I think we are at this point. I was hoping we would make big changes after last year, but unfortunately we did not. We went with the band-aid approach and it is not working. We have no depth at QB and no depth at OL. Our play calling doesn't fool too many people. That's got to be someone's fault.I would make him clean house on offense. Do a nationwide search for an OC who can bring in his own staff. Maybe keep Malcolm Kelly
Talk to Coach P after the season. If he wants to continue at TCU, determine why adding Kill and Meach to the mix with Cumbie plus Anderson at o-line was not the answer. Urge him to fix all that immediately. If Coach P digs in and goes with status quo, it must be made clear that if we don’t at least finish in the upper half of the conference next year, and are on a path to soon challenge for a conference championship, it’ll be time to part ways.
I’m not sure Donati or anyone can force Coach P to do anything. It’s Gary’s choice how this goes. Leash is getting short.
I mean it's real easy for someone to force him, assuming the people that have the power to do it actually WANT to......
Hey Gary, yeah listen man, we're tired of paying you 6 million plus a year to run that [ Cumbie’s red zone playcalling ]show of an offense out there each week so here's what we're gonna do.... we're gonna get rid of Anderson, Meach, and Sonny and bring in someone that has the autonomy to do whatever he wants with the offense OR you can retire. Let me know. Thanks.
That aint gonna happen with GP.

I think next year is the year. We have a ton of experience coming back on both sides of the ball. I'd say, Big XII conference championship game or bust.

My bigger concern is the portal. If this is where we are then why in the world would some of our better talented skill players want to hang around for a potential turn around? Its too easy for players to up and leave and I am worried we may see some of that....or really more of that I guess since we have seen some already.
I sadly agree with this.My prediction is Sonny will go and be replaced by another OC who we'll call a “Co-OC” with Meacham. He’ll start out handcuffed because he couldn’t bring anyone with him and things will look a little better for about half a season. GP will do the bare minimum to say he made changes and we'll have this same discussion next year.
Hey, if we don't go at least 9-3, 8-4 next year, I'll agree that GP has lost his step. Until then, give the issues we've had at QB and both lines, I think the old guy still has something left in him.So we've found the "Next year is our year guy"
