Does anyone else think that maybe coach is slow minded?

I don't mean like Forrest Gump like mentally retarded or As an insult.

I'm talking about just the way he talks. And when you see him and you've seen people like this before they're kind of just slower than those people around them.

When I see him or hear him speak I think country bumpkin.

Not dumb but I believe he overthinks things to his detriment. Why else does it take so long to get plays called? Why has he been so slow in the portal?

No real fan would say anything like that about a Gators coach.

This should be deleted and you should be kicked off here.
Wait a second. I don't think you get my meaning. I'm not saying he has a mental issue. I think he is just slow minded. He isn't quick on his feet like most good or great coaches.

I look around and seeing coaches being hired all the time and we have needed 2 coaches for how long now?

We have only offered like 5 portal players. We need to bring in more than that so we need to be offering a hell of a lot more.

Being "fast" minded isn't necessarily a good thing either. When you react impulsively you are prone to lots of mistakes and when you are leading that many people you can't be jumping all over the place. You have to be consistent.

No one on this board is qualified to judge play calling. He's made some great calls too. The problem is no one running an organization of this magnitude has time in the day to call plays. It's a takeaway from all other aspects of coaching.

I get what you are saying.

What I'm saying is that it is wrong to put our coach in this light.
