I'm sure that (bolded) is some alien language from somewhere in another solar system. Gruden is probably the only coach who doesn't understand half-time adjustments.

turtle28 Posted January 8, 2019 Author Share Posted January 8, 2019 Cooley would disagree, but I guess a bunch of fans on a fan forum know more than an ex-player who’s very knowledgeable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naptownskinsfan Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 Then whatever changes he does make, he is being out-coached by the opposition and their changes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What was his exact quote? Because you've argued quite a bit that Cooley has said that halftime is not enough time for coaches to make changes and relay to the team. So which is it? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the youth of Alabama's secondary is really being exposed here. Most of these guys are first year starters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of these guys are first year starters. And their experience and depth up front. They lost their top six corners, so yeah, I definitely agree there. I also think Tu'a is still hurt from the high ankle sprain- those usually take 4-8 weeks to heal, and it's on his plant foot, which makes it worse.

If Cooley said that, then I don't know what to say about him. At that point, it's clearly defending the village idiot because they are both employed by the same company.

At that point, it's clearly defending the village idiot because they are both employed by the same company. I don't think he's being accurately quoted here. I think he had said that there wasn't time to collect the team and then present it at halftime because many of the players were getting treatment, etc... That is NOT the same thing as saying that coaches don't have time to make adjustments. They do it all the time. As for him saying Jay makes adjustments. I don't think that was a blanket statement for every game. Because I know in quite a few of his breakdowns he has taken the coaching staff to task for not making adjustments. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thaiphoon Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 LOL...announcers talking about how this is the first time a team has gone 15-0. NDSU did it twice already. Man the FBS bias is strong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And of course that's what they were talking about, they're covering the FBS championship, not the minor league championship. Look, I love the FCS - I have cousins who went to Mount Union in Ohio - but let's me clear here, the only people who care about FCS football are those who went to those schools, that live in those small towns or scouts who are scouting their talent for the NFL.

There isn't enough time in the world for the ladies he's going to get. But I'll be damned if he shouldn't at least try. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
