None of us really know what goes on at practices and behind closed doors so I won't really comment on if he is a good coach. On one hand, if other big programs and the NFL is wanting you, that points to being a good coach. On the other hand, development has been lacking in the RB room. Maybe...
Just my uneducated guess...he never regained his pre injury explosiveness and was pissed he wasn't handed the starting job outright. it snowballed from there
I don't recall this being his position.
I'd have to go back and listen but I'm pretty sure he was saying IF we aren't going to commit the resources to the program, you might as well roll out a team like described
I guess I would counter that and say it actually could be worse defensively.
If you take a high level view of the year, scoring hasn't been a big issue (outside of crunch time scoring obviously).
So it makes sense to me to try and get the best defensive lineups out there.
I'd like to actually listen to the interview before drawing any conclusions on it.
Sometimes posters like to stretch what is said to fit the narrative they want.
