F and it’s not close. You failed 50% of the game so even if you aced the first half it’s lights out

My "Fire Fleck" Meter is approaching 90% tonight.

The number of times he has lost trophy games plays in to it.

True, but I remind myself, would Minnesota ever pony up to bring in a better coach? No it would be a name coordinator or mid level conf coach with a 5 year turn around with way more losses for at least 3 years in the process..
(Ask Nebraska)
Unfortunately PJ is about the best we going to get....

I'm sorry, but his trophy game record is enough to slash my contributions (Athletic department or NIL Collective) down to zero. It's is embarrassing.
 


Someone start a PJ countdown clock.
 




The way Iowa punched us in the mouth to open the 3rd quarter falls on coaching. I have a lot of issues with our defensive holes but we had momentum going into the 2nd half and we just let them punk us.
 



Problem is the rodents will never attract a big name coach to hard to recruit not enough nil money and now with 4 west coast teams 7 win seasons will be the best they can do
 




Overall we tackle like shit upfront against good RBs. 92 and 14 tackle good to great — 45 is an absolute f’ing disaster somewhere along the line he forgot how to tackle.

Maybe, I think you need to actually tackle in practice in order to know how to fucking tackle. This is the pros where those guys don’t need to tackle to the ground and practice. We need to be doing that twice a week.

I’m not ready to fire PJ, but getting close. I would go back 15-20 years… firing Mason wasn’t the wrong decision, hiring Brewster was the wrong decision.

There are a lot of good coaches out there. At the end of the day if your school is in the Big Ten or SEC you are automatically one of the best jobs in the country.
 

Now we're a pass first team.

Let that sink in while thinking about coaching.
 

F, prime time, national telecast, and owned, yet again in a trophy game. I seriously don't see another win this year based on what I've seen so far.
 



I'm trying to remember who won the coin toss - I thought it was Iowa and they deferred. If so, why did we choose to play on the east side of the field going west, where Max needed to look directly into the sun? With the start time, the setting sun was brutal going that direction. I'm guessing the sun was part of the reason he threw that interception. I get that if we chose the other side our receivers would have to look backwards into the sun, but I still think going west-to-east would have been the better field choice.

Here's the TV shot right before he threw the pic.
