problem with coaches headsets in the first half

According to a staffer, headsets were a nightmare. With that said, the headsets don't block or tackle people.
C'mon - how would a staffer on this site know that the coaches were having communication issues during the game?
Did Ash mention that was an issue in the post game presser?
Yes. Said it was the reason for the first timeout when they were looking like they were going to go for it at 4 and 1 on their own 30.
Thanks I didn't see the presser. Ash did joke with reporters prior to this game that everything would go perfectly.
I was sitting in the front row of 106...directly behind the cart that houses all the headset equipment. I quote the RU staff member when I say "nightmare."
Regardless. ..4th and 1 early I'm the game and on your own 30 you do not need headsets to be certain the call is PUNT. Give me a break on that one. As poorly as we played in the first quarter that was, and I hate to say this, poor coaching or communication. In those situations you have your punt team ready and especially that early on the game. Maybe the headset problem did have some affect but still let's just kick the damn football and move on.
I don't think the players on the field knew what to do, since in the past under flood they'd sometimes go for it here to come out with a surprise
Please, point out such an instance. Maybe down by 3 or 7 late in the game, yes. But beginning of the game? No coach would do such a thing.
I don't remember an exact instance, but feel like there were many times the opponents had to be on their heels because they didn't know what Flood had up his sleeve.
Tackling was actually pretty good, except when the opposing player runs too fast
