It has become a habit. This attitude and atmosphere resonates from the staff down to the players. Ironically, there is not a single individual in this group that wants to lose.
Yesterday we created other ways to do so.
Penalties on offense.
Kick off return for touchdown
Missed FG
Clock MGT x 2
Bad in game coaching decisions
Failure to anticipate opponents adjustments at halftime.
Lack of a take no prisoner attitude at the top of the food chain (coaches)
When the leader does not display faith or confidence in his ability of his players or himself then it resonates.
The fact there was no timeout to discuss the options regarding how to proceed speaks volumes.
These are a few examples of how the wheels fell off yesterday and in the past. We fine or create ways to lose.
I believe CDD was told several weeks or days ago he was gone.....at seasons end....yesterday decisions on the sideline suggest this. He paralyzed the players. No coach would have sat on the ball without calling a timeout and discussing it with all the key elements players first....he is coaching in a vacuum and chose to stay in it yesterday.
Many times we have heard that winning cures all woes.....it will I am sure but not under this regime of staff minus a few. CDD must be hardheaded and hard of hearing because he does not get it.
It has become apparent that we are close but not yet at ground zero......
There are no quick fixes so don't expect them. Letting CPF go was the right decision. The kiffin and Dooley hires were gambles. Patchwork not fixes because that was Hamilton's way "throwing crap against the wall and seeing if it sticks"
