For one...not from tv...for two...totally can see it from stands...for 3...Lapo is highly overated...4..Lapo is very stubborn and stuck in his ideals and rarely deviates...5..proven to be a non risk taker/safe coach and will use something to death even if not working..6...i break down film..analyze and prep recruits for combines/draft and development...7 i have and can get access to all 24 film from games...AND have taken such to camps and seminars in Cali where we use it for helping prospects have familiarity in the Canadian game in the chance they choose that route...
Fact of the matter..for all Lapo's pluses...he has many a wart...and have heard as such from many a player
Lapo had great success here, elsewhere and will continue to. Perfect no. I detect a bias.
I don't think anyone is thinking our success was the result of just Lapo as HC. We have had a very good team across the board for several seasons. We played to our strengths. At times it was predictable and lacked as many big strike plays we love.
OTOH our games were entertaining and often had high scoring results.
I've re-watched the Argo Aug 12th game about 3 times. Can't beat starting the game with a K/O return for a TD. Then a long punt return as well. At least two long TD passes to Adams and Demski.
Doesn't get much better than that game.
great post and I agree, lost of value in term of entertainment last season, awesome year, bright future.
