Your point is a good one. That said, coaches that have time to read forums have much bigger issues. I doubt there is a coach in America that has that kind of time. If so, they aren’t winning.
I agree, but while there's no chance Nick Saban or even Clay Hendrix is on the message boards, I wouldn't be surprised at all if it isn't a grad assistant's or quality control person's responsibility at most schools to find all the scuttlebutt out there on the opposition heading into the week, articles, message boards etc. I once heard that the SID at Rutgers used to have to have a stack of clips highlighted with important information on the desk of Greg Schiano by the time he walked in each morning. Not sure if that included message boards, but who knows.
All that said, if the UFFP is blamed for the reason why the Paladins lose on a Saturday, it's time to make some changes to the program.
I hope the last coaching staff read my post three years ago stating that I was deciphering their offensive playcall signals from my living room couch 250 miles away.
I probably should have written a letter.
YOU ARE SPOT ON JACKAL> after you wrote that I started watching for it and - with no real football knowledge - was able to pick up our playcalling from what you had written !! I was EMBARRASED for our program.. E M B A R R A S E D.
Maybe they SHOULD read the forums. LOL
That said, I understand Flags point - so I noted I only put those injuris on the forum
after they were said on the radio. So if CCH wanted them private he needs to speak with the radio guys like Marcus McMorris etc
... I only repeated what they announced. I will say I have always felt if coaches we are about to face can't figure out who played and didn't play from our prior (Elon) tape then, well, they aren't real bright..... If these other coaches are getting their info from here then let's just make up information
And I would love a PM - would be much appreicated. Several on here can attest that I don't divulge what is sent to me in a PM
