Frank Beamer went 2-8-1 in his second season. Fired his entire staff to save his job and went on a run of almost 20 years. I don't see that happening here.

I have seen no evidence that Collins is willing to replace coaches or starting players.Collins has proven he can recruit players and that’s about it. Let’s find out if he can recruit good coaches too.
Ok let's be honest.
Special teams are fantastic after sucking for over a decade.
Offense is coming together
The problem is defense. It's not a talent problem - we have studs in the back 7. It's coaching. Thacker is in over his head - let him go for god's sake.
That's why it is probably time to replace him if he's unwilling.I have seen no evidence that Collins is willing to replace coaches or starting players.
Not really seeing where Thacker earned being our DC.......
"After graduating from Furman, Thacker coached at UCF, Oklahoma State, Southern Miss, the NFL's Atlanta Falcons, Kennesaw State and back at UCF before becoming Temple's linebacker coach underneath Geoff Collins in 2017."

Are we continuing to play Swilling because of his name and Thomas because we are recruiting his brother? Or is it just Collins refusal to replace anyone? The competition is king mantra is a joke.I would never defend our defensive coaches because they have be stealing pay checks, however to say we have studs in the secondary is a crazy stretch. Just because they have been around forever and we know their name doesn’t mean they are any good.
I know this. This year, we have lost to teams that have recruited better than us and lost to teams that recruited worse than us. It is not just a talent issue.I would never defend our defensive coaches because they have be stealing pay checks, however to say we have studs in the secondary is a crazy stretch.

Well they damn sure ain’t coached upI would never defend our defensive coaches because they have be stealing pay checks, however to say we have studs in the secondary is a crazy stretch. Just because they have been around forever and we know their name doesn’t mean they are any good.

Yes. Our defense has played slumpbuster for too many ööööty offensesI've seen enough to tell me this defensive staff is not working. 30 YPC is indefensible. BC probably doubled their scoring average against us. Who among us thought we'd get a stop on the 3rd and long when we absolutely had to have it? Sure enough, a guy runs wide open down the middle of the field for an easy completion.
Multiple teams this season have destroyed their average offensive output in their games against us. It's not working. Afaic, we should keep Marco Coleman and fire the rest of the defensive staff tonight. I've been a Thacker apologist. No more.
