Six games in they have gained experience and will continue to do so.
When I said "what's to say there isn't still a solution for the O-Line?" I meant technique. All the experience in the world working on something you are not capable of will produce nothing.
What's to say there isn't still an untried solution for the O-Line?
I go with facts, and leave opinions, observations and conjecture to you.
Facts:
Rob Sale and Billy Napier are good friends, working together at Alabama. I never called Rob Sale a bum, considering his resume as an OL Coach at Alabama, Georgia and UL.
When Rob Sale left for a coaching opportunity in the NFL with the NY Giants, Billy Napier hired Coach Norrid to coach the OL because he had a relationship with him and was familiar with the system in place. So, Billy Napier hired the guy you say isn't any good.
Billy reached out to Rob Sale, his good friend when he accepted the Florida job. This was a no brainer considering their long friendship and Sales resume as an OL coach. Sale also knew the Giant coaching staff would be let go after last season. It worked out for both men.
Sales reached out to his former recruits O'Cyrus and Waites to come to Florida. One was a certain starter for the Cajuns this season and the other would have played. With the graduation of Vallot and Marks, with the addition of Mitchell leaving for the NFL this staff was left with an inexperienced group outside of 1 returning starter in Gillie. Both Hudson and Thomas were reserves. Add the injuries and Brown leaving as well for an NIL deal with Deon Sanders at Jackson St. and we have the group that's available.
Those are the facts, but you are certainly welcomed to your opinion. I'm not interested in debating every opinion I disagree with daily.
It's only silly to you because the message flew right over your head. I don't blame Mike for letting his guys compete for the job for a couple of weeks even if he "named" Chandler the starter. But you keep trying to fit that square peg of a two QB system into a round hole called your team & you're gonna find the unemployment line by virtue of a few 3-4 win seasons. My point wasn't going to be about what caught Bum in his old age & the mine field of letting your individual loyalty cost you your whole team. It was about an offensive blocking scheme that sucks donkey balls & the need to section 8 that scheme ASAP & go with a scheme your players have the ability to execute. Of course you won't understand this post either.
If I believed like I'm being told to believe by my fellow posters on this board right now, my mindset would be these guys suck, we need to go get a whole new set of guys that don't suck & start them off on the toughest unit of the team to get continuity, by teaching them an unnecessarily difficult blocking scheme which takes years to get really good at IF you are an All American who has pro potential. But if you're just a good college player that can push people around & maul people you have no chance of being good. I can see what kind of future you guys are looking for. And quite frankly if I thought that was going to be the philosophy of this team long term I would be off this bandwagon so fast I'd set your asses on fire on my way out the door. Because personally I'm too damn old to watch a bunch of so called young coaching geniuses wet their freaking pants half a dozen years in a row before they finally wake up & learn the error of their ways & decide the cook is the problem, not the ingredients.
