How many coaches get fired each year? How many either go on to get additional chances where they maybe succeed...or fail again? Are crowdsourced opinions/keyboard coordinators always wrong? Or just when Remember Murray disagrees with them? Having the benefit of no personal relationship or...

Unless potentially, it's a condition they already know he has and isn't supposed to be discussed public for a number of reasons.

Low key? What they were doing wasn't working......yet they continued. The players don't get to call the plays and make adjustments. The players don't substitute out under-performing players. The players didn't make excuses like "we gameplanned to throw CRAB the ball". Our team wasn't good...

Yes, the current personnel is clearly better than Brewster and Kill teams. The playcalling has been atrociously simple and predictable, nullifying any advantages the Gophers have against teams like BG and Miami. They seem to get more risk-adverse every game. It's Limegrover-like. Arguably...

Whoa whoa whoa. I think most of us appreciate the idea of treating other humans with respect. But Iowa fans? What next? I suppose we should also treat Badger fans civilly? You might need professional help.

I think you're probably making too strong of assumptions. Remember the whole "progress comes in increments, not in a straight line", or however he phrased it? That, and the "Year Zero" line don't suggest to me that he ever thought winning the West would be easy. He obviously wanted to temper...

I would think we could use some quick developing passes requiring minimal blocking from the RB in the few instances where we actually do opt to throw the ball.

Exactly, you wonder whether PJ actually believes one of the deciding factors as to why they put together 4 terrible quarters on offense and special teams, complete with multiple game changing bone-head penalties.....against Bowling Green....was that Chris Autman Bell got injured. Not sure which...

I thought the Scroggins article was great. Not sure how anyone being honest with themselves could call it trolling. It was slightly caustic at some points, but deservedly so, and reflects the anger of many at just how bad yesterday's performance was. After seeing the video of PJ crowdsurfing...

Look back at the post I responded to. PJ says a lot of things, many of which are true and others that are wishful thinking. I'll never be mistaken for a football coach, but as an observer, it didn't seem like a whole lot of adjustments were made to the offense after halftime, other than maybe...

He also claimed that they made a lot of adjustments at halftime....and I think he might have said they made "good" adjustments. I guess that meant putting Cole Kramer in on the touchdown run?

so would it be accurate to say Sanford > Simon > Ciarrocca > PJ in the hair department?

The offense was pretty one-dimensional last week as well, though with a better result. And after two weeks in a row, and seeing some of Miami's successes, it's likely that Bowling Green schemed specifically for our dumbed down trench warfare, 'try and stop us' approach on offense. We didn't get...

Sarcasm aside, the Gophers have had some solid seasons with less talent than this year's team. I think it's pretty clear this loss is mostly about the Gophers pregame preparation and terrible game management, both of which can be fixed if PJ doesn't fixate on excuses and instead, learns...

How sure are we that this is all Sanford's fault? They show the ability at times to throw the ball down the field, and it seems like in the Miami and BG games, they just implemented a ridiculously simplified offensive game strategy and showed zero ability to make adjustments or adapt. I guess...

By your logic, as many as it takes to win the game. He's a strong young man after all, so why not 50 carries? :LOL: Reasonable people can disagree on whether PJ's conservative tendencies are counterproductive at times, but please spare us the indignant lectures.

This is bizarre revisionism for a thread everyone can still read. I didn't see any posts here suggesting the running game was "screwed" as a result of Mo's injury. Most comments were about having RB depth and wondering/speculating on how carries would be distributed going forward.

Not really. Pretty easy to interpret this as proof that the Gophers had strong running back depth that could have been used to avoid running Potts 35 times against a MAC team in his first game as a starter (never having carried that heavy of load in a college game). Also, it's only one game...

Unless you're invited to a Falwell party.
