Coaching....Curly...Tepper and few other clowns did their part. BUT the biggest problem WAS NOT totally a lack of talent

As soon as I read an article where Tepper had stated it would take five years to fully implement his defense, I knew Dinardo would be in trouble. Five years to implement something for a sport where there's only four years to play is yelling "this is going to be a problem because it's gimmicky, not sound." The defense in 98 was just freaking pathetic. The offense was averaging around 30 points a game and Dinardo, in his blind loyalty to Tepper, blamed the offense for not scoring enough points when he was questioned about the OT 37-31 loss to Ole Miss.
