Formulating a plan to get young players meaningful reps during a game or at the end. He's not a risk taker, he's not a all in kinda coach. He's play not to lose, manage the game, make little to no mistakes and you should win. And that works for 10 games. He won't win those last 2 or 3 that way.
Dabo, Saban, Urb, Pete, Ed O, The Mad Hatter, any of the last few guys to win one or a few are THAT type of coach. BK simply is not. These coaches are putting freshman out there to make plays and letting them. Not handcuffing them because they're not adjusting to your evidently overly-complicated offense in 5 weeks. So they sit a year or two and get disengaged and many times just lost. Not all kids are that saavy with Xs and Os... but are smart and disciplined enough to get to ND in the classroom why not make the transition on the field easier and perhaps things click elsewhere. Nope, not BK's style.
