All disasters today and thus far this season.
Can he fix it? Will he even try? Complacency seems to start at the top with our program these days.
No, I don't think Shaw can fix this, because he's been the cause of so much of it. He's made every long-term coaching mistake you can make. he hasn't changed with the times. His recruiting has gotten worse, not better. Stupid mistakes. Avalanches of injuries. Poor discipline. Russian doll-hiring of assistant coaches. You name it. Today's disaster is totally and completely on the Bradford M. Freeman Director of Football, one Mr. David Shaw. The wreckage is everywhere you look. This year, the chickens have come home to roost.
As I just asked in another thread on this topic, "would Harbaugh have allowed this to happen?" The point isn't that we need an elite coaching talent like Harbaugh. But, we do need someone who is aggressive, has balls and has his eyes on the prize.
