Lincoln Riley talks about the mistakes he made vs. Baylor
- Thread starter bullmarket

Nah, Mike did his standard deflect blame to players, injuries and execution. Broken record.
Riley did also mention that some players were leaving their lanes to try and be heroes but wouldn't name who. He said he'd address them personally.
Everyone knows players shoulder blame...
...but no coach should say anything outside of taking them blame on themselves. As a team, you don't point fingers. That's our privilege as fans. I will never maliciously badmouth a player, but I will point out their negatives, as well as positives, in what is my armchair opinion.
I support that opinion from the NFL level and down. NFL players deserve more personal accountability, and get as such from media and fans, but even professional level coaches should be using the proverbial "we" in press conferences and interviews.
