Message: [QUOTE="Pyle, post: 1155400, member: 137"] 1. Coach P had exactly 1 sub .500 season(not counting a bowl loss), in the 10 years since he was fired we've endured 5 losing seasons and seem well on our way to #6. 2. Michigan has been a train wreck since Carr left. 3. Agreed 4. Apology or not, it's undisciplined and indicative of the way our team plays. 5. Yes Marrone was a good hire, the way he cut and bailed though tells me there are behind the scenes issues. He didn't want to be here. I don't believe it's because he's an 'NFL' guy, he wasn't getting the support he needed from the top. It seems with the IPF going up that may be less of an issue than before and I hope so. 6. Isn't it the coaches job to give the kids a gameplan they can execute? 7. We can make excuses, fact is 1 TD pass in 5 games. That doesn't get it done. 8. Shouldn't our 2's beat their 1's? 9. I'd rather see Mike Williams, Alec Lemon, Marcus Sales, etc. We need a true #1 WR. Blame goes to Marrone for this though, I don't expect one of Shafer's guys to be ready to step in to that role yet. Hoping Ishmael is there by next year. 10. We have fair weather fans but Rutgers packs their stadium. They are doing something right and we are not. They also charge 10x what we do for parking and still pack their stadium. 11. New Hampshire is still a D1-FCS school. Not DIII like Cortland State. Chip Kelly also shattered every offensive record at NH. Since Kelly is the model for comparison I'd like to see this from Lester: In his first season as offensive coordinator at Oregon, the Ducks led the [URL='http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pacific-10_Conference']Pac-10[/URL] in scoring (38.15 ppg) and total offense (467.54 ypg), and also became the highest scoring team while amassing the most yards in the history of [URL='http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oregon_Ducks_football']Oregon football[/URL]. Prior to Kelly's arrival at Oregon, [URL='http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dennis_Dixon']Dennis Dixon[/URL] struggled in his first three seasons at quarterback. Under Kelly's guidance, Dixon was the [URL='http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pac-10_Offensive_Player_of_the_Year']Pac-10 Offensive Player of the Year[/URL] and emerged as a [URL='http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heisman_Trophy']Heisman Trophy[/URL] candidate. 12. The whole point of my post is simply to say maybe we should worry about our own issues before we run around slamming other programs. [/QUOTE]
