Go watch the Baylor and Arkansas games if you want to see why Ford wasn’t playing much the first half of the season. Stop acting like we had Ray Lewis on the bench and didn’t know it. Just like every other linebacker on the roster, Ford looked lost and then as the year went on he *gasps* got better. He developed, he improved. I’m gonna guess you won’t chalk that one up to coaching.
It’s funny to see all the goalpost moving that had occurred the last 5 months. We started in December with bitching about OL recruiting, then it was assurances that our coaches would somehow screw up getting Ewers, then it was no way they will upgrade at DB, then it was we are young and inexperienced at TE, then it was fine they’ve addressed those needs but who’s going to catch passes opposite of Worthy, finally it was our LB depth is trash and they didn’t do anything to address it.
Now that all those boxes have been checked, people just move to the ole reliable “I jUsT dOnT tRuSt tHeSe CoAcHeS”.
It’s okay to admit that the coaches have done a good job of adding pieces, cutting dead weight and addressing needs. Outside of edge, every single need position was addressed (and there were a lot of them, we just went 5 and fucking 7)
Rant over. Enjoy the rest of your Friday.
