Coach D; One Players Perspective

[Cal jimmy]

My kid is at the U. He is a sports fan, journalism type focus and knows a few kids on the team,

He knows a starter on D. He called today and told me this player was very supportive of coach D and reported that was the attitude of the team. Player's opinion, my kid reports, was that plays were well conceived and called but not executed. Full confidence in Coach.

I know this is sketchy without names. I know the "F@ck Manny, Fire Dorito" crowd will hate to hear this.

I also know that's what the kid heard and he is a lot closer to the program than most posters.

If you call something your players can't execute, how is it well concieved?


To me, results matter, not intentions. You could intend to schematically outcoach your opponent, but, if the players you help recruit to play in your system fail, you fail.

I believe OP.

I still think Doritos is a ******* idiot.

I believe OP.

I still think Doritos is a ****ing idiot.

Yep

I'm not sure why this should surprise anyone. The worst coach in history had players on his roster who thought he was a decent coach lest they admit to themselves that the guy the signed up to play for was actually totally incompetent. It's a coping mechanism. Just like the child who gets physically abused but still thinks his parents love him because the alternative, in his mind, is worse.

Coker's and Shannon's players also supported them while they were on the team. Results are what counts.

No one is debating whether this means that Coach D is calling good plays, this just means that he's not hated by his players as many claim

So not only do our players suck, but they are stupid too?...................................................Just kidding, Just kidding.

There maybe like a handful of players that dislike Coach D... Maybe less than that... Most players don't see anything wrong with their coaches... However, they're players and not coaches... That being, Coach Golden and Coach D needs to step up this year...

 

[jump1cane]

If you can't get players to execute then youre not doing your job as a coach. This isn't play station, where you just pick a play.

 

[jump1cane]

I see the point.

What has killed coach d imo is the failure to recruit n elite DT, until then we wont kno how good his D can be.

Virginia Tech doesn't need elite DTs to field top defenses. Only Miami.

 

[TexasCane90]

I'm sure OP is telling the truth as nothing but support has come from players etc...

But the product on the field just isn't getting the job done

You're Pete's dad?

 

[WhatTheHell]

How cute.

I don't give a **** if every day after practice they hold a party for Donofrio and hoist him up on a chair while showering him with champagne and cheers. Until they crack the top 25 defenses in the country, they can take their giant, *** reach-around fest and -- literally this time -- go **** themselves.

 

[LA'Cane818]

You know the ***** thought Hitler's ideas were well thought out and conceived.
