      Makes me wonder if Harding packed it in after being demoted.

        That was so he could save face. He was definitely demoted.

          Let me give you something that will help you become a Head Coach somewhere else. Demoted??

            I know that is what it looks like, but this is commonplace in coaching. Instead of risk losing an assistant, you give them a token title that doesn’t really mean anything but it justifies giving them a raise and the assistant sticks around. 

            In this case, I’m sure Whit was worried that a flatout demotion from Co-OC back to OL coach would make Harding leave. So to let Harding save face, he ‘promotes’ him to Assistant Head Coach.

            I would love to hear what his new duties include as the assistant head coach. Fetching Whit a cup of coffee before a coaches meeting, perhaps? 

            Harding is the OL coach. Nothing more.

              Harding will leave after this season so what do I care. Harding should be on his knees groveling before Whitt before feeling any animosity towards him.

      I agree, the Oline looks confused on every play.  They let at least 1-2 rushers in on every pass play.  Not sure if it’s a Harding or Taylor issue, but they are horrid right now.  Problem is our D is just as bad as the O.  Our whole team/coaching staff is pretty pathetic right now.

      Or it could be he doesn’t have 4 NFL guys up front?

      What is the correct answer?
      – Coaches fault because we don’t have the talent up front on the lines?
      – We have the talent but coaches doing a bad job with the schemes?
