Not unusual for a Sophomore player to experience. I do think he's a shining example of the problems we have with the defensive philosophy and coaching this year.

I haven't read the posts after the game on Saturday, but I'm surprised there hasn't been a nod to the 242 yards Koi amassed in kick returns. We haven't seen a day like that since Troy Stoudermire in 2008 against Iowa. Given some of the criticisms of his play this year (much of it deserved)...

That't not fair. Macturi did exactly what he was sent here to do - dismantle the athletics department. The best you can say about Coyle is thanks to Norwood Teague. Q: What do you think of Coyle? A: Well, he hasn't sexually harassed any employees, so, it was a good hire?

Well, he put the heating thingies under the turf at Huntington Bank. Right?

Pretty sure we would have liked to keep him, but it's not as if we lost someone who'd been a core part of the class for months vs. having a cup of coffee for about 3 weeks.

Coaches in Minnesota respected him. Shaw couldn't overcome their hatred for Mason, however.

Sometimes, when you play not to lose, you lose OR live by the sword, die by the sword.

His take was classic.

We can't afford tennis balls.

This is something that really sucks in my opinion, but this is the new world.

One interpretation. I'm not suggesting that there was a grand conspiracy at the U. There was a concerted effort to make MSP a Major League city (NFL, MLB). That coincided with the U driving the bus off a cliff in their righteousness (misguided in my opinion) that sports had become too...

You are patently ridiculous. Can you show me where being a superior coach makes a difference in being an AD? Maybe, in addition to my musings that PJ's personality and approach would be perfect at the U to be a successful AD, we should make Coyle the Football coach, since you have to be a...

Actually, it isn't. When the U decided to deemphasize sports because of the feeling it was detracting from the primary purpose of the University, a leading academic institution. Go back and look at the press at the time. They U was making a stand in the face of increasing focus and importance...

I could explain it to you, but I cannot understand it for you.

Except that (new) walk-ons aren't a thing anymore.

Agree with your ranking. As for Mason's NC schedules, that's why I only look at B1G games when comparing Mason and PJ.

Most of our passing game recently has been the attempt to simulate a running game. The short passes/screens are because of how poorly the O-line has played outside of the Nebraska game.

AAK was mobile. Really nice kid, too. Spent a little time at the State Fair with my son back in the day. Made my son's day. He didn't need to do that.

He was one of the best assistant coaches at the U in the last 30 years. If he was still in his prime, this Oline would be better than it is right now. He was also one of the best recruiters in the state of Minnesota.

I'll be just fine, thanks. I'm of a generation in which I can point out my thoughts and disagree with someone without curling up in a ball in the corner if I don't get my way. As I've said many times before, PJ has more wins against ranked opponents in the B1G than Mason did in the same amount...
