Chad Morris.

I knew he wouldn't be very good, but I didn't know he'd be worse than John L. Smith and Bret Bielema combined.

I kinda thought Charlie Strong would do better at Texas.

Chip came to UCLA randomly deciding he wanted to completely change his offense to something he literally never coached before

That's because you have a distorted view of the Big Ten.

I thought Bielema was a perfect fit for Arkansas.

No pun intended.

I saw what Drew Brees and Troy Smith did to the B1G, and this guy was a QB whisperer.

I thought Chip Kelly would be lighting it up at UCLA.

But he decided he doesn't want to install his Oregon system there, which I was expecting him to do. Instead he wants to run some other bullshite that is terrible.

He needs to put in that Oregon system and get some Cali speed and he'd win a lot of games in the Pac 12.

I think we're finding out how bad the roster was/is at Nebraska. They have such a low level of talent at key positions and the higher rated guys were clearly not as good as we thought.

I still think he turns them around, he just needs time.

Harbaugh at Michigan

Thought he would at least have a Big 10 Champ Game appearance by now

he couldnt and he cant, it requires the defense be on the field for 40 out of 60 minutes and they need to be fit fast and high energy not to fall flat and be run over.

equally the offense has to be high energy and all players must know the play book front to back so everyone is one the same page all the time.

it takes years of recruiting to build that and a team full of party boys and snowflakes smoking pot cant just be suddenly turned into a no huddle offense the entire game

that said, i too am surprised he hasnt installed at least a partial hurry up offense but it appears he is hell bent on not doing what he did in oregan. maybe he is trying to prove to himself he can still be a NFL coach and try to run an NFL offense now

I'm surprised by how Larry Fedora fell apart.

He took Southern Miss to 12-2, then UNC to 11-3. I thought he was a legit coach and program builder. Then, UNC spiraled to 3 and 2 win seasons and he got fired.

How is he a failure? That's just ridiculous.

I still think Chip will turn it around, but he's been very bad so far.
