[QUOTE="Lee, post: 194912, member: 786"] First of all, don't worry about feeling like you are picking on me. I have no problem having a civil discussion with someone that has a different opinion than mine. I actually enjoy it, especially when there are thoughtful responses exchanged. With that being said, I feel like your post basically just paraphrases something I said earlier: Of course coaching is easier when everything goes right. That typically doesn't happen. We may never see another year like last year in term of guys not getting hurt, especially at extremely thin spots (DT). The great ones overcome adversity and get it done. I'm not saying I think we should be 9-2 right now or that Paul Johnson isn't a great coach. Overcoming adversity can be looked many different ways as can this season. You see the fact that we have been in a lot of games as a positive sign. I see the fact that we have not been able to win the close games that I feel we should have as a negative. Duke, UNC, UVA and VT had no business beating us. At the very least, we should have split those games. I'm not saying this based on records or "prestige," I'm saying this based on watching the games and how they played out. I could throw Pitt in there too, but that game was actually one of the cleaner games we played offensively. I'll leave it out since we are talking specifically about PJ's coaching (I know he runs the whole team and the D falls on him too, but he is known for his offense). If we had won half of those games, we'd have a shot at playing in a bowl game with a win over the dwags tomorrow (which is doable IMO). I also want to reiterate that I don't think he did a terrible job this year either. He was dealt a pretty bad hand in terms of injuries and schedule, but I'm sure the most frustrating thing for him had to be the lack of execution by the experienced offensive line. I think he did an okay job, just not good. I don't think he should be fired, but I also don't think he should be commended for winning only 3 games to this point. Here's to hoping it's 4 by tomorrow around 3:30. I will be as happy as anyone if we pull that off. [/QUOTE]
