Color me unimpressed

Well, actually, the loudmouths who aggressively patrolled these threads attacking any poster who might have pointed to the limitations of this coach and his experience, and who might have dared to criticize his management of player relations and motivations, are pretty damned quiet today, for sure. This includes certain moderators.

Peyton isn't a moderator, I have watched this site for years. He is a dictator and he single handedly ruined it by playing favorites to the usual trolls.

This team never really recovered after the loss to UNAU.

The Chalich game was only a distraction, which I maintain would have been lost without his performance. I don't pretend to know why things went this way, particularly after playing well enough to beat UNIU on the road, which is really troubling. I was there and honestly, really felt like they'd potentially turned the corner on how to play on the road. Wasn't a pretty game but the offense didn't beat them with turnovers and the defense was good enough to make a punt return the difference. The stat-maker was out for two games, and his replacement was good enough to win one of them. Maybe I'm the only one to have noticed, but that supposed multiple or adapting 3/4 or 4/3 defense never really materialized. We did see however, an abundance of group hug tackles and kitchen sink blitzes that were less and less effective as the season wore on. We really missed a dominant pass rusher this season, didn't we?

To the poster who brought the Parcells quote into another thread, absolutely right - you are what your record says you are. And Choate was also right when he said that the real work is beginning. We can only hope the "young" excuse and a Stitt QB in the wings is true. Welcome to the off-season from hell.
 
Gentlemen,

Please be patient, this is only coach Stitt's second year, he needs to get the athletes he needs to perfect his GENIUS offense, he has already disposed of the coach that didn't see his vision, and replaced him with a savant, as like himself to DC.

Look he is going to accomplish this in three years, or perhaps six, what he couldn't in fifteen years.

Forgive my sarcasm, expect more of the same next season, those at School of Mines did for fifteen years, the U's administration will be satisfied with mediocrity as with admissions of enrollment, till the football programs recedes to the level it was at, when played at Dornblazer....

My entertainment dollars for season tickets, and GSA enrollment, plus other GSA contributions was well worth the product being put on at WG stadium, although in the past few years other than the tailgate festivities, this is fading in where entertainment dollars should be spent...

If enrollment continue to decline, and season ticket holders start to decline, perhaps the BOR will take notice.

This is what it looks to me must take place, before Engstrom, and his inept AD will take action.

I'm the lucky one, I witness the rise of the football program to become the envy of the BS and respected by the FCS conference, that is no longer and the decline has been hurtful.
 
Bottom line: young men just don't want to play football for Bob Stitt. If it wasn't for scholarships and this being a life dream for most of them, difficult to give up even under onerous circumstances, we might not have had a team on the field this past month. They are sick of the guy.

I have never, in well over 40 years at this University, seen a football coach so disliked by his team.

So you have first hand knowledge that the entire football team dislikes Stitt and are sick of the guy?

The logical fallacy is that, with more resources, Stitt "might" have accomplished more. Of course, so might his opponents at the DII level. And you can make the argument for every failure that ever happened. It's an age old excuse for failure, not a recommendation for a Head Coach position. Somehow, UM got that backwards. The fact is, this was a hire that was vastly oversold.

None of the "hype" was true. There is no "innovative" offense. There is no "creative" thinking. Instead, we have a coach who can't inspire, alienates his team and disparages them in public, and is surprisingly unadaptable and inflexible, both on and off the field.

There is nothing there that even remotely suggests that he needs another year to "make it work." There is nothing there to "make work."

This is a bill of goods we were all sold! We bought into it lock, stock and barrel! I guess we may be considered "suckers!"
