Hey, seriously not trying to be a dick here. If he tears up the FCS with this offense I promise I'll be back here to eat crow. I'm just not buying into all the hype and I'm not saying he's going to fail, but this isn't going to be an instant tranformation, magic bullet for the griz as some posters have suggested. I have a few reasons for saying that, but we'll see how things play out. IMO he should be an offensive coordinater. The quite below should probably concern the griz faithful.

"I was a small-college player, and I never had anybody in my entire coaching career call me up and say, 'Hey, you want this job?' I've had to interview and grind for every job I ever got," Stitt said. "This is the first time somebody called me and asked me if I was interested. I've been ready for this for a long time."

I guess we'll see but i agree with you that it will take some time to get everything put in place. Its just not going to happen over night.

I do think it will take time and isn't going to happen this weekend or maybe not even this year but I disagree with your hype comments. Many big time college coaches have "bought" the hype, so I'm willing too. To your coordinator comment, he's basically our offensive coordinator and him giving gregorak freedom on the "D"; it's a perfect fit in my mind. Which isn't worth much :lol: but in time I think he'll be successful. Best case scenario halfway through this year and IMO next year.

Why would you think anyone here would expect you to "buy into the hype"?
 
That was a fantastic article. Seriously, how can you not be a believer? Stitt is a brilliant man and there are very exciting times ahead for the Griz.
 
"I had a local here tell me, 'I'd rather lose 52-51 than win 10-9,'" Stitt said. "That tells you how people feel about offense."

I'd say 99% of fans disagree with that.. But ok, coach.

That statement has the aroma of pickles...

I agree. What kind of fan would ever want to lose a game rather than win a game? Personally, I like defensive battles, even better than offensive battles. Great article, though. Has good substance in it. By the way, I think Stitt was receiving multiple calls regarding jobs, both OC and head coach, in recent years. Perhaps not offers, but at least inquiries.

Stitt has said multiple times that he needs to be both OC and HC to run this offense. He cant have a HC telling him no in certain situations. He has been offered OC job's in the past.

Pretty damn sure he was offered the OC job at either USC or UCLA at one point...

He's a cat fan. All they have is hype.
