I'll definitely admit Chins has been trending in a pleasant direction. I've said a few times I think he's a whipping boy for far too many. It always felt like he was the immediate fall guy if things didn't go smoothly for Scott. Chins has earned his paycheck so far.
I'm probably not well read enough about the team this year to know all these references to S&C strides, but the proof will be in the pudding soon enough. Hope some of you guys are right on that and it's not just another gospel according to Frost supporters item. I do think there's some of it showing up in the trenches, which is where it all starts and ends anyhow.
The clear shortcomings are the entire issue and those mostly reflect the disposition of the head man. I do have a glimmer of hope Turd can push accountability onto Scott, and Scott is receptive to the message he sorely needs to hear and act upon. I expect excuses to be in the rearview mirror by this point in a coach's tenure.
