Chad's offense has looked pretty bad at times this year as well

The same people who moan about June and scream about talent being the sole determining factors of our ineptitude are the ones who questioned the age and experience of the coaching staff before the season.

As a fanbase we have GOT to stop being so myopic. There are MUCH broader problems with our football team and our athletics generally.
Specifically what can the administration do differently?
Pay attention would be a start. There needs to be leadership. It is not enough to bring in deep pockets to pay the bills, there needs to be a sense of accountability. I see no evidence that CM is going to be treated any differently than JJ was. If he does the job that's great, but we all believe that he will not be here for the long haul, so if our AD doesn't learn from its mistakes then we are doomed to repeat.

You really didn't say anything comprehensible-sound like a Soccer fan trying to make sense of something you don't understand

And the same people that defended June for so long were the same that had no problem with the age and lack of effort from his assistants.
Get off your [deleted] high horse. This is going to take more than a year. If you can't handle that, bye.

How the administration "treats" the HC affects how the players play on the field? How the administration "treats" the HC affects the recruiting? I need help in understanding what the hell you're talking about.

Sadly, seems this crowd has higher expectations for the level of craft beer at games than the level of coaching.

Pay attention to what? What request have they not payed attention to? Be specific and not all this generalizing garbage.

We had a better than average offense playing freshmen and put +28 pts on the board in more than half of our games, including against 5 then-and-now Top 25 teams. Stop baiting arguments I'm not making.
