Changes Need to be Made

[TXPoke]

Gundy is one that does things behind the scenes especially when it involves negative things with coaches or players. Doesn't mean things are not happening just because he is not talking about them in public.

That’s a great approach to have because of the external optics. However, he’s been slow on the trigger and IMO giving people too much rope without results. And that just leads to fans getting disgruntled and of the opinion he is complacent.

And honestly he’s made some questionable comments about his mindset on results. “Being in the game” or praising the process is not enough at this point. This is a results oriented industry, and the results this season aren’t there. And they’ve honestly come up too short in some of our more successful seasons since 2011. With the talent we’ve had, 1 championship in 13 years doesn’t cut it.

Does Gundy sound like he drugged at his presser? He can't remember events, disavows any responsibility, calls fans weak when he gets challenged, refers to players by number instead of name. Just very, very odd.

Robert Allen is a stooge for Gundy. He always throws softball questions to him at the presser.

This is EXACTLY the same sh!t that has been going on for 15+ years. How many former players do you see tweeting support for him? How many players do you see come back? When’s the last time Zach or Dez or Perrish Cox or Okung or Pettigrew or Dantrell or Peterson or any other NFL guy has come back?? They don’t. He has ZERO relationships with former players. He doesn’t know how to connect. He’s just like John Smith. Times have passed him by it’s time for a change!!

You obviously have program connections. You cannot tell me his players have been bought in this year. Been evident since the first game and piss poor OL blocking that was rolled out there game 1. Players aren’t dumb. They can read the writing on the wall and his senior favoritism at their expense. Players are not happy they just want their money and to be gone.

Guess you just don’t pay attention much because many former players have come back including ones that spent time in the NFL.

OL is a different issue that I will say you are not incorrect there.

They appreciate Stillwater where many met their wives and some even started families.

The old axiom is ‘you’re either coaching it to happen, or you’re allowing it to.’

Don’t care how he approaches it, it needs to change drastically.

Yea and it’s dumb because while he is trying to buy his bad coordinators time. A lot of the good up and coming coaches are locking in new deals leaving us high and dry

And in 2014 we had arguably our 2nd best offensive weapon ever based on NFL results.

I still wonder how awesome our running attack would have been that year if JW could have stayed healthy. That game plan against the defending champs in game 1 was pretty cool.

Yeah.

I think about that as well. Getting Hill in space.

Thats a real what might have been.

does Maealiuaki Smith start Saturday?!

Start, probably not since its senior day for Bowman. Hoping he gets in early and runs things from their though.

 

[ashpkt]

does Maealiuaki Smith start Saturday?!

Nope. Starters are all AARP members

 

[Outlaw from Lawton]

I don’t think Gundy is going anywhere. So, who are your candidates for OC and DC? They obviously need to be changed.

if he goes nowhere then there is a 35% we wont reach a bowl for at least 2 years although we have other qbs that are coaching isnt Ronnie Williams and Tony Lindsay still coaching ?

Stop with the JW talk, he was not great

 

[Osucowboy79]

Negative. His senior year he had 26 total TDs and one Int. Dude was a stud.
