I agree. This isn't directed at Bling directly, so I don't want to anyone to think I'm taking shots are their opinion, but Petrino was a coach of preperation and focus. His game planning and scouting were more than outstanding, they were unbelievable. He utilized his teams strengths and exposed weakness in the opposition. This year we just did what we do. I think it's painfully obvious that we didn't prepare as well from opponent to opponent than we had in the past.
So far as the pot goes, if a player gets caught smoking, he should be suspended or heavily punished (depending on the coach and his method of discipline). You don't always have to suspend or boot a guy for doing something stupid. People are not all the same so I'm a firm believer in case by case treatment. I use it for the guys who work for me and it has served me well.
Honestly, I hope we get a new coach.....or K stays and dumps the entire staff and tells everyone to piss off, this is his team and that's that. Whoever takes the reigns (no pun intended) needs to put their stamp on the team and put the past where it belongs....in the trophy case. If K does stay, I'm not sure he can get the fans back on his side, but he'll have nothing to lose if he does what he has to. We are sort of rudderless right now, the program needs direction. Freddy
