Good enough to get the win, not good enough to question the quality of our coordinators.
I am not sure if moving on is the answer, but outside of the Nebraska game, I never felt that our team was coached up in a way that made them shine at or above the level of talent they had.
It's a "B" in the eyes of media almost everywhere because if you remember most of them had us pegged in the bottom 4 in the B1G. I remember all of our protest for not trust Lindsay, our OL, WR's and CB.
It is a "C" in the eyes of us fans because we got what many of us expected them to be at...
SEC = talking heads of ESPN, History of excellence with Alabama and home turf "playoff" victories -- the ability to create a narrative that suits them well. The narrative the SEC was deeper and the B1G is only 3 great teams won the AP rankings. Imagine what Iowa would have been like if they...
B - we knew going into this season that the OL experience and WR talent was not that great. We also knew the CB room was inexperienced and lost a lot of talent. I, like many here, hoped that somehow the OL and WR rooms would be better than expected and that somehow the CB room would be covered...
It took me a while to think of anything. Then I remember that this crappy state is like a bed of manure that will eventually poop out:

Bethel wins 17-10 against St. Johns in the class of the titans in the MIAC. It was a solid defensive battle. Biggest moments of the game was when St. John was 1st and Goal from the 3 and couldn't punch it in despite getting to the 3 inch line on 1st down. Then Bethel on 3rd and long, inside...
I can't believe this is even a question that someone posted on this board. It is ridiculous. THE DRAKE and it isn't even close. Brady needed a great coach, great lines, great defenses to be elevated to his status. THE DRAKE elevates others and makes Fleck and the whole team better.
We will learn a lot about our coaches and our team vs. Rutgers. Rutgers is not slouch. They have some obvious holes (giving up 30 to Iowa) but they have some talent in the skilled positions. This game will be a battle and will show a lot about the mental make-up of the coaches and team.
It was a panic hire in the first place and followed up with a panic firing. All this at a time where UCLA has a bad athletic budget and now has to pay athletes additional monies. I can't imagine they will find a coach wanting to take over that dumpster fire easily. Their best bet is to find a...
I love anything that give teams that are not helmet schools a better chance to show that they are for real. Remember our 2019 team - the fact is in a 16 team playoff we probably don't get in. Not because we weren't one of the better teams, but because our only top 25 win was against Penn...
