...no offensive identity

...inconsistent / poor QB development

...failure to assemble a solid staff of seasoned assistants with big game experience and that doesn't feature at least one GVSU (or other) crony

...no signature win in a major bowl game

...rarely, if ever, a complete game; never a complete team

...poor game prep and in-game adjustments



But he coaches a clean program. No scandals, no bad

publicity.

Oh, ... never mind.


8 years or 9 years... it's fair to say that at this point

This has become our tradition.


The QB development is most concerning.

In his nine years Kelly has failed to take a QB and make them better from their first game to when they leave. I can easily see Book being replaced by Jurkovec and we get excited as he looks great for a few games but the cycle will repeat.


Any good opposing DC with film on whoever is ND's QB

knows exactly how to stop them. That is what is most concerning, along with the fact that, with 3 weeks to prepare, there was apparently no preparation other than practicing the exact same schemes, formations and plays that we have been running all year. Did you see Nick Saban sit on his laurels with 3 weeks to prepare? Nope. He put in a formation that included Jalen Hurts split. Oklahoma was completely unprepared for it.


Indeed. Where were the speedy freshmen Kelly indicated

would play? Did they even see the field?

Why no packages with Brandon Wimbush on the field in the backfield or in the slot?

The only wrinkle as I saw it was the absurd flea flicker which caught no one off guard and has never worked once, not since Kelly used it in his first game as a head coach with a true-freshman-deer-in-the-headlights Tommy Rees.
