Biggest challenges for this season

[BrentwoodJacket]

Could be a trap game. I hope we're not looking ahead to WCU.

I am more concerned about being beat up before a must win game on a short week against a WCU team which sees us as their chance for a signature win.

Pole fail. No option for "one of the most historic transitions in all of college football history."

Having to look at the eyesore our artificial turf is

Under our head coach the last 3 seasons:
Lost to Citadel and not being able to move the ball at all the entire game except for a few big plays
Lost to Northern Illinois
Lost to Temple along with being shut out even after an extra week to prepare for his previous team of just one year prior
Lost to Syracuse with that being Syracuse’s only win all year
Lost to Clemson to the extent of the score being the worst in the history of ACC teams playing against each other
Numerous starters quitting the team after last season—wondering if those players know something about the future of our program

Thanks. We didn't know about any of these things happening until you showed up to tell us. Moron.

I apologize. You are right.. LOL We could throw that under coaching, I suppose...

Since when is calling facts out, being a moron? I find nothing worth an insult, with that post. We should be reminded, as a lot of people tend to "forget". Now, whether these losses can be tied to Collins? That can be debated. However; simply stating facts, should not receive such bile.

My biggest issue goes back to team and coaching is the lack of D progress over the past three years. We all admit that cgc inherited an average defense with a pretty good (on the field in 2018) young secondary. That secondary and D both regressed over time. Carpenter is the prime example. A very good player with frosh talent regressed (or didn’t) improve for us , at least in our d scheme, for three years. Yet here he is, solidly on an nfl roster for game one. Mason (yes I know he was on O..just making a point here) and others fit this nfl “surprise” over the past couple of years. Why didn’t we properly utilize / grow that talent while here, if we had that D mindset and coaching in place with cgc and Thacker? We wasted (or lost) the good personnel that he had.

that said I’m done looking back, LFG!

So, our biggest issue is our coaches ability to utilize the players? I guess my question is, what hopes do you have, that this has been corrected? I, like you, want to see this team put some Ws on the board. I want to see these kids get rewarded for the hard work. I want GT, to become a team that is feared. However; facts are, we aren't. So, should I of put our overall schemes, as a choice? Because, that is what I am reading.
