So assuming Joe is staying, who else gets fired?

[Hanmudog]

Obviously, Joey Jones has got to go and with a quickness. S&C coach most likely. Who else?

Do we bring in a real OC?

 

[Cooterpoot]

Breiner needs to go. OC should be a requirement to stay.

 

[karlchilders.sixpack]

Any, and Everybody

that signs a contract extension.

 

[Trojanbulldog19]

If he is back next year, he and Cohen both need to go

 

[bulldoghair]

This makes no since. Moorhead IS the OC. That’s supposedly why he was hired. Replacing all those positions does not fix the fundamental problems- Soft, unprepared, ect. We need a head coach.

 

[LandArchDawg]

If Joe stays, house needs to be cleaned, starting with S&C.

 

[messageboardsuperhero]

If he is back next year, he and Cohen both need to go

When we fire Moorhead next November, Cohen has to be right behind him.

 

[ckDOG]

Better question: who needs to stay, but will jump ship?

Joe’s shelf life is about 3 to 365 days. Nobody worth a damn is going to stick around or jump on board this ship.

Do us a solid, Rutgers.

I don't care who else is here, bring Chad Bumphis back to Starkvegas

 

[Rupert Jenkins]

I hear Jay Hopson is a good coach with a pretty decent program. Maybe you should consider being a mustard buzzard. Then you could have more freedom to hate on this program.

 

[paindonthurt_]

Just out of curiosity, was the defense “soft” last year?

 

[Rupert Jenkins]

I thought it was awesome last year. I will say I'm all for seeing something change with our offensive line. Maybe we need a better coach or maybe it's the guys. We need improvement there for sure. It affects everything when we miss blocks

 

[cheewgumm]

If I’m Joe I don’t change a thing and tell everyone to kick rocks if you don’t like it.

 

[Bullldawg78]

He basically did in the post game presser!

Obviously, Joey Jones has got to go and with a quickness. S&C coach most likely. Who else?

Do we bring in a real OC?

Jones for sure. An OC with real responsibility is a must. Wouldn’t it be something if JoMo could get Brady to make the move? That’s more fantasy football than reality but an example of the kind of shot in the arm that the program needs.

I think both Johnsons are expendable. Beginning with the Kentucky game last year there have been way too many pre-snap penalties with that group. And I don’t think the WR group improved much, if any. Speaking of that, I was in the grocery this morning and saw Osiris Mitchell’s picture on a milk carton. I hope they find him before the bowl trip.

I’m not sure about Marve either. The LB play this year wasn’t close to what MSU got a year ago from the same guys. I’m sure last year’s d-line play had something to do with that but how much of a roll did Lukabu play?

 

[Cooterpoot]

Mitchell was hurt and Johnson is a solid WR coach and recruiter

 

[olblue.sixpack]

Mitchell was hurt and Johnson is a solid WR coach and recruiter

Has Mitchell been hurt for weeks?

And I realize Johnson has a resume but I also know what I witnessed this season from his group.

 

[WilCoDawg]

Definitely fire the OC. (Sarcastrics not needed.)

 

[The Situation]

Have to send Breiner, Jones and the S&C coach packing. Those are the problem areas.

We don’t need to mess with the defense at all. They did their jobs.

 

[DawgsOnTheWing]

Over all, our tackling was not as crisp/physical as it should have been. There's work to be done defensively, too.

Disagree, I think that’s more on the S&C and just in general has been a problem all over the country for teams who don’t have incredible depth.

 

[DawgsOnTheWing]

I agree it's a byproduct of S&C, and that it is somewhat of a national epidemic. I'm basing it on how much of a decline it was for us from last year to this year.
