Coach Ferebee is a great coach. He will get it turned around. The hire was high risk high reward. You are changing cultures, schemes, and mass coaches. Then you didn't hire who most thought was a no brainer and someone in the building like the prior hires.
Think we under estimated the scheme changes and their effect. Ferebee is too good of a coach and that staff too good technique wise for them to be down long. They will get killed this week then it gets better.
Butler has been running the same offense for decades now. They have modified its some based on personnel. Butler’s offense tends to scheme people open with the misdirection and shifting while the offense Ferebee had was predicated on his dawgs being more talented. I knew the offensive adjustment would be difficult.
Defense was awful week one and better week 2. Hope around week 6 things should come together.
To Blue and Gold’s point I think Butler is different because of the tradition of hiring from within since they opened in 1997 which helps with continuity. They haven’t had a losing season since 97. What they were doing was working.
I think you hire out if it’s Sam from WC (Butler alum) or if Knotts or Palmieri wanted the job. Outside of that just keep it in the family.
