Doug doesn't put his players in the best position to win. Period.
 
1st and goal from the 2 last week...instead of giving it to AAM or Smith he is in a shot-gun for 2 plays. Wasted plays! Pound it up there 4 times, with either of those 2 its a TD.[I] (blame Hacket all day but Doug is the HEAD COACH, he has VETO power on this kind of stuff, that's on Doug.)[/I] That is just 1 example from last weeks game. I can list a laundry list of others. LAST years Rutgers game, SU has the lead and Rutgers on 4th and long is punting from their endzone, instead of just putting on a return and taking the ball at around the 50 and maintaining control of the game and the lead, he goes for a punt block, roughs the kicker, 1st down. Rutgers scores and goes onto win the game. The game was in hand, Doug's poor coaching turned it around and gave Rutgers life when they were dead. Seriously, I could sit here all day listing this type of stuff. This isn't complicated stuff, this is basic football coaching stuff and Doug screws it up all the time!
 
I am sure he is a nice man, he may even be a good college coordinator, he just isn't a head coach.
