FIRE GREG HARBAUGH

I think we beat MSU today if no 2nd half breakdowns. This offense isn’t beating NW though, 😔

Yep, Drake came out looking hung over from the Iowa debacle. He's bounced back nicely. I don't have an issue with the playcalling to this point, maintain your blocks and throw catchable passes.

100%, there have been plays to be made where Drake has missed or a player has dropped the ball....

Just feels like defense has like 15 guys on the field when we are on offense and everything is a struggle.
 










I challenge anyone here to tell me Harbaugh is a good OC and cite your evidence hahahahaha

I have no way shape or form think that he is. But admit, especially without Darius Taylor we are just bad on offense no matter what you call.

Sir, we are bad WITH Darius Taylor. He's hasn't exactly lit the world on fire the last two years.....the constant little bubble screens and blocking scheme is atrocious, no identity on offense and the rotating play calls with no imagination kills us...

lol. Blaming the coaches after every bad play is the laziest take of all. The coach didn’t fall down making that catch and making a bad throw. The coach did not run that route one yard too short of the first down.

The coaches did call RUTM on every 2nd and 10 in the first half.

The coaches did call a dozen screen plays after every single one failed.

The coaches did script 8 game opening drives this season that has netted 3 points total against FBS competition.

The coaches did take seven games this season to learn not to run from the shotgun on 3rd and 4th and 1.

There are plenty of schematic, decision making, and other coaching things to critique. Were you saying the same thing about Robb Smith before he was fired? Coaching is about putting your players in the best position to succeed, and Greg has been inconsistent and generally bad at that.
 

We are currently tied with Purdue as the 2nd worst B1G offense in PPG in conference games. Only Wisconsin is worse!1000001745.jpg

Ok. You be you. Talent and execution is by far the biggest issue. Although you could blame coaches for recruiting that talent.

You put this nail into the board with one swing of the hammer. Also our O-line has not been this bad since Brew was here..... The amount of -1 yard pass plays I haven't seen in....ever.
 



Making the new quarterback look like Pat Mahomes. MN teams have a habit of doing that...
 

There have been one, maybe two offenses under P.J. that I would consider great. There’s been no visible difference in offensive playstyles though four different OCs. The common thread is P.J.. This isn’t an excuse for Harbaugh, just an acknowledgment of the fact we’ll probably calling for the head of the next OC in 2 years for the same reasons.
 

The problem with Harbaugh is that he is widely predictable. Just one small example. Overtime, after the pass interference against us, we have the ball around the 5. He bunches the line and runs the dive. "Itchy Boy" makes a nice hard run. He then calls for the same exact play in the same or similar formation. Now, to his credit, the bootleg was a good call, but for me, there are just way too many of the predictable calls. He needs to let his play calling loose. There are time I think he does okay, but I've never felt he was a very good or awesome play caller. Only here and there, good call. I think this offense could hum, but we choose not to. Now, how much of that is Fleck? I don't know....
 

In Harbaugh’s defense, the OL stinks and the WR’s can’t create separation.
