He is a very good OC. He is not good at a lot of things it takes to be a good HC.
The best way to get the AD's attention is to do what was done during Derek Dooley's time at Tennessee that led to him being fired and that was the fans stay home and the stadium is about 1/3 full every game.I share everyone's frustration with CPJ, but they just extended him through 2022. By which time he will be 66 and ready to retire if he likes. In the meantime, I know it is cathartic to complain, but he isn't going anywhere no matter what anyone here says or does.
He was good at those things it takes to be a head coach for ~20 years. Have you ever considered that things just get stale?
Ummm... the lack of effort by our team and the poor play calling on both sides of the ball?So say we come back and win....then what do you piss and moan about?
11 more years?Maybe CPJ needs a new locker room? Indoor practice facility? Coaching lessons?
Way too early in the season for that. We could lose this and still win 7/8/9.

No he wasn't. He was just at a level where being good at one thing was enough. At this level it isn't, and he isn't as good at that one thing either.

Not likely with 3 out of the last 4 years losing seasons being highly possiblewe could lose all the remaining games too and still win 7/8 or 9 next year too
Well yea , but but but all he needs to do is get 10 to 20 4/5 star recruits, well maybe do that for two years and then win 7/8/9 year after next. We just gotta be patient (and then give him another contract extension)Not likely with 3 out of the last 4 years losing seasons being highly possible
When you are a one-dimensional team and that is not working, it is difficult to win. I want to think we are really just one great, 5-Star dual QB away from being a competitive team.
Me too......I normally just check in and get information and rarely post anything.... Ive been a CPJ supporter from day one, but this one did me in.... We've looked unprepared through the first 3 games...(Alcorn wasn't impressive either).... The defense will and should get a little better as the season goes, because we still have a tendency to be more passive than being aggressive and it will take a few games to get that out of us, but we just don't look inspired to play or coached well..(running a DE on a fake punt?) I'm still waiting on them to quit on PJ but that hasn't happened quite yet, but after the butt kicking we get next week might be the final straw.... I'll stand by the fact that PJ was an upgrade on CG simply because he won games that CG wouldn't have won even though their records will seem similar.... He's done about all he can do at Tech and he should be let go or should step down at the end of the year.. My thinking at the beginning of the year was 6-6, 7-5 because of the time it will take the defense to adjust to the new style, but we've already lost two games i thought we would win, so I think our win ceiling now is 4 with 5th being a win we steal somewhere.. So that's 3 out of 4 years without a chance at bowl game... That's just not good enough !It is just painful to watch this team. I have been a huge PJ supporter but he has to go. This is happening against a mediocre at best Pitt team and we look unprepared in EVERY aspect of the game.
