Dan Malone reports A. J. Doyle looks to improve during the off season.
Coach Molnar fired offensive coordinator John Bond and receivers coach Allen Suber yesterday.
The Boston Herald quotes the Maroon Musket saying UMass axes two assistants.
Changing assistant coaches is a time honored way of coping after an unsuccessful season. However, when your composite QB goes 6-19-137 and three INT's as they did against Ohio, that kinda limits your play calling.
Coach Molnar has every right to change assistants. Coach Whipple shuffled his assistants several times during his tenure here.
I still think we really, really, really need a JUCO QB or fifth-year transfer to jump start our offense. UMass was 12th in the MAC in scoring, total offense, passing and pass efficiency.
Nationally we were 111th in passing and yards per completion. The Minutemen were 121st (second to last) in scoring. UMass was 118th in team passing efficiency.
