tbux with his opinion:
so if you didn't have success as a HC it means you don't understand football? or maybe just not good at coaching? dont know all the reasons for his lack of success- I do know he is a well respected guy who knows more football than you, me or anyone on this forum. Or do you disagree?
I disagree with pretty much everything you've said (in this conversation) and I'll give you some reasons why:
1) Just because you can coach doesn't mean you are a good judge of talent.
2) Just because you have been a coach doesn't mean you know how to coach or are good at it.
3) When did you change the subject from being a bad judge of talent to "understand football"? You can't move the goal posts during the game bro.
4) We actually have former coaches who are members here at the ROD. Does that mean you don't know shit and should just listen and agree with everything they say?
5) As for being well respected, I respect you but it doesn't mean I agree with you or that you're right.
Venturi is old and IMO, hasn't kept up with the times. I will readily admit that he knows much more about football than I do but that doesn't mean I think he can spot talent better than I can. Apples and oranges bro. That doesn't mean he isn't right about Clowney but I prefer to listen to other sources when it comes to recognizing talent. Many of them here at the ROD.
