I had forgotten how bad of a runner HH was

Nah. In season firings of assistants is stupid.

I wouldn’t have had a problem firing Foley after the Buttgers game. It’s not like you can get any worse.

 

[EwokRhuler]

Raiola seems to have ZERO fight in him! Smart, talented, build, but weak as shit in the heart and soul department!

I think it's time for him to drop the Mahomes schtick and become his own person...

At least big red overreaction will be entertaining

The taters screaming there have nothing on the poasters screaming here.

 

[...TrueColors...]

I agree, but many couldn’t see it. Rhule is in a super conference now. It’s one thing to develop a coaching staff in the Big 12, but you better have a great staff in the BIG or you’re going to get exposed and that’s where we stand today. I’m not looking for every assistant to get fired, but there better be some vast changes, or we will be looking for a new coach 2-3 years from now.

The point I was making back then was “You’re going up against James Franklin, Ryan Day, Lincoln Riley, and at the time Kalin Doboer. Are these the guys you actually think will out-fox them?”

Nice check down throw that was tipped

The receiver was like triple covered. Bad decision to throw and another poorly schemed play. Satt is so figured out it is embarrassing.

 

[Sous Chef]

Hey at least my ribs turned out great!

 

[Mr.Bojangles]

I mean it’s all of the above. I truly can’t think of a single player who played well today.

Yeah it was a butt fuckest from the gun. I'd rather be a victim in a terrifier move than continue watch this crap.

Closer we get to rut closer we get to ice fishing season sumbitch so I'm with you

And fill inbetween with duck hunting. Freeing up Saturdays is for the best

Satt’s game plan is bad and teams know most likely Raiola will only throw it 1-7 yards downfield

Here we go, got one of the gaslighters on already!

I bailed a day early from a mule deer hunt for this fucking shit show!

I disagree, we need to stop thinking we have to throw the bank at big name people or we are going to suck. We are paying a guy 10 million and asst record levels to get our ass handed to us by a team paying half or more less. Find solid football coaches at lower levels and find a style to win.....I am so tired of the attempt to make us an nfl lite team.

 

[Cash68847]

The ire over some of the coaching staff hires was correct. We got totally outcoached and out schemed today by 1000 miles. And this is nothing new - you could see it happening after the CU game. Neither our OC or DC are ingenious enough to make adjustments. Both offense and defense are figured out by the opposition, and badly. And now the snowball has turned into an avalanche - the team has quit - and that is when the season is really lost. Continually being put into bad situations kills players confidence.

That Rhule program turnaround thing is looking much less likely for us. This is a different/better conference and there are few if any gimmes, and opposing staffs look to almost all be better than ours for the most part. In all phases of the game.

I’m not all the way out on White for a couple reasons. I don’t think he had a huge say in hiring his assistants on defense and his track record has been solid in the past. I also think our talent at linebacker is garbage. On the other hand I do think our defense was a little overrated last year because the offenses we played were garbage.

 

[tman87]

Agreed. I don't mind the buddy hires because he had a history of making good hires. I judge the head coach if they are willing to make the tough decisions when it is time to let them go. Even if it mid season.

A lot of the offensive staff needs to go, but mid season, don't really see the point. Foley - OK - but who we bringing in?

Rhule needs to be active looking for some replacements, and yes, it's gonna cost NU money to do this. Do we want to turn this around or not?

Too bad we way overpaid some of these assistant hires, makes firing then hiring better guys expensive as hell. But again, do we want to win or not?

 

[PLA]

Running reverses down fiddy screams confidence!

 

[Herbie]

Haarberg passes are still so bad it’s hard to intercept them. Has that over Raiola

 

[Black Dean]

Still remember the time we hired the G5 guy with the exciting offensive philosophy.

We tried Indianus’s move and it failed. We’ve tried everyone else’s moves and they fail. It’s pretty clear who the problem is.

Like it or not if you want to get proven coaches you’re going to pay money. Rhule paid his assistants top money when most weren’t proven. That was the biggest gripe I had.
