Is it Capel's, the players, bad luck? At some point, blame has to fall with the big man.
I know we have had some tough breaks with flu, last minute losses etc, but our program is in a pretty bad situation.
Obviously, it comes down to 2 things. System and Personnel.
I was critical of Sampson for not being offensive minded enough, now I am critical of Capel for not being defensive minded enough.
I am starting to wonder if there is such thing as a happy medium.
Personnel wise, Capel has brought in some big fish. But, one of the reasons we are in such bad shape is because the fish he has been bringing in were not "character" guys or just worthless
I know we have talked about defections ad naseum but between defections busts and just bad offers...
Tony Neysmith
Orlando Allen
Kyle Cannon
Juan Patillo
Ray Willis
Chris Early
Hardrick
Guys Sampson Recruited
Kieth Clark
Bobby Maze
More than scheme, this is why we suck. Its not the X's and O's its the Jimmy's and Joe's. I dont meant just talent, I mean mental make up too.
We need guys that will stick around and buy into our program a little more. Give me a talented hard working kid athletically challenged over a good athlete with a bad attitude.
