Radio Now: Talking VOLS- With Hyams

Irwin has come out and said that he's not ready for a coaching change.

i think i heard him say that he was not ready to get rid of fulmer, but that he thought that someone at the assistant level needs to be evaluated. sounded like he has someone in his sights as the problem (the D backs coach, maybe?). irwin has griped about the secondary for quite a while (with good reason), and just said that the last really smash mouth DB that we had was dale carter -- long ago.

Yeah... but it was kind of weird/cryptic, because he pointed out that he wasn't ready for Fulmer to leave, but he then said that someone's position needed to be re-evaluated. Then he talked about knowing Fulmer very well, and saying that he knows Fulmer wouldn't have punted late in the game. Apparently, he was insinuating that the decison to punt isn't on Fulmer and that this mystery coach is a suspect for needing to be replaced.

Weird...

That guy is clearly delusional. This whole game had fulmer's fat thumb print on it.

I keep thinking about Les Miles going for it on 4th down 5 times against UF. we're faced with 2 4th downs that we should have gone for it and we punted. Bama takes the ball and score putting the game further and further out of reach. As the margin grew our team just quit.

agree -- weird and cryptic comments on irwin's part. i wish that he could just come out and say it straight.

It's clear he's trying to single out Slade (and maybe Brooks? when he said we weren't getting a pass rush :ermm:), but I have no idea who to blame for punting in several of those situations. He said he knows Fulmer wouldn't have punted if he felt we had a chance, then who else on the staff makes that call? Cutty?:dunno:

Foster was averaging over five yards per rush when we punted on both of the fourth and short midfield. Also, why when we are gaining some serious yards rushing do we try a little stupid throw for two yards on 3rd down instead of just running it down their throats? I even called it while I was watching it. If I can see it, defensive coordinators can see it and expect it.

which is why i didn't agree that sanders' play calling was the source of TN's woes. some of the stuff i've seen from cut looks just like RS.

i do think getting cut was a good move, and that he is a much better QB coach than RS. i just never thought that a new OC was going to save the day and that has proven to be true.

I'm going to the Kentucky game and hold up a sign that says, "Sorry we made you the scapegoat, Randy."
