Our coaches are clueless, arrogant, and boring.
When we were 1-10, at least we knew Brad Scott would be fired. That 0-11 team was competitive and improved each week, and we had Holtz at the helm so things were looking up.
We are stuck with this awful coach who cannot develop QBs. Jake Bentley played every meaningful snap (except Mizzu) for 3 years. At no time did another QB get a chance to play and develop, even when games were out of hand (Belk Bowl- alarm bells were going off over this). We'll be in the exact same situation next year. If 3 gets hurt (and he probably will because no matter how hobbled he is- Muschamp will send him out) we'll have no QB with any experience. Muschamp did the same thing at UF- trotted Driskel out there over and over- no mater how bad he played. And he was bad. You have to develop the roster, especially QBs. UNLESS- you're winning and every game is close.
We can't afford to fire him because our stupid amateur AD provided him a buyout going into year 4. No professional AD would have done this. Year 4, your honeymoon is over- the results should be there- or not. But Tanner just handed him another honeymoon. Maybe some teams were calling but if that is true- negotiate from there. Inexcusable.
This staff cannot manage a big time NCAA program. They just can't. I do expect changes but probably too little too late. I don't expect gamecock football to even have a chance to be relevant again until 2022.
I feel the most bad for the kids. They played harder than the staff deserved. It must be awful for them.
All that said, I'll be back next year to cheer for them (the kids) because I am a Gamecock and I always will be a Gamecock; and so are these kids. Muschamp will eventually be gone but the Gamecocks will be here forever. Any kid that shows up in the garnet and black will have my support, always and forever.
