Yeah, don't know why Dooley did not run down to the field and make sure all eleven players were on the field...oh wait, he was in the press box

Of all the people in the stadium he should have seen it first. What was he doing with a headset?
 
This is the only specific example. The others are either vague or have absolutely nothing to do with failure to pay attention to detail.

Illegal formation twice on punts? How about the fact that our kicking game has only gotten worse every year since Dooley has been here? And the pooch kickoff is the ultimate example of lack of attention to detail. I don't care how uncommon it is, that is something that must be practiced. Maryville High School practices that every Wednesday for crying out loud. Dooley can't squeeze a couple of pooch kicks into practice? I will give him credit for getting depth and talent back on the roster. He also hit it out of the park with Pittman and Graham. Props for those positive things he has done for the program. As far as managing the team as a leader, coaching them to their potential, demanding excellence, gameplanning, and paying attention to those details mentioned, he has failed greatly.
 
Pointless to argue with people who refuse to see the other side of an argument.

What is the other side? The running game has improved? Sure, but it took 2 years and a loss to Florida to convince this staff that we have to commit to running to win.

Otherwise, the defense is regressing. We haven't played for four quarters, and it took us 6 games into the season to make every extra point attempt.

Yet...I'm told that pointing that out makes me the enemy. That is just silly. This team is underachieving. There isn't a darn thing I can do about it.

Just last sar'dy we had ten players on the field and allowed a TD....that is not a lack of attention to detail?
I remember Nick Saban and Les Miles both doing the same thing in both the SEC Championship Game and the National Championship Game. Guess they should be criticized and fired for that.
 
Underachieving by losing to three top 15 teams? OK. I didn't think we were a top 15 team this year, but maybe I had realistic expectations.

Georgia might be in the top 15 when it is all said and done. MSU won't sniff it. You think this team played up to its potential last week?
