The Bodine Witch Hunt

To me it's irresponsible not to foster better competition and improve your depth.  I know I'm reading into whether they didn't bring someone in because it might threaten Bodine, but I don't see any other logical reason why they did not apparently try.   If Westerman is that guy then great.   But if it's going to take him a year or more to get up to speed with the position I would say he is NOT that guy.

As far as Alexander's rant, I don't think it was just the Westerman question but the constant question by fans and the media as to whether Bodine is competent.   But he did not need to get snide about it and throw his best O Lineman under the bus.  It's not like Whit has been questioning Bodine publicly.

Well said.  It comes down to this...Are you willing to let one position stand between you and a SB?  The running game goes nowhere because the NT lives in the backfield.  You don't even need to be a coach to see that.
