Honesty and Trustworthiness. Score: F. Mr. Daz is prone to exaggeration and embellishment to the point of dishonesty. Mr. Daz is untrustworthy and not believable.<br /><br />5. Brand Loyalty: Score: F. Mr Daz cannot field a football product that can meaningfully compete in its own league. Further efforts by Mr Daz are likely to further tarnish brand and erode any remaining brand loyalty.mod34bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18129365485893573618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9512562.post-52940393303280858592017-01-06T14:04:03.864-05:002017-01-06T14:04:03.864-05:00The attendance alone is a pretty good indictment o...The attendance alone is a pretty good indictment of Bates-Addazio.Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16370373135189857562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9512562.post-69986707361745671782017-01-06T14:03:15.176-05:002017-01-06T14:03:15.176-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16370373135189857562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9512562.post-36943373659956495812017-01-06T13:35:36.490-05:002017-01-06T13:35:36.490-05:00Guide- my annual review of Daz.

Daz will need to show progression of at least 7-5 to keep job since new AD will be itching to make own hire. Daz himself has claimed that things are improving so if he doesn't deliver a better season it is time to move on. Basketball is a bigger project and Christian has not had as much time as Daz to turn things around. This season is showing some signs of life and a few more good recruits could make a big difference so new AD might give more rope to Christian but he too will be on a short leash. This is the benefit of bringing in a new AD. Bates is somewhat beholden to his selections....new AD is not. <br /><br />New AD will have challenges beyond coaching in terms of developing a winning culture, turning around student apathy towards BC sports (other than hockey), restoring Alumni confidence and giving, increasing BOT/Leahy support for BC athletics and cultivating some Boston area fan support in a pro sports town. <br /><br />STL_eaglehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02686883958825890231noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9512562.post-175710743611247492017-01-06T10:17:55.749-05:002017-01-06T10:17:55.749-05:00chill??

No, contrary to your all knowingness I am not satisfied with a six win season and a crappy bowl win but yes I will take that over a 3-9 record any day. Given your extensive sporting background you should understand PP is a position coach, not the head coach. The knowledge and experience he brought to the defensive line this year is undeniable, just ask any of the players who played under him. Did they always perform to your standards and expectations? Of course not, but looking at each individual player and what they learned from him this year are they a better unit and more prepared to take the next step next year? I would say yes and I challenge you to actually get some feedback from the guys who played under him. I know that doesn't matter to you and it's all about wins and losses but at the end of the day the POSITION coach can only do so much as there are 6-7 other players out on the field at the same time playing within a scheme that he is not calling. The position coach coaches his players and prepares him as best that he can to go out and to their job and then it's up to them to go do their job within the framework of a TEAM. Is the defensive line not doing their job when the DB's get consistently beat deep? Should they get a sack on every pass play to earn your approval? Remember football is a team sport....Have a great day!

The 7 win marker would be nice but I think the powers that be are perfectly satisfied with a 6 win season and going to any bowl, at least at this point in time. It would be nice to know what their vision of success is for the football program...maybe that changes with a new AD. Speaking of a new AD what is the deal? Is Bates in or out?

That said, my sense is that if Daz does not win at least 7 games he is out. If Daz surprises us with a strong performance next year he will likely stick around. Although I am no fan of Daz I would rather root for the Eagles' success than hope for Daz's failure.

Your logic is blinding me! Got it...win or go home!! Guido...yes there is plenty to question about Addazio and his performance, decision making and coaching acumen no doubt. We could go on and on about the past couple years and the complete failure at times the program has been. I feel like there has been some positives though and something to build on ending this season. Whether we can build on that and compete with the big boys next year I don't know, I can only hope and pray! I like to think positive and believe no matter how shitty things are! Go BC!

Suckiness. <br /><br />If the players like PP. great. But I don't really care so much for what they say as I do as to what they do as a team. That is all that matters Watch what they do not what they say. Pp boys could not compete against winning ACC teams that is a big big bad. Sad they can't compete <br /><br />keep the focus on results.
