Not sure what you think my point is...it’s not that J’Mar shouldn’t sit a series. It’s not that there aren’t valid criticisms against him either. Our scheme does him no favors and our coaches refuse to modify the scheme or play anybody else. We can’t run and our OL can’t handle a defense that knows what our coach is going to do.
What’s the point? Our issues are complex.

If the issues are complex, you start making corrections with the low hanging fruit, and that is QB.
But, I don't agree they are that complex. Holtz has made simple things really hard, and a guy who has no business being a QB at this level, is clueless, and so things seem complex. But, it's not rocket science. Give Holtz & Smith one-way bus tickets to Bofunk, North Dakota, and put even an average OC in charge, and a halfway decent Division I QB in there, and bam! instant improvement. I guarantee it.
No, I just got to the point, and that is football. Surely you didn't take the post literally...there may be a Bofunk, North Dakota, but no busses go there. I was just speaking on the football aspects. It really is not complicated. I wasn't getting into the politics of this....I hate politics and try to avoid it all I can.
I suppose, if you take a complex topic and refuse to address the complex parts, what's left is simple.
"We just need to bench J'Mar!"
"And play one of the guys who couldn't beat him out?"
"We just need to fire Holtz!"
"You want TMac to hire his replacement?"
It's all more complicated than most of us make it out to be. This one's for free: refusing to acknowledge complexity doesn't make you a straight shooter, it makes you a bullshitter.
