Sanders is the problem

Read the articles with quotes about the UAB defense. The reason we didn't go deep a lot is because they were playing 2-deep safety zone coverage the entire game. They were scared of our deep threats. If you know much about the technical side of the game of football you will know that it is near impossible to throw deep against 2-deep safety coverage. That's why we were wide open on all those intermediate and short passes. Now if you want to discuss our WR's dropping 5 wide open passes then that is another topic all together. Or maybe the fact that with UAB playing 2-deep safety coverage they never stacked the box and our powerful running game somehow didn't dominate? Those are the important questions. Sanders play-calling is not.

The lack of a consistent run game didn't help matters much.

I don't think I can add much that hasn't already been said, but I also support the fact that the mediocre performance was from lack of motivation and focus, not play calling. We had wide open receivers drop balls 20 yards down field, O-linemen missing blocks, QBs overthrowing receivers - that's execution not play calling. For the most part we could move the ball effectively until we through an INT or dropped a pass.

I don't know how old some of you are, but after living through Johnny-ball v Alabama for over a decade, I'll never complain about Sanders play calling yesterday.

UAB is a good football team and they could play with anybody. That game will wind up being a blessing in the long run I promise. So relax mojo, they won the game.

well, uab played a soft zone, which all but eliminated the deep ball. we could have thrown it but didnt. we took what they gave us. remember this was uab not florida, or georgia or alabama. our coaches had to see what we had. that is why we play mid majors for the first game. we will be fine. we have tons of talent and we will open it up. TRUST ME.

In my opinon. He is toooo conservative. Off takle right, off takle left,...screen right,...screen left. Hey Sanders, throw the ball down field and stretch the defense! I am so sick of his playcalling. There is NO excuse for HIS calling yesterday. We have 5 receivers who can are great, a RB who is great, and a OLINE supposed to be great,....and all he calls are conservative plays. Anyone with any knowledge knows to simply bring 8 men in the box,....which is what UAB did. I say FIRE Sanders and bring back Cutcliff!!!!!!!!!!!!! I do realize that UAB is a decent team,...but the PLAYCALLING stunk!!!!!!!

I'm no Sanders fan but how can you blame that game on him yesterday? We made too many mistakes for that game to be a blowout...We played just to beat them not to win! You can say give Sanders the hook and I would probably agree with you to an extent but you can't blame that game on him yesterday..Ainge threw 2 INTS and Clausen threw 1 that really shouldn't have been...We had 3 TO's maybe more? I didn't see the game but listened to it so I don't know the exact number

Also he got us down in the redzone plenty of times with his play calling. Lets see we had a missed fieldgoal by wilhoit, and then that 4th down play which wasnt sanders fault but the runningback dropped the ball. then the int thrown by Clausen in the redzone that was dropped by the reciver and into UAB's hands. Dropped passes for touchdowns by the recivers. Am I missing anything? That game isn't Sanders fault, and don't try to put the blame on one guy. Espically When the guy isn't even on the field.

The only problem I had with Sanders yesterday was his insistance on the continual running of the slip screen to the WR's. He over used that one.

OK...let's see if you really know what you're blathering on about. What exactly is the box? There IS an exact "box" in the game of football. What do you think it is? You say they had 8 in the box all day. Who were those 8 guys? Which positions? You wanted to stretch the field. What routes would you have thrown deep against cover 2? They were in cover 2 most of the day by the way...perticularly in the second half. What were the plays that we were running that you didn't like? "Off tackle" is not the name of a series of plays. Which series in particular was it that you were unhappy with? What series would you have gone to instead because you absolutely HAVE to run the ball or your deep routes into cover 2 definately won't work? Please..enlighten us all with you knowledge.

Signed Coach ?

Thank you. I just get tired of the Randy bashing by people who don't know what they are talking about. 10 years ago they said the same thing about David and before that they said...the same thing about Phillip. Just keep your mouth shut if you don't have a better idea. ( And it has to be a better idea than "we need to stretch the field when there are 8 in the box" because you heard some commentator use that phrase.)

I don't always agree with the play calling but Randy is still a good coach and OC. If the play calling was so horrible Fulmer could step in and change it if he saw that he needed to.

My one comment about the play calling is that we need to go deep just a little bit more often so the LBs and DBs don't feel so secure in remaining close to help with the run, which we emphasize.

I think the majority of the people who are criticizing Sanders, what the they are really critical of is the offensive set and scheme we use. I am not a big fan of the offset I formation either.

I mean the players come out and look like a high school team, and now here comes the fire Sanders rants, and next it'll be chop off CPF's head , Blah blah blah, after the job Sanders did last yr, one flat performance and it's time for him to go, that's just wonderful!  Did Sanders drop all those passes? did Sanders throw 3 piss poor passes that were intercepted? did Sanders block worse than my 52 yr old Momma? no, no, no

That would be rash decision. IMHO, we suffer (each year) from not being fully prepared for the first part of the season, and it takes around mid-season before our team starts playing; by that time we have incurred enough losses to put us out of national contention.

This past year, Ole Miss replaced Cutcliffe with a “Fire Breathing” coach: Ed Orgeron (a former Southern Cal assistant; with no head-coaching experience).  Coach “O” is the opposite of Coach “Cut” in coaching style. Cutcliffe has many of the same coaching qualities of Coach Fulmer: mild in temperament, places a high value on the mental aspects of the game (I think our play book weighs around 12 pounds), and expects each player to prepare themselves for each game. Coach “O” brings a Marine Corps’ approach to the game: he believes in motivation. This includes applying enough external pressure to ensure that each player plays up to their natural ability.

There is an old saying: “It’s better to have a lion leading sheep than to have a sheep leading lions”; we will have a great opportunity to see if this saying has any validity Monday night, when Old Miss takes the field against the University of Memphis. Ole Miss has lost the last two games against the U of  M. Old Miss has basically the same players that Coach Cut has (with the exception of Eli). In today’s modern age of computers and information overload, can this coaching style be effective?

Stay tune…

Amen T man. Name me another coach with his LACK of credentials that would be running an offense at a program like ours. He is the most UNDERQUALIFIED offensive coordinator in the top 25. No questions asked. He sucks.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :shakehead: :rock:
