Clancy has to go. oajr01 Junior Member Joined: Aug 24, 2017 Messages: 368 Likes Received: 235 Sep 14, 2019 #1 The bend don't break nonsense simply doesn't work. We allow each and every team to put too many points up on the board. It's pretty obvious to me, not sure how it couldn't be to anyone else. When's the last time we held a team to less than ten points? I hate the scheme.....the strategy.....we have the firepower, we don't seem to have the will at the coaching level. Fire Clancy. gubo&palanka, LoyalTrojan, Ventura Trojan and 7 others like this.

Bend-don’t-break....it just doesn’t help our offense get the balll back and keeps the opponent thinking they can win. It’s no wonder so many of our games go down to the wire. gubo&palanka, oajr01, Ventura Trojan and 1 other person like this.

Do we really have inside linebackers or confused special team members pretending to be Mike backers. They are not getting it done. Also saw Echols tapping himself out like he had a real reason to be tried. WTF! Soft play, blown coverages and lack of concentration= a lost opportunity. DEFENSIVE GRADE---D gubo&palanka, oajr01 and ConquerorSC like this.

Rector is not it, he is too inconsistent. But yes schematically the defense is a mess and they can't tackle. Clancy would be gone tomorrow if we had a capable replacement on staff. gubo&palanka, oajr01 and Gold Trojan like this.

I don’t see Clueless making it past ND at this point. Likely loss against Utah, likely loss at Udub and ND will dismantle SC. 2-4 start not out of the question. We all felt pretty good after last week’s win until we saw the halftime score of the UCF - Stanford game today. Reality set in and we witnessed the 2018 Trojans come back to life and struggle/lose against BYU - a BYU team that had a non-existent offense for the first 2 games of the season. Lord, please let this nightmare end soon... gubo&palanka, KiwiSCfan and Ventura Trojan like this.
