Assistant Coaching Evaluation

[jacket_fan]

The question was asked previously as to whether we have seen good coaching. I think that is a legitimate question. What are some examples of what folks consider good coaching this year.

I'll start out with Coach Coleman and Coach Knight have done a good job considering the injuries and departures.

I'd put coach Choice on there too.

If the gauge of "good coaching" is year-over-year on-field improvement, then Key and Dixon coached well also. Our OL and WR were unquestionably better than last year. Maybe Thacker and the LB's too, given what we saw from Curry toward the end of this season.

The challenge is that the bar for 2019 was so low based on how coaching translated to on-field performance. If this becomes a conversation around what degree of improvement was sufficient, then I predict this thread turns into a subjective discussion.

We improved as a team overall, imo. That is a good thing.

I tend to agree. If you look past the records, we were in all but three games (ND,Clemson,BC) iirc in the 4th quarter within 1 score. I think this team is better overall than they were last year at this time. It's confounded by a whole lot of other noise and things that didn't pass the eyeball test but this is what I base my final decision on.

I think it is highly unlikely of any changes in the coaching staff. Our salary structure for coordinators and assistants is way down the list in Power 5. You need money to play with the big boys in both recruiting and coaches. The hope is our D Coordinator improves with on the job training and Collins background. On offense, we have improved on the ground but still struggled in passing due to protection and scheme

doesn't matter what I think or any of Y'all the only one the matters what he thinks is CGC

Not possible to evaluate after two years, one of which was covid shortened.

It’s hard to give anyone a good grade after 3 wins.

A 35 yr. Old DC with 4 yrs experience in a power 5 conference. Let's keep it real. High school coaches are older and more experienced.

 

[GTFLETCH]

Coach Key, Coleman, Choice.... The rest probably need to be on the hot seat, however I think CGC is to nice

 

[Jacketman99]

I think it's too early to have any assistant on the hot seat especially since at most positions your most talented guys are freshmen.

I'm so tired of stupid fans. My Christmas wish is that certain GT fans get smarter about how football teams actually work.

 

[GTflyer0116]

I would argue that our special teams coordinator/assistants need to be reviewed.

 

[CuseJacket]

Also

I love it when our guys get awards named for our guys. Hope he wins.

The FG coach is certainly questionable in his abilities.

I dunno that we really have one. Wiesehan is offensive special teams coach and TE coach.

I heard we getting the Gus bus for OC and muschamp at DC. One can dream right?! I'm kidding of course but just imagine that!
