If Manny let everything stay as is and made excuses for last year, I’d be right beside you talking smack. I’ve even been critical of him for his issues after the bye weeks in getting the team ready. However every major issue we had last year between player and coaching personnel he went out and addressed. QB? Went out and got the most dynamic transfer QB on the market. One that has shown success at this level before. OL? Grabbed one of the top rated grad transfers to address that issue and has attacked the position group on the recruiting trail. K? Got THE best K transfer available as well. We struggled on O due to an OC (who granted was picked by Manny) who had never been THE GUY for a team and it crashed and burned. Manny admitted as much by firing him and bringing in one of the most sought after young OC’s that has a proven record of success at the P5 level. Same thing with the Likens and Justice hires as well. The defense hasn’t been a legit issue since Manny has been here. Blake sucks to me buttery looked very good when Manny stepped in and had some more say on the defensive side of the ball.
Let’s give the guy who’s taking all of the necessary steps to do better a shot before just assuming it’s never going to change. Dabo looked like **** after year 1 also. Coach O did as well and check them out now.
Somethings just make too much sense.
