Give me the link to a statement made by someone with football coaching experience saying GC can't develop players or just admit u r running off at the mouth.

Your valid point is that GC is the biggist worry this team has for a yr that opens in a month? Not RBs of which we have no proven one. Not OL which struggled last yr? GC is your answer? Wow...

U can criticize anyone u have a want to. This board is full of those who can't do but want to criticize those who can do.

id say the coaches ability to develop the talent we have and put them in the position to succeed is my biggest concern... i think the talent is there at RB and OL, but will the be put in a position to have sucess...

How about one of Crowton's former players?

quote:

The first aspect of the program that needed to be changed after Crowton left was the off-season/winter training regiment. Under Crowton, the summer/winter work-outs were ineffective (to put it delicately.) It wasn’t that the training program wasn’t in place, there just wasn’t enough attention paid to the players’ development and progression. Players would lift if they wanted to, but if they didn’t have the internal desire to improve, there wasn’t anyone there to put on the pressure and make sure each player not only showed up, but showed improvement. During my first 2 years under the Crowton regime, I was never asked to set goals or obtain a certain level of conditioning. I worked out because that is what I was scheduled to do. I didn’t have a specific purpose to my workouts. Also, during the summertime, when physical development is the most important, attendance was extremely low and there wasn’t any accountability for missed workouts. All in all, there was a lack of responsibility to your teammates and coaches. Coach Mendenhall fixed this with player leadership after he was appointed HC.
