I've been one of those screaming at my TV to fair catch the ball all season rather than give up yards and start the drive on our 17. Joey's explanation that we were going to keep returning them because we wanted to be aggressive didn't make sense to me until this past Saturday when we went for it on 4th down about a baker's dozen times, including some when it seemed obvious that we should be kicking. I think the dude is culture building. He really does want the team to believe they can take it to the house every single time. He wants to go for the throat and have a team that does the same.
It absolutely looks to be working. We are used to things falling apart when games start going like Houston did. This team got it done. Against NC State, that could have snowballed but the team kept fighting and it was competitive to the end, despite all of our turnovers. I've seen us find ways to lose to Texas more times than I can count, but the team believed they could win and did.
He has the team buying in that if we keep throwing haymakers, eventually they other team will break. It goes back to the interview with Pearson before the season that with the previous staff, there was a sense going into some games they were going to lose but with the new staff they legit think they are going to win every game,
