Manny Navarro on Guidry

[G Reg3rdLeg]

Usually when this type of stuff is out in the media it means he’s already gone…

We are not taking the next step as a program with a d coordinator who is schematically as flawed as Guidry. Mario knows that and will make decisions accordingly. If he’s shown one thing in his mediocre tenure here it’s that he will move on from coaches in a respectful manner by allowing them to get a job. Guidry will be the same when that time comes. My guess is it’s this year unless the bye week was truly a wake up call

Guidry may or may not be gone but I can assure you it’s not because it’s somehow out and fat manny is in the know.

He’s not plugged in that way. Not with Mario

Agreed. This is definitely in the best interest of the program moving forward, but presumably Guidry is aware of his current status as well, and a checked out coach while trying to make a playoff run doesn’t seem great.

If Mario has this little faith in him (understandable) fire him now and let JT or whoever call the defense. It can’t get any worse and why let a lame duck ruin this season.

Any names of potential candidates? No teams seem to have a great DC and Manny at Duke isn't available. Especially no DC in the ACC aspires to greatness, how about Indiana Bryant Haines? or ND Al Golden....both have top 5 defenses.

For the x's and o's guys, did Guidry have scheme issues last year, or trouble having his personnel align properly?

Last year it seemed like he was the talk of the board because he was available to overcome the many injuries the defense suffered, and in doing so kept the team in many games despite TVD's inability to function as a QB

**** Navarro, his step dad Ferman, and his uncle Barry Jacksoff.

I was told on this board that Venables had taken a step back because of his wife's illness. Would the Hecht be open to swinging for the fences?

Again, that's the "name" DC that jumps out at me. Manny and Al might be too much for the fan base.

This piece tells me that Guidry's body of work this season is unacceptable and will keep UM from getting to a National Championship Game. AD and the Lawyers are probably starting the talent search as we speak.

I’d take a swing at him.

You are correct, but that’s CIS for you.

 

[hurricaneman]

The reason I would get rid of him is because he clearly doesn't know how to fix the situation and that's an indictment on his skill sets as a coordinator. GT just beat you with a one armed QB because their coaches understood how to play chess. Guidry clearly does not.

He doesn’t mean like that.

I’ll ask again since no one could answer before, but who are the coaches who “fix” talent issues in the middle of a season?

Are you ******* drunk? Ain't no way Al Folden is ever gonna coach anything at UM again.

 

[grover]

Need to evaluate the whole season. Guidry has two games left plus hopefully the ACCCG and hopefully playoffs, worst case a bowl. If he can get his team, as Mario puts it, assigned and aligned, then we win a lot more games and he’s back next season. If he can’t, I don’t need Fat Manny to tell me the likely outcome.

This isn’t shocking. Our defense is a disaster we spent way too much money on talent to play this bad. GT was a middle Tennessee indictment on how bad it got.

 

[BoxingRobes]

Hire Bob Salah.

Other teams in the ACC with less talent figure out how to stop teams like Duke, Cal, and Virginia Tech. The fact that we can’t is 100 percent a coaching issue.

 

[RozayCane]

I listen to Mannys pod.. you can tell he doesn’t really have the source or the connections he use too.. I doubt he knows

 

[Tinman64]

Dave Arnold was probably worst coach we ever had .. special teams way back when … Guidry is making a run for it .
