Don't know if this will be a weekly deal, but for SURE appropriate this time.
Just watched last nights after action presser w Mac, and he said EVERYTHING I wanted to and MORE. Watch it if you can.
In a weird way, maybe this one was necessary, just the way it played out...finding out all the signs he saw and called them out on starting MONDAY, turns out, tried to "address" but clearly couldn't fully get their attention and focus (to say the least--no WONDER he was so freaked and frustrated in his sideline display by the time even one of his stalwarts, Taylor, pulled a bushleague demo postplay...I guess he figured "let it fly-- Time tbey saw my dark side here"), so ceaselessly full of themselves after what Mac rightly called "just one opportunity" the week before in the opening tune-up (he was DEEPLY pissed, and now we know why, and what led UP to all that) ...Now, not only did they get to see and FEEL their own short sightedness, arrogance, and its consequences, they get a DEEP dose of reality, why and how right he was, and all without actually losing one.
He will have their attention, a chance to teach--and all without actually losing one they all KNEW they should a dominated. This team has had problems in its collective mind and soul for far too long (goes back years, to Meyer, really, overwhelming talent and #15 mostly obscuring it til Meyer lost focus, AND his good luck-and-judgment streak himself): Maybe, just maybe we've got a Head Coach finally who can and will fix all that.
OK, that's MY "take". Y'all's???
