I think Huard is fed up with Herm and the offensive coaching staff

[Hammock Parties]

BigRedChief's reports have never been wrong before, so I agree that maybe Huard did just up and quit this last Sunday and because of that, is truly in Herm's doghouse. Huard's last throw was that interception, which bounced off Devard Darling. Huard looked disgusted after Darling ****ed that play up.

Of course, the situation - third and long - was created because Herm's wonderful offensive coaching staff dialed up a run up the middle on first down and a pussy middle screen call on 2nd and 7.

Throw in the fact that they were sending Hagans in and out of the game - I'm sure Huard was disgusted with that, too - and it's not hard to see why Huard has had enough.

If you remember, last year Huard was pissed off at the offensive coaching staff, too. I believe it's been publicized that he's not a big fan of Dick Curl. He was much more comfortable with Terry Shea.

Basically last year Huard put up with a terrible offensive coaching staff that had no clue, and got beat the hell up all year long, for basically nothing. Now it's happening again, and he isn't about to put his body on the line for another shit team that has no clue what they're doing on offense if he doesn't have to.

And so he ends up in Herm's doghouse. But can you really blame Huard?

That's my theory anyway. We'll see if Huard gives a shit if he gets back onto the field the rest of the season.

EDIT - Oh, and one other thing. Larry Johnson is the other guy who raised a fuss last year. He's already started this year and I wouldn't be surprised to see it escalate. Will he end up in the doghouse?

I kind of worried about that at first, Mr. whoman69. But then I realized that these guys knew they were fighting an uphill battle this year. I don't think the losses (in and of themselves) cause a problem. It's the bizarre tactical approach to the offense that they're going to give up on. Most of these kids have played on some very good college teams and have spent their time on the field competing at a high level. When they see Herm call for the sloption or the fifteenth run up the gut for no gain in a row, they have to know he's either desperate or stupid.

Too much of that and Herm will lose their confidence, I think.

I doubt Huard is fed up with Herm. He has made quite a living carrying a clip board on the sidelines. After playing 2-3 quarters of football, he realized this OL might jeapardize his health to the point that he won't be able to get a few more years of clip-board carrying in.

Well put there. He is a career backup for a reason because he just isn't very good.
