Re: TX St discussion
There’s a number of issues, but I think the majority of it is that the coaches don’t have the players prepared to play, or they don’t have them in the right formations/places. Some of that could be the players just not doing what they should be doing, but if that’s the case then it’s still on the coaches to coach them. We’re 6 games into the season. Communication breakdowns aren’t going to be a valid excuse anymore.
Maybe we have the wrong players for the scheme-and that’s potentially at least partially attributable to previous staffs. But the current staff should own that and do better with what they have.
Give 'em hell!

Re: TX St discussion
Responsibility for games like these always falls on the coaching staff but I agree with your sentiment.
People forget but this was supposed to be a down year talent wise. Yes we back filled with the portal, but that’s not always a guarantee. And you’re not adding kids we developed.
Doesn’t excuse getting plowed by Texas State, nor the penalties which are particularly bad, but the A&M win may have created expectations for this team that were not realistic.

Re: TX St discussion
Our lines are not dominating any longer. Needs to be addressed heavily this off-season.

I'm really hating that I believed this for 2 weeks

Re: TX St discussion
What do you do as a coach when your players keep doing stupid shit on the field? We have had a culture of undisciplined play for years. That is unacceptable. I don't know what the answer is but something ain't working.

Re: TX St discussion
Yep. Before that happened I was thinking we have plenty of time to score three times and go up by one. Then jones gambles, they pick up 30 yards and regain momentum to pick up a field goal.

I want to hear nothing about “the Bulls” until they can get a third down conversion.

Re: TX St discussion
At this point, a win would still feel like a loss. We have serious issues that need to be addressed.

Re: TX St discussion
Who has confidence D Jones' D can hold T state from scoring again the rest of the way?
