<p><br> </p> <blockquote><p>Oh, I haven't even touched on my defensive take yet... while adequate, it hasn't provided what we are used to or expect. Austin is running a pro style D which has a lot of movement around the LOS. The problem wih that with the Gators is that we don't have studs across the board that make that work. There has to be credible threat, speed, and production from the two down lineman as well as all the ends and LBs standing up trying to create confusion. I don't see that working with us without much more time in the system to learn it. Again, a lot of reading and relying on others to do and be where they belong.<br><br></p> <p>Sent from Yahoo!

Did all the months off from January through August, combined with delegating so much of his coaching duties, distance him from his players? <br></p> <p>I think the answer is "yes." I think that by stepping back from micromanaging, he lost his "feel" for the team - who he can count on to perform, who needs what kind of coaching, etc. Also, he's dealing with new coaches. <br></p> <p>What I see, in the sideline shots of Coach Meyer, is someone who can't believe what he's seeing AND doesn't know what the hell he can do to cure it. Lou Holtz pegged it during the halftime segment; he said there aren't enough adjustments that can be made at halftime to cure the problems we have, when guys don't know who to block, where to be, and how to tackle (okay, I made that last one up :-)). <br></p> <p>It will be interesting to see what happens with our coaching in the off season. <br></p> <p>ATM, there isn't enough alcohol to dull the pain I feel. <br></p> <p>UGH<br></p> <p>...in all kinds of weather, Gators.<br></p> <p>Mary</p> <p>-- <br> <font color ="#888888">GATORS: ONE VOICE ON SATURDAY - NO VOICE ON SUNDAY!</font><br> <font color ="#888888">1996 National Football Champions | 2006 National Basketball Champions</font><br> <font color ="#888888">2006 National Football Champions | 2007 National Basketball Champions</font><br> <font color ="#888888">2008 National Football Champions | </font><br> <font color ="#888888">Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996),</font><br> <font color ="#888888">Tim Tebow (2007) - Visit our website at </font><a href="http://www.gatornet.us";><font color ="#888888">www.gatornet.us</font></a><br> </p> </blockquote> </blockquote> <blockquote><p></p> <p>-- <br> GATORS: ONE VOICE ON SATURDAY - NO VOICE ON SUNDAY!<br> 1996 National Football Champions | 2006 National Basketball Champions<br> 2006 National Football Champions | 2007 National Basketball Champions<br> 2008 National Football Champions | <br> Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996),<br> Tim Tebow (2007) - Visit our website at <a href="http://www.gatornet.us";>www.gatornet.us</a> <br> </p> </blockquote> <p></p>
