I wasn't simply blaming coaching..this is a group problem. I know that if I have a player that is consistently out of position on plays I would see that he is "coached" enough so that eventually he understands where he has to be. My point was that the coach is responsible for the physical and mental attitude of the players...and both need an understanding of how the game is played and what to do to prepare for it. It appears there is something lacking here and the proof is on the field. Hopefully someone will find a solution and correct the problem.

It's definitely not just the players or just the coaches, it's all involved. Good coaches can help bad players only so far, even if you simplify the defensive schemes. But to not see absolutely any improvement in 17 games really points more toward the coaches. Instead the team seems to be taking steps back. I'm not pinning the blame on one group, this is supposed to be a team effort. Canning the DC hasn't shown to be much of an improvement, we stil gave up over 500 yards to ECU. Offensive line is terrible, making the QB inept, play calling is terrible, absolutely nothing so far to show excitement or cheer about, and the prognosis is hopeless at this point. And I won't even get into discussing the shortcomings of the administration. I can only beat a dead horse for so long, then what's the point.
