Then dont half ass on the field. Then dont have a loser reaction to things. Then get fired up and make your teammates better.

We just need the dude to help win us 6 regular season games. That’s all I’m asking from him. Just 6.

Big Newt is right. I thought JG's problem was the OL and the play caller. But he looked exactly the same Saturday. The guy is not a winner. I'm sorry, but if we win 6, it's not going to be because he got us there. He might be the best we have, but I don't know how that's possible honestly. Whatever "it" is, he doesn't have it.

I'm not an English nerd, but this is how I have always figured out which of (They're, Their and There) are correct.

They're: use this if "They are" can be substituted.
Their: pertains to someone or something
There: location

If you are hungover and around Chattanooga i do NOT suggest Ruby Falls. I almost had a panic attack.

Oh wow ok thanks

I hope. I just don't understand why he's a completely different person than last year. Last year he was ticked that we got whipped by Bama and this year he's treating a loss to GSU like it's no big deal. I'm so confused

Zoloft

I've been thinking about this too. My opinion is that he's now the CEO of the team and is letting his coaches do all the chewing. Last year, he was coaching a lot. Only thing I can come up with right now.

Agreed

at the end of the day, he is who he is, and there's probably not much that can/should be done about that. so i'd imagine the guy that is in front of the players day in and day out is the same guy....maybe a little more meausred now than in the past, but at his core, he is who he is.

if i had to guess, i'd probably wager more that he was "kick the whiteboard" guy more in the staff meetings than he might be with the players.

It’s doesn’t matter how he acts for us. If he loses and shows emotions he’s an out of control idiot like willM. If he doesn’t we have a reaction like this post.

Losing is the only thing that matters

Must have been in the nose bleed section watching the boat fire instead of the game.

 

[rjd970]

I just can't buy into the talk and hype. Seen it before.

Show us. Show us. Show us.

Even if we lay 50 points on these fools...its one game. The only thing getting the taste of Saturday out of my mouth is a win over Florida and sweeping MIZ, Vandy, and KY like we should.

As “mediocre” as JG is and was against GSU, it was the defensive play that totally baffled me considering the level of competition we faced.

Also fired up about what he called a poor coaching job. (Alluded to it being unprecedented from what he has witnessed).

i think you meant to post this to respond to Bass's post actually.

I have no sympathy for him.kid doesn’t even read a defense before he snaps the ball.if he did his protection changes would be there or changing the play in general would probably help a lot.this Oline maybe bad but if a blitz is coming,the Oline can only hold for so long.other teams literally load the box because they know he won’t throw past the 10 yard marker.we have no balance in our play calling because he won’t throw down field nor does he really scramble out of a collapsing pocket to extend the play.

Got to thinking...can we come back from 15 yr slide? Are there any major programs that suffered similar droughts. Heres what I have:
Tx A&M (2002 - 2010): Posted two 4-8 seasons and one 5-6 campaign. Missed bowl games in 4 seasons.

USC (1996 - 2000): only one bowl appearance. One 5-7 season. Three 6 win seasons.

LSU (1989 - 1995): One 2-9 season, Two 4-7 years. Three 5-6 seasons. One bowl apperance.

Clemson (1993 - 1998): one 3-8 year. One 5-6 year. Two 7-5 seasons.

Or we may just end up turning into Minnesota or Colorado.

Washington became good again when they hired a legit, proven head coach. Weird how that happened

Blaming any fan still around at this point is pointing fingers in the wrong direction.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

The only way that Maurer or Shrout could be worse is if they were throwing tons of interceptions. If they'll take care of the ball, play one of them. JG is useless

There

They are not the same

There really bad with they're grammar. Their needs to be improvement.
