That is sure what it sounds like and at what point do you question Brewster and hold him accountable for the ridiculous amount of turnover in his staff. The most successful programs have stability and longevity in their coaching staffs and it is hard to move forward when the players have to learn a new terminology and offense and or defense every year. The other thin that concerns me is that Brewster appears more than willing to throw his staff under the bus at a moments notice and lets hope it doesn't hurt him from getting good assistants to come here in the future. Coach Dunbar whether you liked him or not had a record of success prior to coming here and I wish him well. If Brewster didn't want to run the spread fine, but he should have had an idea on this before hiring Dunbar because he is running the same offense he has run for years so it shouldn't have been a surprise to Brewster. If the issue is truly that all these coaches relieved of their duties were bad coaches(which I do not believe across the board), then what does that say about Brewsters evaluation of coaches and his hiring decisions and what faith should we put in his future hires. He appears to be grasping at straws in my opinion.
Ridiculous turnover? How many coaches have resigned or been fired? The Packers just let go five coaches at one time. I don't think he's throwing his assistants under the bus at all. Brewster was brought in here to recruit, Dunbar was brought in to run the offense. Dunbar was not doing it as well as he should by most accounts. To me it shows that Brewster wants to win and expects nothing less. If you're not doing your job, then he's not afraid to get rid of you.
I still think Brewster wants to run the spread offense a lot but still have the ability to pound the ball from time to time.
