Before I expound let me give you a bit of my back ground with our beloved football team. I literally did pay per view to watch Spurrier and Florida beat Curry`s wildcats 73-7 or something close to that. I was in the stands on a 28 degree winter day watching Hal Mumme`s last team get the stew kicked out of them by Vandy. I was also there with very good seats to see us lose to LSU on the last Hail Mary- Bled and bled with this football program over the years and spent quite abit of money doing so. Before the season I looked at our returning roster , and the portal guys they brought in along with 5 star Brock and 4 star Gavin at QB, and truly thought this could be a 9 win team. VERY tough schedule, but I had losses to Georgia, Ole Miss and Texas, but secretly thought we could get Georgia and drop the game at UT. SO 8-4 at worse.
Folks, i just need to come to terms that CMS as much as I really like him , and appreciate the stability he has given our program is just not a great coach. He is solid, very very solid as a coach. No matter who is our O coordinator they are going to play Stoops ball, conservative, strong run and conservative passing with a stout defense and a 5-7 possession game. EVERY game due to this style is going to be lower scoring. Against a high flying team like Ole Miss or UT where they spread you out and chuck it I am all for that. Against a team like Vandy id like to see us speed it up abit. Offense wins games these days...
I know this is nothing alot of you all have not said and posted before but ive just now come to terms that Stoops needs to make this year his last year. I think this would allow him to go out the way he deserves , with most of the fans still with fondness of him. I dont see this thing getting better, and now think this could be a 5-7 team. I still think we beat the dirty birds and finish 6-6 but lets be honest this team has alot of talent and 6- is underperforming imo.
Nothing earth shattering here just a long term football fan concluding its time for Mark to go after this year... this aint gettin better..
