In reply to: I believe you are speaking of the Georgia Tech opener posted by trout

spend the whole spring and summer implementing a spread attack for double disaster, and then shitcan it after one half and go with Clausen/Sharpley.

If he had just gone with a run/play action pass based offense with Sharpley from the beginning, we would have been fine, and Clausen could have worked in as the season went along. We had good running backs and a decent OL that could at least run block (struggled in pass pro).

Of course, he had a completely incompetent and inexperienced DC in coach Cheerios, and that was a disaster as well.

That was a 7 win team that he coached down to 3. Not only that, but many of the losses were just completely uncompetitive. Truly awful job.
