'lack of cohesion' caused by not being on the same page? I cannot. Lack of cohesion due to personality conflicts, sure... and other possible reasons as well... but I can't imagine Fisher, or any other HC, not making sure his 'prep' was structured to make sure things were in sync.
VanRam's recall seems to make it sound like there were 'sects' of prep alienated from one another. - JamesJM
Well I agree more with you.
Here's what I saw last year (and this covers only one thread in the whole carpet).
A first time coordinator installed basically a new offense during a move. As a recipe, that sounds like mix gasoline and 4th of July sparklers and add a lit match.
It showed badly in the 1st 2 games when they were just miserably out of sync.
They did better over the next 3-4 games or so.
BUT if you do not have everything put solidly into the foundation in pre-season, there's only so much fixing you can do during the season.
As I said that;s just one strand. And that's even changing topics from the "what was with Gurley" strand. Which added up is just 2 of many strands.
If there was a lack of cohesion IMO it was between the players. Most of the coaches were the same and it's hard to imagine coaches getting that incoherent with one another.
