The biggest problem was just Marshall. Sticking to one pressure, three coverages, and one personnel group in every game against every opponent is not putting your guys in position to succeed.
Not defending anyone. Just wondering how this staff is any more stable than the staff McGhee dealt with. It was lamented at the time the revolving door he had to deal with at OC, much the same as right now. I'd just like someone to define consistent and solid. You talking head coach? OCs? Assistants? QB coach? I understand it was just a swipe at the Ash regime. Whatever, done arguing that. What do you think is more consistent now that McGhee would have benefited from? He was in a damn side better offensive system for his skill set than what we're running right now. Would the overall results been better then had the 2019 staff been in charge of those teams? Dunno, interesting discussion. Would the 2019 team won it all or been in at least the same position they were, if they'd had McGhee instead of Rovig under center? Dunno, interesting discussion.grizzh8r wrote: ↑Sat Feb 01, 2020 12:58 amAhh yes, KK is always so quick to jump to the defense of Ash. Simply put, Choate is a better head coach who by and large has consistently hired and developed top quality assistants and isn't afraid of changing things up when it becomes necessary to do so. He has his finger on the pulse of the program at all times and I don't think it's a stretch to say that he has the unwavering respect and trust of the entire program (staff and players). It's well known by now that at the end of his DM's senior season, the program was in turmoil.KittieKop wrote: ↑Fri Jan 31, 2020 8:42 pmMcGhee could have started at MSU the same time as Choate did and would have been in virtually the same situation.

Thanks!

You bring up good points. And I really don’t want to take sides here as I loved Ash. That said....KittieKop wrote: ↑Sat Feb 01, 2020 10:05 pmNot defending anyone.
