I agree with you Mary. I got watch the all of the game this time online but had to pause since the performance was nauseating. At one point, I did think aloud saying that SOS deserves to be there in Atlanta and not us (...I would have surely celebrated if we had made it to the SECCG though!).
Losing Charlie Strong is also something that is not being highlighted much because of the bigger problem of the offensive mishap that we have run into. So, inexperience in coaching and not having the FULL BLOWN version of Coach Meyer is definitely the biggest factor this season, IMO. -BadMan On Sun, Nov 14, 2010 at 8:47 AM, Mary Weigly <[email protected]> wrote: > As I watch Coach Meyer on the sideline, he looks like he can't believe what > he is seeing... like he doesn't get why the team can't handle the simplest > things -- like know who to block, for example.
