"Freeman is gone, the MRSA thing is done, Glennon will get a full offseason to prepare as the starter, we'll have a new draft class (you can't knock Schiano's drafting), probably some key FA's, and a bunch of healthy players returning including our kicker which as we found out this season is a pretty important position. All of that most likely equals a drastic improvement in our play and our record,"I would agree with all of this, but the Glazers had to make a change because the fans were revolting. I mean really revolting.Life doesn't always give you a fair shake.
I agree with the premise of this thread. We've got young guys like McCoy who are going on their 3rd coach already, that's a sign of a poorly run franchise. Most of our fans act like spoiled brats, they cry and whine if everything doesn't go exactly how they want 100 percent of the time. It appears the Glazers continue to let that factor into their decision making, and where has that gotten us? Exactly. Continuity can go a long way, unfortunately the Glazers aren't aware of that.
This wasn't a rash decision at all. And if you watched the games this year I honestly can't see how in the high holy hell you couldn't see that Schiano was in over his head. This has been coming for a while.
Instant gratification is what this is about. Nobody wanted to give an inexperienced guy time to learn. He had flaws, obviously, but there were clear signs he was working on them and attempting to be a better coach. You get better with experience, but experience is the last thing some of our fans wanted him to gain because they wanted to be "right" about him. I have no doubt many of our fans were terrified at the thought of him coaching next season, not because they were afraid he'd fail, they were afraid he'd succeed. When you have a guy who seemingly has the respect of his players, has his guys playing hard even through a rough season, and shows he's trying to improve in some of his weaker areas...you should give that guy time. Had we been getting blown out each week like we were under Raheem, that would be another story. I just hope the next guy works out, we're most likely going to have a slew of new assistants, a new QB, and possibly a new offense and defensive system. That's multiple prime years of some of our better players down the drain if the change doesn't work out.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^This^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^It's like finding the sheriff joining in in a lynch mob. You would hope that the owners would not ignore the positives of the last 23 months like the very common masses on this board. Some other franchise will benefit from Dominik's 19 years of experience here, and Penn State will get it's next Joe Pa. The Bucs will have the excuse of a new administration, new staff, and new scheme. There is some hope for the future. Drew Brees can't play forever.
Penn State gets its next Joe Pa? Are you serious?
Dude can't help but overstate when it comes to Schiano.First he was our very own Vince Lombardi. Then he was our very own Tom Landry. Now he will be Penn St's next Joe Pa. ::)
He did the same thing regarding Raheem Morris and Josh Freeman. Dude has issues.
Escobar is a troll who thinks calling someone a "liberal" is an insult. Because it's 2006 still.
