Gary, This Has Gotten Really, Really Bad

[tcumaniac]

Your program has become an absolute disaster.

Your secrecy, misdirection, BS non answers to the media, and other quirks used to be somewhat endearing when you won football games, but now it’s become obnoxious and really embarrassing. Your constant excuses have grown old.

You claim you want to compete for championships, we spend money like we want to compete for championships, yet you’ve insulated yourself with yes men, best buds, and under qualified coaches that wouldn’t be touched by other programs.

I’m forever grateful for what you did for this program, but TCU spends way too much money on you, your coaches, and this program to tolerate this crap.

Enough is enough. There needs to be drastic change. I’m not quite ready to say it needs to include you, but if you’re unwilling to adapt and make some difficult decisions, maybe it should.

I’ve not heard him say that he wants to compete for championships in a long time. Maybe he has but I haven’t heard it

 

[JugbandFrog]

I remember getting chastised for not feeling confident about the direction of the program after the UT win

We are definitely not going in a good direction

 

[JugbandFrog]

I believe in LHCGP. I don’t believe in his assistants

I was with you in that

I am not with you on this though

 

[Moose Stuff]

It's an absolute low point for sure. It's time for major changes and ASAP. I fear we're staring down the barrel of a "lose the staff or lose many of the talented young players" type scenario and I have little confidence that we will make the correct decision.

You can't do both. GP is the only reason these guys have jobs. Their existence and performance as TCU coaches is entirely his doing.

that last minute was an embarrassment. Riley was willing to run out the clock but Gary inexplicably stops the clock and gives OU three more points.

Time for a change!

How about the TO on the kickoff??? Dude is totally lost. He is no longer the right guy for this program.

 

[Froggy Style]

These OC’s have been doing this same boring crap for 4-5 years with zero changes. Of course everyone has figured them out.

you can say the same for Gary. Adapt or die.

Gary is shocked every week when someone steals his signs.

I guess he can’t adapt.

 

[George Carson]

The biggest thing I’ve noticed is we play not to lose rather than play to win. Gary is so worried and paranoid about putting his defense in a bad spot that we just ooze conservative game plan. I think everyone in the conference knows this and plans for it now. Gary needs to catch back up to the game because right now it is flying by him.

This.

GMFP is the man who must make a choice. For a long time, he has gotten away with hanging on to friends. Nobody wants to fire a friend.

He faces some difficult choices.

Somebody needs to get fired this week. I kinda don't care who it is. Just something to show that the coaching staff is as angry about the on-field performance as our players seemed to be after the coaches gave up and punted on the 4th quarter 4th down.

 

[Paul in uhh]

I believe in LHCGP. I don’t believe in his assistants

I generally agree, except that GP is the one who makes the choice of which assistants he surrounds himself with.

Saban went after forward thinkers like Kiffin and Sarkisian. GP went after...... Jerry Kill!

case closed!

 

[Ghost of Tobys Business College]

I'm worried we start seeing a mass exodus to the portal. Players really looked angry today.

Your second paragraph has zero to do with winning football.

 

[Zubaz]

We are one fumble at the 1 yard line going in from being winless.

 

[Pure Purple]

Maybe his consuming desire to be a song writer and recording artist has finally taken precedence.

Yep.
