Coaches are in bad position

[Eastknox865]

I was really defending Milton after game 1. After watching today he isn't the answer short term he may be long term. I would really like to see Bailey but it's a few problems with that. One he can't run and two the O-Line has issues. With the current team we have we need a mobile qb but they are either missing throws or turning it over. Guys and gals we need to accept another rebuild.

CJH may need to adjust his playcalling. Great coaches adapt to the players they have. I don't want Butch 2.0 Also you can't convince me Baily is slower than Milton.

I'm sure Heupel, like the rest of us, kept thinking, "Surely he won't overthrow another wide open receiver!"

But we were all wrong.

I expect Bailey will transfer. I find do it hard to believe he's not better than JG or Milton. If coaches just don't want his style or he's not as good as expected, either way I see him leaving by the end of season at the latest.

I was defending Milton after game 1, no more. Hoping he doesn’t see the field again this year. He isn’t the QB for this team.

I agree—the few times HB scrambled last year he actually did it really well.

Ummm, did you see Milton get into the open field on the long run? No way Bailey is faster than Milton.

Neither of our mobile quarterbacks have shown an ability to sense pressure and avoid it with any consistency. How bad is Bailey to not get a shot in front of them?

We have a serviceable QB today and we win. That 4th and goal call was atrocious though.

Milton is fast but just not a natural runner. He could be a top college QB if he was more accurate and quicker to process.

bailey the best qb on this team see him in the transfer portal very soon if things dont change.

I sincerely believe that he quit on the play where he fumbled. I understand that he was injured during the takedown, but it looked like he simply let go of the ball to put both hands down and catch himself. I’m not going to be over that for a minute.

I think most of us realized this 6 months ago? Not just a rebuild, but a multi-year rebuild. I think we have a good staff in place, but we need to settle in for the long haul.
We need to focus on the positives and appreciate any improvements. Adult beverages may help.

Have you scanned our recruiting class? It’s going nowhere fast. The passing days only translate to a rebuild if you’re stacking talent. Otherwise, you’re breaking even at best which’ll give you not much against quality opponents.

He got caught from behind - he aint that fast.
