Monken has said in interviews that he spent a few years considering the move, and would have moved a year ago had the new cut block rule been put in place before he started spring ball. Monken is the best coach we have had in modern times, in my opinion.
So, yeah, after 6 friggin weeks, playing our hardest schedule perhaps in Army modern history, it definitely makes sense to scrap it all.
Give it a year or two? Heck no
Give our players a full season to develop and run it? no way.
Just scrap it all, and lets return to the offense that had us gain SEVENTY EIGHT YARDS on 35 carries versus Air Force. Lets return to the offense that had us run 48 (!!!!!) times for 125 yards versus Navy (and in regulation, it was 44 runs for 97 yard)s.
We ran 44 times for 97 yards in regulation last year versus navy, and now you want to switch back to the same offense after 6 games. Incredible.
i agree

there have been times where our offense has looked bad this year
there have been times this year where it has looked incredible
its a totally new sytem and qb with a tough schedule, and new coordinator
i think we are better than our record indicates....we cut out the dumb fumbles and we have two more wins than we do now
maybe its time we move on from Viti if that is the biggest issue the past couple of years? P&D makes some good points about his pedigree and experience

You guys ever think that Army is just not that talented? I mean we have some decent players but, overall, we do not have an FBS squad, year in and year out?
I think that, given the constraints of a SA, it is likely that our talent, on average, is below average for FBS. We are supposed to make up for that gap with discipline, teamwork, smarts, and effort. This year, turnovers have been an absolute killer.
