What a snappy comeback. You are brilliant we should just skip next season tell us now whats going to happen save us those Saturdays.
7:50 am. It’s 14 degrees. It’s soooooo cold...... I just saw Bart Starr doing a qb sneak in my driveway . HAYOHHHHhhhhh!
A lot of people at Clemson felt poor coaching hire decisions were being made, and it took Dabo 4-5 years to finally prove them wrong. He was quite average, maybe above average, then turned the corner. I'll try to stay positive and give Oeaux a chance. If he sucks, and we don't cut the mustard in 2-4 years, he'll be replaced (and hopefully Alleva would go first). Personally, I applied to numerous top notch medical schools, and didn't even get looked at. Didn't have comparable qualifications to be considered. I had some personal connections to Tulane and was able to at least get an interview. Once I got a foot in the door, I was able to convince them I could excel at a top school. They got to know me, believed in me, and gave me a chance. 20+ years later, I've had a very successful career, caring for tens of thousands of patients, and had a 7 year fulfilling military stint, too. None of that would have been possible if they didn't interview me, listen, get to know me, and give me a chance. I've become a considerable booster to them for that chance. Sometimes you need inner connections to just get that opportunity. No reason for anyone else to look at, or offer, Oeaux (or Ensminger), but that doesn't mean he won't succeed. Some people just need an opportunity and a platform to succeed (variables may not have flowed right for him at Ole Piss). Hopefully, it falls into place for him now that he is getting more autonomy to call the shots the way he wants too. Same applies to Ensminger. He may be a diamond in the rough that only someone like Oeaux can recognize. The variables for success just may not have been in place for E at his prior OC stops, then he got complacent and just wanted stability (family needs/stresses/demands can do that). Even Lou Tepper is succeeding at Buffalo Bills right now. Based on his LSU stint, who would have thought he would still be coaching, much less becoming a DC of a playoff NFL team? I understand all of the negative talk about our coaches, but successful people quell the background noise, believe in themselves and push on. Patience and positivity breeds success. I'll wait for results before pushing the panic button.
