Quote:So you think the very nature of the position makes the coach the recipient of the criticism of the organization as a whole, irrespective of his approach?

 

In most ways the buck does stop with the Head coach but in this case it seems like the organization has no problem with making sure the focus is even more heavy on his door steps.  Gus is a paid cheerleader in so many ways.  He is suppose to rah rah for the players and the fans.  Buddy Coach and your friend needs you to want to save his job and rally around him.  Can these players do that?  That remains to be seen.  This staff was gifted a patty cake schedule and every team had handicaps heading to matches with us.  And yet we have 5 wins.

 

So you can go with we don't have enough talent.  And if that is the case then the three year plan was dishonest and a half truth and the head coach had to sell it this year.

 

We can go with the coach is in over his head.  And if that is the case then next year we need a roster that is coaching proof.

 

Fans are fans and not always reasonable.  For me this is the first year of watchable football in about 9 years of agony.  Can this staff move us forward?  We will see.  I think there are some really talented coaches on this staff being lead by a head that is in over his head.
