He too advanced beyond his level of capability. There has to be a guide somewhere at the library or on the internet which profiles characteristics for a head coach. Actually, you can just use Tommie C as the litmus test. He too advanced beyond his level of capability in the pros. He was successful with the Giants to be sure but he made lots of mistakes on that level. Two Super Bowl wins may say that I am wrong. Whatever the truth, bring him in to sort out and "sweep up the mess".JBQhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09344181644293746758noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9512562.post-40105940699949068552016-10-26T15:49:54.701-04:002016-10-26T15:49:54.701-04:00Daz, "Ever to Excel" is our motto.

When I watched the radio show, Meter and Cronin started defending Addazio with Meter referring to us as "sitting in our boxers" posting criticism on social media. Not sure how they can criticize the direction of the program and not hold the coach accountable. I did not listen to the entire show so I'm curious if they asked him about the penalty that should have been declined. eaglebostonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17536194020385661646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9512562.post-1432805545223812422016-10-26T14:05:02.682-04:002016-10-26T14:05:02.682-04:00No sirNo sirdiabetic tacklehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07110903807341776373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9512562.post-88238465645811786112016-10-26T13:44:42.210-04:002016-10-26T13:44:42.210-04:00diabetic tackle:

Daz is 0-12 in your last 12 ACC games -- he is lucky he coaches in a media market that allows him to skate by with such a record for the most part.<br /><br />Not to mention - thefive is spot on that Daz has not sense of self critique and adjustment. Tough for players on this team to develop when the coach isnt developing himself.

His mere voice makes me cringe.<br /><br />why does he persist as the voice of the Eagles.... <br /><br /><br />He's gotta go too -- #firemeat #go.veggie.no.more.meat<br /><br />Daz is not much different than Spaz. Spaz did not like social media either.<br /><br />Here is something Daz could have said, buyt Spaz said in in 2012<br /><br />----------------------------------------<br />Boston College coach Frank Spaziani said he’s not worried about losing his job right now; he’s more concerned about beating Maryland on Saturday and earning the program’s first FBS and ACC win of the season.<br /><br />“Nobody sheds more blood, sweat and tears on Saturday than I do,” he said. “I know what our situation is, I know what I’m doing and I know problems we have to work through. That’s what I’m worried about. I’m worried about getting a victory on Saturday, to be honest with you.”<br /><br />BC has yet to win a conference game and is 1-6 overall, its lone win coming against Maine on Sept. 8. The Eagles have since lost five straight and have hit rock bottom -- or at least equaled it -- under Spaziani. The Eagles won three of their last five games in 2011 after a similar 1-6 start, but that’s going to be a tall task this year with road trips to Wake Forest and NC State, and Notre Dame and Virginia Tech still on the schedule.<br /><br />“I see a lot of positive things going on,” Spaziani said. “Now, what’s going to happen in the remainder of the games? That’s why we play them, but the players are working hard. We’ve got good coaches. We’ll see what happens.”<br /><br />“I think as a head coach you understand exactly what the problems are and you’re trying to manage your way through,” he said. “I think anybody that looked at our roster or has looked at it over the last four years and takes a look at it would understand the challenges we had. We haven’t been able to manage our way through that. ... We just haven’t done a very good job of it, to be honest with you.”mod34bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18129365485893573618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9512562.post-83411349025645689312016-10-26T12:14:56.771-04:002016-10-26T12:14:56.771-04:00In the four years he's been at BC, there has n...In the four years he's been at BC, there has not been one shred of evidence that Addazio has engaged in a critical self assessment and made changes as a result. He has never managed a game well -- and that's something that should be incredibly easy to fix. But he hasn't.<br /><br />I wouldn't mind Addazio's thin skin in public were he actually taking steps toward fixing the issues that plague his approach. But I do mind it a great deal when one season after the next features the same recurring problems. For example, our HC's background is in offense, and specifically the OL -- how is it that we have an O that cannot score and an OL that cannot block for 2 straight years?<br /><br />Mostly, though, his excuses are laughable because the slights he perceives are so minimal. The HC at BC receives less media and quasi-media (e.g., reported blog) attention than just about any P5 school. Were his meltdown on 12 straight conference losses happening in Ann Arbor, Gainesville, South Bend ... or, hell, even Starkville, Chapel Hill, or Lexington ... he would be subject to critical news articles and columns on a daily basis. Here, there might be a negative blurb stuck in a rambling Shaughnessy column once per month.<br /><br />He's making $2.5M, living in suburban Boston with a mortgage covered by the school, inhabiting the most prominent job at the university ... and wants to be accountable to nobody. That's no more reasonable of an expectation than is his weekly hope to win by 3 points by running 70 percent of the time. It's laughable. He asks for more accountability from his unpaid players than he permits to be asked of him. That tells you all you need to know about Steve Addazio.TheFivehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04915265564962871007noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9512562.post-37786834941788880602016-10-26T11:50:45.552-04:002016-10-26T11:50:45.552-04:00Amen - good post. most importanty, this guy needs...Amen - good post. most importanty, this guy needs to go.
