I fail to see where I was optimistic... enduring another two years of this
until this staff gets their people is hardly an optimistic proposition.
Maybe I was unclear....
I can tell you this: if Urban et al, can win with Leak and a pro style
offensive player configuration, then Muschamp et al must make a similar
consideration for what they are trying to do.
Weiss is a great offensive mind with pro style players. We were more suited
for Glanville's fun and gun... I merely hope we give them time to get their
players to runtheir system and don't quit and give up like previous
management. Yes, I fault UM for a lot of our current issues. The current
staff seems to be doing better to adapt than they did early on. They have
realized these players don't fit, hence the pistol backfield.
I optimistically think we can beat FSU. Connor shaw killed us running.
Manuel will present that threat but will prefer to throw. I say we force
all our DBs to drink milk every meal for the next two weeks and hope they
grow 2 inches each.....

It won't be up to me and I don't consider myself a "hater" but I have
seen little to be encouraged about. I'm happy you're optimistic but I
think if this type of performance is repeated next year Will Muschamp
will be looking for employment.

I think that is grossly unfair to the new staff. Urban spent a few
years building his idea of a team centered around pure speed. The
talking heads have said countless times we are the fastest team in
Amercia. Unfortunately, it also makes us one of the smallest AND
weakest.
Our offensive line was offensive. Couldn't block USC's D line. Was
an abomination. With scatbacks, we need big holes. We didn't have
them. The big games were a result of amazing vision and cutbacks of
Rainey. We could barely pass block. Brantley is made for this
offense, maybe our receivers are not, but I bet with time, even an
average amount of time, he could fine a developing pattern downfield.
We don't have time to develop an idea of downfield passing.
Our receivers are small, our DBs are small, even Matt Elam plays a LOT
bigger than he is... but we need a combo of size, speed, and strength
to play SEC FOOTBALL...
Think of this... Urban won championships with size, strenght, and
speed of someone else's recruits in 2006 and 2008. Once he got his
own recruits, we have not faired well and neither has Muschamp.
