Who is this “freshmanin83?? He sure has some brass cojones. Dude has started two threads, not only about Wolfpack football, but also very positive threads. Not drawing a lot of comments tho. Come on folks, let’s generate some discussion here. What do you say. Can Dave Doeren go from cliff’s edge to sleeping giant before he’s played a single game?.
There are some pretty savvy observers here on SFN some of whom say Doeren should have been fired at the end of last season regardless of the outcome of the EweNC game. Some say the EweNC win saved his job.
I have to say that both points of view seem to be pretty misinformed. Maybe the W/L record ALONE is not a safe deciding factor. With no way of knowing this to be true or not, I think our AD quietly had conversations with the big donors and settled their upset and anger and convinced them that waiting until 2017 is the prudent route to take.
Sweet Jesus dude we get it, we really do. You like DD and think he is the best thing since sliced bread. Thats cool man, it really is. However there is nobody on this board or any where else that I see that is calling for his head. We all agree the smashing of UNC granted him another season. We all are in agreement here. The thing is, DD has coached himself into the proverbial corner. He has no good will left to spend in case a season goes south and in NC States case it happens quite a bit for some crazy reasons. #ncstate#### some may say. Both he and Yow have crowed that this year is the year. I think he has to hit 8 regular season wins or he is toast. Yow fired TOB after winning seven and I am not seeing much difference here. Because on paper we stand to lose a ton of players next year.
Dude I would love to come here and have to eat the crow and be totally wrong about Dave. Nobody really likes a regime change because it resets the clock per say. (Remember the 0-8 season?) But after 4 years of watching this knucklehead manage some crazy football games I am not too overly optimistic that he makes it out of this thing alive. I have watched a ton of football in my life and yes there always aberrations like Beamer etc who did get better, but for the most part a coach that has treaded water (I use that term loosely) for 4 seasons simply dont turn into some superstar later in their career.
