But I really can't find anyway to stay positive. I always try to keep perspective. Even after Florida I didn't act like the sky was falling. I see the problems but try not to just blow up about them. Trust the coaches and all ya know. I realize what I say makes no difference at all. I realize some think that we fans aren't owed anything and all that jazz. But I got some calling out to do. I'll start at the top and go down...
1. Hugh Freeze, your team shows no heart, passion or pride. That's on you. That's what you are there for. Whether it's because you have leaches around the team taking away focus and what this is all about or what I don't know. But it's on you to fix. That's the most important thing. You said you couldn't promise wins and such but you could promise passionate 60 minutes of football every time. Well that ain't happening. Secondly, for your sanity and the team's best interest find you an OC that you can trust and let him be the freaking OC. You take care of the motivation, passion and discipline.
2. Matt Luke, thank you and your family for what you have done for OM. We love you and your family. Now, do OM a favor and resign after the season. Quit like Spurrier and say, "I'm just in the way it's time for someone else to have their chance to see if they can do better."
3. Dave Womack, I don't think you forgot how to coach so I don't blame you. But if these starters aren't going to step up then lose with some youngsters that may wanna make some noise. We played harder with far less talent for the last three years. So sit some folks if you have to. EDITED: to add, hey Dave why on 3rd and 13 are we not seein some kind of exotic blitz package or something?
4. Tony Bridges, son you are soft. You move up to press and then before the snap you are backing out and as the WR runs at you, you backpedal further. Once he get's to you he just pretty much shoves you back 10 yards and curls. Are you that weak? Do you not have more heart and pride than to let a WR from Memphis make you their little bitch?
5. Marquis Haynes, same thing SOFT! They run right at you at the goal line and you can't even string the play out. Instead they are blocking you one on one and you just backpedal all the way to the goal line. How about grabbing that OT with your hands and at least act like you are trying to throw him off of you. Don't just backpedal like you are scared to death of him. Stand up son and be counted!
6. OL, only player I see with fire in his belly really is Conyers. That isn't because his daddy is here either. If it weren't true I just wouldn't say anything. Patterson is a freshman and Rawlings is a red shirt fresh so you can't expect them to be vocal and leaders. No one will pay them attention. They have played as well as could be expected and probably above. Bell you are a team captain and weigh over 300 pounds. I saw on consecutive plays where a Memphis DE just bull rushed right over you. He weighs about 260! Maybe you can't move but damn you telling me you can't lower your big ass a little and absorb a hit and stonewall a 260 pound kid for 2 seconds? Aaron Morris I know you have injuries but you are a sixth year senior. LEAD!
Ok I'm done. Sorry I drove over 3 hours coming home and really tried to calm down and make sense out of today's loss. But I just can't find any positives. I'm at a loss. I just don't know. Glad I'm going scuba diving next weekend. I need a break.
