You have disparaged and slandered Kenny Hill.
Waiting for a counter punch from I-Frog.
That's iFrog and you know what some people on here think about names that don't begin with a capital letter.

And the song playing is “Take a Step Back”!!You know the routine. All of the coaches go into a room with chairs arranged in a circle. They all stand around the chairs, then music is played. As the music is playing, the coaches are all walking around the chairs. When the music stops, the coaches suddenly stop & sit in a chair with the coaching positions taped under the seats. That's how the coaching shuffle is done here. No new blood, or ideas. Just wash, rinse, repeat. It's the Patterson way.
It's been 9 years. If he hasn't built the depth he needs, he isn't ever going to. Makes more sense to accept that the players aren't going to suddenly change for the better, so maybe we ought to try outcoaching the other teams?Where do you guys come up with some of this [ #2020 ]? I swear. You really think CGP is just sitting around fat and happy playing his guitar and only worried about his defense looking good? We recruit well but not at the level of OU and UT past the first team yet we’ve pretty much owned UT since we joined the conference. We don’t have their depth. CGP has done more with less since he got here and that’s not a knock on our players, just the reality that he has to deal with. He has to grow up our depth. That’s been his biggest challenge. Sure he could bring in some whiz bang offensive guru and the new guy would still be faced with the depth issue. We don’t have any 5 stars riding the pine waiting three years for their chance to shine. Doesn’t take a genius to understand that we are who we are.

After the Covid thread where people were eating their young, I’m not sure if iFrog is still around. Maybe he’s lurking, no idea.You have disparaged and slandered Kenny Hill.

Eight, 95% is on target with your statement. That is until we go out a find smart, robust young lad who will take on this challenge. Money is not the problem, facilities is not the problem. School reputation is not the problem but mind set is!
The Kansas State game this year was an absolute travesty.How we compete against the teams we have more talent than is really all that matters. We haven’t done so well against those teams as of late. There’s a talent gap between TCU and OSU, WVU, KSU, ISU, Bay, TT and it tips in our favor against all of them....Losing those teams flat sucks
The Kansas State game this year was an absolute travesty.
Substitute Sonny Cumbie for Shawn Robinson in your post and then we are almost on the same page.We had a chance to seize momentum after the 2014, 2015 seasons. KH and the boys had flashes in 2017 with 10 wins. It’s made us feel optimistic with the young talent. Then putting all our chips in on Shaw Robinson screwed us. Set the offense back 2 years, which in turn set the whole team back. We have the talent to be really good next year if the O-line works “hard” on perfecting their craft in the off season. Anything less than 9 wins in 2021 will be a failure with the last three years recruiting classes. It’s on Gary and his coaches. We can complete with anyone in this Conf, even OU.
When that fails, then GP will look at the caterers & the wedding planner.
Cumbie is already gone. So now what happens? Totally new OC with new ideas. Rearrange from within?
I certainly would like to see a new, experienced, proven QB coach. I never saw improvement of any of the QB's during Cumbie's term, and that includes Boykin: he started out hot in 2014, played about the same in 2015...more of a system change than QB development. Boykin was in his fourth year in 2014 with two years starting experience. Kenny Hill did not look that good until in his fifth year after a summer with a QB "guru". If anything, Duggan looks worse throwing the ball now than he did his first few games. Once again the only constant factor 2016-2020, when the offense performed about the same was Cumbie.
I am favor at least of bring in a QB coach from an FCS or G5 school that has consistently developed new QB's. There are those out there who perform this year after year, QB after QB. No excuses of "he was a once in a generation QB." Although he seems a great guy, I think HIll is a little too inexperienced and unproven. Duggan is just too talented a QB to keep playing (throwing) like he has. He needs a coach who will truly develop him.
I look for improvement, taking into account other factors such as injuries. For that reason I think Anderson did the best coaching job on offense this year, or maybe even the whole team.
On defense, get replacements ready and figure out why were were so prone to blown assignments. I always expect 1 or maybe 2 per game, but this year you could count on a receiver catching the ball with nobody around him or a RB who would not get touched
Anyway, I look forward to see what changes are made after the bowl system.[
Think it's been suggested here before, but Graham Harrell should be our new OC/QB coach.
