Coaches (Brannen being no exception) tend to have big egos. He doesn't think he is the problem, the players are the problem. If he has made mistakes it's because he has been too lenient.
If it works and we turn things around great. If not, it probably burns things down quickly, which is also good as we don't want to keep a bad coach around longer than needed.
The rest of the season and early post-season will tell us a lot. There are a lot of indications that there are issues in the locker room. It's either players or Brannen, but there are definitely problems. Either Brannen fixes it, or there is an exodus and Brannen's coaching career here will come to a quick end.

He’s not going to say publicly that there are issues. He has to get recruits in here and guys to stay. We don’t know what he’s saying privately but I don’t think it’s be a great idea to say the sky is burning, then go try to convince guys to come here.
