[QUOTE="billga99, post: 830154, member: 1618"] I don't think coaches losing the team should be the debate. But I do think playing with confidence (not over confident) is crucial. That means the players feel the coaches are calling the right schemes to make them successful. That allows you to play fast and loose and make the right plays. I think our biggest issue is the coaches take a long time to make play calls (particularly on defense) and I think the players in many cases are confused and hesitant. Bringing up (hesitantly) our previous regime, I think the offense completely trusted Johnson on play calls (whether they worked or not). But on defense and special teams under Johnson, the same didn't hold true. It takes significant money to hire strong head coaches AND coordinators which you need to put your teams consistently in the best position to win. The best programs have all 3 and don't hesitate to get rid of coaches that don't meet expectations. But you truly do need a big budget to pull that off. Without that, you do need to take a lot more chances on your hires. Maybe highly successful Group of 5 coaches who want to move up (of course that is what we have on staff now). [/QUOTE]
