I'm glad we decided not to listen to the post-game. I probably would have cried.
BTW UF soccer lost today in penalty kicks after going through double overtime at 0-0 against Duke. ----- Original Message ----- From: [email protected] To: Cc: Sent:Sun, 14 Nov 2010 20:05:54 -0500 Subject:Re: [gatortalk] THUD I thought the same thing about the postgame interview. Urban sounded like he had cobwebs in his head, had a hard time even answering questions and, in fact, replied "I'm not prepared to answer that right now" more times than I've ever heard it used by a coach. It was almost more than I could stand to listen to. :-( Cee ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jay Cicone" To: Sent: Sunday, November 14, 2010 2:04 PM Subject: RE: [gatortalk] THUD Amen, Brother. If any of you heard Meyer in the post game interview, it was beyond belief. He was more than a deer in the headlights with zero expanation for anything. No answers to any of the questions asked. Her was sapped of all life force and struggling to maintain. I have never heard the man so disheartened, confused and befuddled. It was absolutely telling and amazing. The ship has made a complete 180 and the captain is clueless---or at least not wanting to hurt any feelings by speaking the truth...in my book though it's more pf the former. Meyer has been gutted emotionally. Yes, the wheels have come off the wagon. I'm interested in anyone elses take on the post game interview---the worst I've ever witnessed---it made Zook sound like a genius. ________________________________ From: [email protected] [3] on behalf of Scott Lucas Sent: Sun 11/14/2010 11:03 AM To: Gator Talk Subject: [gatortalk] THUD Shouldn't have been a surprise. It was the same offense and same playcalling that we have seen all season. Same 3 yard patterns when we need 7 for a first down. Same gadget and gimmick plays that just plain don't work when you don't have the advantage of a wildcat quarterback. There was no magic to the last 2 wins... think about this: nothing changed, it was a card trick, we got some players back and suddenly we were good again? No, we played 2 teams with questionable defenses. UGA and Vandy have no D. Its that simple. We lost every game to teams that have better than average defenses. Alabama, LSU, MSU, and now SoCar. I fully expect FSU to beat us. I hope I am wrong. But the Brantley experiment needs to end, and quite possibly the Adazzio one. I think Adazzio can succeed once he learns to adapt to the players he has. He also needs to call plays where everyone is on the same page. The option read is killing us, the lineman look confused and don't know who or where to block. The receivers, running backs and QBs are all making different reads. They Oline does a much better job when they KNOW they are passblocking and need to create a pocket. The skill players then know where to go. You can see it later in the games when trying to play catchup when Burton, and now Reed, runs the offense with much greater success. This is not a spread option offense. This is a dual threat offense which creates the man up advantage the same as the wildcat offense does. Without that type of QB, you lose that advantage and the defense has the advantage. A good defense will destroy us. They have, and they will. Meyer is in a terrible position with Brantley. He seems to feel he owes him some chance and opportunity, but if so, why not give him that chance by running an offense that he has a snowball's chance in hell of succeeding in? They have successfully taken a former Mr. Florida and recordx breaking QB and reduced him to an ineffective has been. Its kin to character assassination. Its like asking me to write software code for Apple but only in Cantonese. Imagine Brantley's internal frustration... I will say this: at the beginning of the season, Brantely was all we had. We discovered Burton and Reed along the way, but it is the coaches job to give us the best chance to win and put the best players in the positions to do that. Either put in an offense for Brantley or admit you failed him and Gator Nation and let's do what this offense dictates. Jordan Reed at QB, Burton in the slot or TE, Rainey and Demps in the other slot and RB, and rotate all WRs except Deonte until he can catch a ball that hits him in both hands, and tell the O-line to play like they did with Timmy and go win some games. Until the pride is swallowed and they admit they screwed up, this won't improve. I don't see how it can. You can't keep forcing that square peg into that round hole. Sure, we will get the feel good, "we can do this" wins against overmatched teams, but that won't win an SEC schedule. We have seen that this year... Sent from Yahoo!
