[QUOTE="lv20gt, post: 434431, member: 2299"] In the last 6 years, Paul Johnson is 25-23 in conference. In Gailey's 6 years here, Chan Gailey was 28-20 in conference. Ignore those facts. In fact, Johnson has a worse conference winning % than Gailey overall. Hiring Johnson was a great move in 2008. Unfortunately the ACC adapted, evolved, and improved. Johnson refuses to do so. When Johnson was hired we heard opposing fans and pundits make claims about how the offense would hurt the defense, and we waved it off. But 10 years in and it looks like they were spot on. Except now we have desperate fans clinging to any scrap of hope that it isn't true. We have fans blaming weather, resources, and acting like we can't compete with factories on offense despite that being a huge argument for . But surely, now that we have the resources, our 4th DC is the answer. Of course went and opened up the checkbook, and attracted a high profile DC that has experience against ACC competition. But, that didn't happen. We got Woody at the same price we got Roof, and he has no experience in either the ACC or even the P5. We have a program completely defined by our offense yet we have an offense that can't win shootouts. We are 1-13 in the last 3 years in games where the other team scores more than 28 and that one game the opposing team only scored over 28 because of turnovers by our offense. Even going back further, the past 6 years we are 4-25 in such games. To put that in perspective in 2009 alone we were 4-2 in such games. In the same time period, 6 years, we've lost 10 games in which the opposing team has scored less than 28. So to recap, we have a a program entirely built around our offensive system, but that system can no longer be relied on to win shootouts, and even when it's not a shootout doesn't guarantee a victory anyways. So if we are going to have an offense that absolutely needs a defense who can hold teams to under 28 every game, then why are we running an offense that has such a negative effect on the defense? Johnson should have a raging fire under his seat. Instead he has an AD making excuses for him and a fanbase eating that up. I swear he is going to have to gregory this program before some of y'all open your eyes. [/QUOTE]
