Coaching Error?

Postby Stallion » Sat Aug 30, 2008 11:44 am

I actually think that this loss had little to do with Coaching decisions(not including personnel decisions). However, 3 cramps to defensive players in 3 plays in the SECOND QUATER. I point directly to June Jones conditioning program of playing Flag Football all spring and summer for that. I also think it had a lot to do we the lack of defensive coordination too. Bonilla didn't play right? Just about the entire defense was playing either their first D1A game or they were playing a new position at which they didn't start the the 2007 Season. You can't fit that many new pieces in a puzzle with any degree of liklihood of success at this level playing Flag Football. This unit needed to play some full speed scrimmages to get used to the speed of the game and to coordinate the Unit. Its been 9 months since any of these kids played tackle football-it damn sure showed last nite. I think it will be an annual problem as it appears to have been at Hawaii. Better line up Savannah St. to open up the Season under Jones.

too early to be pointing the finger at jones no matter how justified it might be
