IMO, the leash should be short with Lou. He was awful the first 2 years. We dumped a ton of money into the defense. After the last 2 games, our season ranks in total defense and points are mediocre at best.
So to me it's inexcusable. We need better.

Freaking bravo. This is also how I generally look at it. If only everyone could overlook the emotional "hot take" posts and handle them a little better, this board would be a MUCH better place.
Instead, I think a lot of people care way too much about scoring "I'm right" cool points on the board by taking obvious emotion-fueled hyperbole at face value, just to score easy "wins".
Then you also have other people who would rather just take out their frustrations with the losing on other posters rather than the team itself.
I'm not saying emotion-fueled hot takes are the way to go, I'm just saying that all this moral grandstanding about the boards being toxic with negativity is complete BS. The so-called positive posters are contributing just as much themselves.
Yall aren't being positive. You're just matching negativity with more negativity. THAT is how you create a toxic atmosphere.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
