Maybe because Kiffin is a shitty game day coach, and it would be ridiculously stupid to bring him here? 

lol, better than Ron. that was the point of thread if you had read it.

 

There has been plenty of debate about whether or not going for the win or kicking the field goal in that situation is the right thing to do. Welp, most coaches would have went for it. That games evidences that point.

Better than Ron is highly debatable.  Right now he's doing a terrible job as a play caller, and his shittiness is the reason they lost to Washington State. He's a terrible game day coach.  Always has been, and probably always will be.  

 

By the way I did read it, I just think using one good play (which honestly was a no brainer even with how good USC's D is) in a season of bad plays is a pretty bad argument....

I admit my evaluation of college coaches leaves much to be desired. I don't really follow college football so I cant speak too in depth about them. But I stand by the decision he made.

 

and most importantly it won the game

 

They had plenty of opportunities to win the game, and didn't take advantage of them due to poor play calling though.  Also, even as good as Chuckie Keeton is a victory against Utah State should never be in doubt.  Just like a victory against Washington State should be a certainty, but Kiffin made both games much closer then they should have been....

nobodys perfect.  But the good ones win. period.

 

Its happening right now with the Pats.  I hate the Pats. But they still win. Belicheat is a good coach.

I understand nobodies perfect.  But you should at least be a good play caller to manage an offense at USC, which he's not.

No thanks to Sumlin.  I haven't watched a whole lot of Texas A&M's offense over the last couple of years, but from the games I've watched, his gameplan is basically "QB run around and make a play".  That is just a little too simplistic for NFL defenses to shut down.

Kiffin was a pro coach (briefly) and he was awful.

Plenty of so called "Hottest" college coaches have failed in the NFL.

Personally. Give me a HC that can lead. An OC who knows the game. A DC that can teach. A GM with evaluation skills. I be happy.

Let the other teams give those college guys the experience they need. Then I will think about them for my team.

And miss out on the Harbaugh's and Carroll's.  You know, the coaches with probably the two best teams in the league...

      Thielen was a "dawg" like Dan Morgan likes to say. And they replaced him with puppies.  The analytics are probably saying this is more targets for younger receivers they are hoping to develop, specifically the first round pick from 2025. The eye test is going to show a very inexperienced group of WRs that are going to have some serious growing pains, for a 3rd year QB who has not yet proven to be the guy going forward.  It's crazy how in the literal first game of his NFL career, Cam Newton showed everyone he was a star QB and there was never any doubt about that. It almost didn't even matter who was around him, although he definitely had a serious lack of talent at WR for most of his career. Bryce is going into his third season and there is still a ton of doubt, and who is around him is seen as crucial for him to have success. I don't like it.

      Everyone says AT was old and slow but the one thing he could do consistently was get separation. That takes skill and it's been a huge issue in our WR for years. And while Moore may be a great locker room guy and our WR coach may be a 12 year vet, he's not playing in the game. Vets like AT do what they do because they can see things others don't and exploit it. The DB interview I mentioned before was with Stephon Gilmore after his DPOY season. He was pulling the younger DBs aside showing them things you wouldn't even think you'd be able to tell from the way the receiver was standing.  Seeing what a DB or LB is biting on in game that can give you that half step advantage is huge and we don't have that experience in our WR group right now and I think it could end up hurting us. None of our receivers have lined up against NFL corners successfully on a regular basis. Having someone that can walk over and give you a tip to get a half yard separation can be a difference maker.
