Is there a link to the rest of the article? This one ends abruptly with a statement about the schedule and that the Miami game could be a turning point. Shouldn't there be, like, more paragraphs and stuff with proof and supporting statements regarding the main theme?

I read that article and almost posted it here but couldn't quite convince myself it wasn't parody.

I love that the writer cites "the maturation of Armstrong's system" as if a defense that couldn't keep Arkansas (1-7 in the SEC... we're the 1) from scoring will get better simply because time is linear.

The system is proven. We saw some explosive plays down the stretch last year. Now we've got Roberts kind of leading the coaches and Armstrong is still running the meetings, alright. So there's something to be said of having that core group and then sort of making tweaks and fine tuning to get what you can out of the accountability whereas you have responsibility and ownership across the board - speaking of which Boardingham being on offense with Callaway having sat in on the defense before being co-offensive coordinator, it just makes to where you aren't having to build the system any more. It is built. They will come.

I think he has ghost-written several articles over the past few months. Makes sense why he needs a GM handling all of the day-to-day coaching activities.

It's very strange, it talks as if he hasn't been here for 2.5 years and then runs out of steam. I guess if you're clinging to hope with a coach who steadfastly refuses to change (or even really consider changing), you just pretend that he inherited these problems from his evil twin who had been posing as Billy Napier for the last 2 years. Weird stuff.

Oh for God's sake Taps, I now have the thought of there being 2 of him running around out in the world stuck in my brain. If I don't end up in the corner of my office in a fetal position by the end of the day it will be a miracle.

If I don't end up in the corner of my office in a fetal position by the end of the day it will be a miracle. "A Cajun Willie Taggart divided against himself cannot stand!" It’s the summer of CWT! So he was asked today how he will define a successful season (given the schedule, of course) and he basically said nothing. Something to the effect of take it one game at a time and see what happens. My opinion is any coach who doesn’t even mention a conference championship in his answer is a fraud who will never win enough games to reach that level. Could you imagine Spurrier being asked that question and bumbling through a bunch of nonsense while playing the victim of having a tough schedule? Regardless of the team he had, his expectation was to compete for an SEC championship every year. That is the difference in leadership style we should be focusing on, not this accountability approach bullshit.

Also, CWT has developed this new theme about how the game has “evolved and changed every 6 months.” What the shit is that all about? Does he not realize that he sounds like a complete moron. Even Bobby Bowden in his later years didn’t talk about having to adapt - as if it wasn’t a normal part of the job. This guy. I swear.
