I kind of hope Satt was quietly relieved of OC duties and Thomas is calling the shots now. Rhule just doesn’t want to make that public and have those publicly made changes instantly be sledgehammered this weekend against the Buckeyes.
In order for that to work, a checked out Satterfield still needs to attend press conferences and answer questions. He just doesn’t give a shit when the questions asked don’t pertain to his job anymore and doesn’t have the emotional intelligence to act like he does.
At least that’s the hope. Start the new coordinating now, accept our lumps against Ohio State, hopefully see improvement against UCLA to become bowl eligible, have another bye week to hopefully actually improve and attempt to salvage the season in the back three games.
