Oregon at tOSU, Sep 11th, Noon ET on Fox

Coombs is a Warriner/Beck level disaster as a coordinator.

It sucks, because I love his passion. Great recruiter. Excellent DB coach. Wretched coordinator. Last year was not an anomaly like so many of us hoped. Hopefully next year we have someone else. I don't see how we don't.

ALL of this. Could not possibly agree more.

I am not sure what everyone expects Coombs to do. I am not so sure with our inexperience we can play any other defense. We all knew the D was going to be a work in progress this year the the Offense was go to have to carry the D the first half of the season.

Fresno state with 2 star athletes was able to hold Oregon to fewer yards

Who cares about the recruits... this is a disaster.

If Day is the bad ass we thought he'd make Washington/Johnson the DC now.

This shouldn't be happening.
What on God’s green earth makes you think Al Washington shouldn’t be fired along with Coombs? At least Coombs can recruit DB’s. His scheme may suck but he’s at least contributed something to the program in the past. Wtf has Washington done? Coach up Tuf Borland? Made Baron Browning a star?

Football is a collaborative endeavor with lots of coaches and players and fans have a tendency to pick just one scapegoat on whom to blame all their problems. Like Buckeye Nation once did to Luke Fickell while ignoring the soft zone defense of Everett Withers. As if they just replace that one guy then it would solve all their problems. But it’s not that simple.
