[QUOTE="Lee, post: 645757, member: 786"] It’s like y’all can’t read once you see that. Something in all of your brains turns off and you can’t think outside of that one sentence. The VERY NEXT LINE SAID IT WAS INEXCUSABLE!!! Bringing it up continuously does no good. It happened. It was terrible. It was also ONE game. I agree we looked undisciplined in that game, but if you’ve paid attention to the rest if the season, we are not a highly penalized team. So which one better illustrates our team? One crappy game against a bad team? Or the rest of the season? Also, we had 6 penalties for 50 yards against GW versus 8 for 80 against Citadel. Not the same, but in the same ballpark. The rest of the post clearly lays out why I believe even as poorly as we played on offense against the Citadel, if we had the 2008 defense we would’ve won. If the 2008 team had the 2019 defense, they would have lost. Simple as that. If Paul had lost that game I would’ve been pissed like everyone else. It wouldn’t have changed how good of a coach he was though. Same can be said for CGC. Our offense in the GW game put up 199 yards and 10 points. Take the screen pass where Dwyer was just better than everyone in the field and we put up 120 yards and 3 points. That’s in the whole game, not a quarter or a half. In the Citadel game we had 301 yards if total O and 24 points. 183 yards on the ground. So what was the difference? One team was loaded with NFL talent at key spots. The other devoid of NFL talent save potentially a few skill guys. 2008 defense: 227 yards given up and one forced turnover. Fairly even TOP. This is with the offense turning the ball over 3 times. 2019 defense: 350 yards and one forced turnover. Our offense didn’t turn the ball over, but the defense couldn’t get off the field. None of what I posted excuses the loss. The reason I said to to bring it up is because one game doesn’t define a coach. Paul easily could’ve lost that game and still would’ve been a great coach for us. So if you want to continue to walk around believing that this wouldn’t/couldn’t happen to a good coach, that’s fine. The rest of us will be disappointed in the loss, but enjoy watching the team progress and make strides towards becoming an all around team. We also understand it will take time and are willing to experience some pain now for where we feel we are headed. Delayed gratification. [/QUOTE]
