No no no, don't mistake my post. I have absolutely NO IDEA what the amounts are. I just took a swing at guessing. How do you think 10m gets spent on 39 kids on average? Just spitballing. Its probably wrong to use stars as the reference for payment. Position group is probably more accurate.
It’s just a formula. No one is making a subjective judgment as part of the analysis. It really is just trash and detracts from the quality of the site. The best advice is to completely ignore it.
Couldn’t agree more, with every single word. The most damning things of all, to me, was 1. watching some of our players loaf at various points throughout the season(saw it in the first game against TCU, we saw it against UCF, we saw it against Clemson, then we saw it against Wake Forest and NC State) and 2. the stunning lack of discipline. Of all of the things that I expected we would or would not see out of a Bill Belichick coached team, it never even remotely once crossed my mind in the preseason that we would ever have to worry about effort, or that we would ever see a complete abandonment of basic fundamentals (we had drives with multiple substitution infractions) and maintaining composure (the drive killing or drive extending personal fouls).
He also would've had to rebuild the DL, LB and secondary via the portal since Echols, every DL but Beau, Leroy and Tyler Thompson, the two starting safeties from last yr and Huzzie all graduated.
Just in time to run for POTUS!
I hear ya, your guess is as good as any.
I think that has been their plan - Steve to take over.
personally don’t think it’s anything other than buying time for the grift
Yeah the offensive scheme (if you can even call it a scheme) was ridiculously bad, but in theory that’s something that you can change just by hiring an actual offensive coordinator.
Probably about the same, given that Mack was basically snoozing his way through games and seemed to have no fire in his belly to improve. OTOH, he was also making about half of what Belichick is, so we'd probably still have a similar record, but for a lot less money. So there's that, I guess.
If we hadn't fired Mack, I don't think he would have fared any better. The roster would probably have been even worse because the underwhelming results had eliminated his recruiting ability, and he completely lost the locker room with his post-JMU antics. He'd probably have had a ceiling of 4 wins with a very real possibility of a 2018 repeat.
Yep. I said yesterday or the day before, quite literally every single UNC Football coach in my lifetime of going on 3.5 decades now -including, and maybe even especially, John Bunting- would have had this team, against this schedule, in a bowl game at an absolute bare minimum. The fact that we did not even come remotely close to qualifying for a bowl game is an indictment on how much of an unmitigated disaster this year was. It’s actually hard to even truly quantify how bad it was.
In this world Max Johnson would've been medically retired by his 4th full game after Trevyeon Green matadors for the ntheenth time, so are you saying Gio and the OL somehow would've been a much better vs Cal, UVA, Wake, etc? Would our players have been faster under Mack? Please ensure you include the fact that half the team wasn't here til summer and that our top-2 centers missed the first month of the season.
