had last year wasn’t very good regardless of stats. USM quickly exposed it in the NOLA Bowl. Boise exposed it. We actually played some rather bad offenses. It’s best game of the year was against stAte. And that game was literally won on a review call we won by inches.

And that’s my point...an offensive minded coach doesn’t guarantee points. A good coach finds a way to win, week to week...however they have to. They score points However they have to. It’s more about a head coach knowing how to delegate priorities to people’s strengthd and weaknessesl, as well as his own strengths and weaknesses. We have an extreme micromanager right now so I️ get people’s hesitation. Having a defensive mindee head cixh does not mean you can’t have a dynamic offense. That’s what the interview process is for and background checks with former coworkers. That’s the due diligence the AD should do.

Bad call on the fair catch signal. Shame they took that fellas 5th TD

That was the correct call.

You can't be a great defensive coordinator without knowing how the offense you are facing works....you can't be a great Offensive coordinator without knowing how the defense you are facing works.....and great Offensive and defensive coordinators know what the weak spot is of the offense and defense that they are running.....I am pleased with how Dr. Maggard did with the hiring of the new Softball Coach. He has an enormous amount of connections and there will be high interest in this job. For many reasons this is the single most critical hire in our football programs history. He knows this. By the way Hark.....I'm not directing this specifically at you or your post. I just tagged it to your post because you made some good points.
