Evaluating Muschamp tenure at the helm so far

That is Dak's biggest problem. Our current OC does not seem to be able to develop different plays for different QB's. And he doesn't seem to want to let Dak just go play QB and throw the ball more. But we have not been in the practices and seen what Dak does when he tries doing that.

Like I have said, I was never a college coach, but I think I was a decent HS coach. And I may not know what I am talking about, but I really feel an OC could introduce 2 or 3 plays just for when Dak is in there. Sadly, being a D guru, I really think Champ stays away from the offensive planning and relies on B-Mac to do his thing. That is why I feel we should step up, pay the dollars, and get a real experienced OC. If he had that, Champs recruiting would truly bloom because they would want to play for a winning team, and he could become a really good Coach.

 
He was recruited here to win the state in recruiting. He seems to be an outstanding kid who can do wonders in a bullshit offense but that's not our scheme. Muschamp  needs to find an experienced OC to save his job.

 
Does Caslen have the brass balls to put pressure on Tanner to effect change or is he too hampered by politics to be effective? 

 
Just back from that miserable football game. I can't remember a game where it was so obvious that we were completely out-coached. Athleticism on defense could not overcome outright incompetence on offense, particularly with the play-calling. Yes, we had injuries, yes App State doesn't suck. I know all that. But I also know that we seem incapable of making in-game adjustments. It seems to me we develop a game plan, we nail that sucker to the wall and we cling to it as the walls come crashing down around us.

Bryan McClendon is obviously in way over his head. He's a problem, and just as obviously, Muschamp is a problem. When asked about specifics, all he ever says is the coaches have to get together as a staff and evaluate the film. They don't seem capable of doing a damn thing on the fly. SOS would draw up ball plays in the dirt, but Will needs a week to figure out we can't run it up the gut 30 times in a row. 

Bad coaching was exposed in this game. I hate that our coach threw the receivers under the bus when it was clear who that bus should really be running over. 

 
Good morning Crew, well  hate to say this but we are looking at 4-7 in Booms 5th year been all down hill just like when he was at Florida. Not a sunshine pumper and never been. Ironfan  told it like he saw it. Just want to give a hoot out.  Sometimes it seems fans are negative but they speak the truth.  Power to truth old saying if ain't broken don't fix it. It is broken and needs fixing fast.  My answer here I know will cause some to react negative towards me, But I can take it. Going to be frank and to the point here. Should buy out the 20M. fire Tanner and Muschamp. It is time to realize the experiment with Tanner has not worked out. His laundry list speaks for it's self. He has caused us to have to buy out a coach to the tune of 20M. Muschamp should be fired at the end of season and get a AD that knows football and hire him to find a coach.  This is the best you are going to get out of Muschamp. 

GO COCKS!!

 
We got a good look at what next year is going to look like last night.  Our best players will be gone.  Nobody coming back that can make an impact on either side of the ball.   That’s all the evaluation champ needs.

...it's disturbing. Not sure we didn't have better players in '16 than we'll have in '20.

Does anyone believe the staff has the confidence of the locker room at this point?

Good question.  They’ll say the right things but they know what they see in the staff.   And the staff knows what they see in player potential.   We will probably see another season or two of this staff but they’re all toast here.   Players, impactful ones like we need, will not want to come here and play for a lame duck staff.

Looking at the comments on social media, it appears that the staff has lost the fan support. The number Muschamp apologists is decreasing with each game. His comments about it being unfair were just icing on the cake. 

 
He won’t be fired this year but our OC will.  Chad Morris is available.  That could buy Muschamp a little time.  

 
I don't KNOW that he'll make any staff changes, though I hope he's smart enough to. And if he does, I don't have any confidence he has the connections or evaluation skills to make a significant upgrade to whatever position(s) he replaces. 

I really want to like WM. He seems like a decent guy and he undoubtedly knows football and is willing and able to express that knowledge. His players definitely love him. He needs to be a better head coach. He SHOULD be a better head coach. But if he can't find a way to beat the teams he should beat and gradually improve his team, then I can't like him as USC's coach. That's my minimal expected outcome for any coach, especially in his 4th year with a team entirely of his own making.
