Week 3 vs Northern Cockeye Depth Chart + Game Notes, Odds & Ends

Man my coach talks so much shit and walks the walk I would die for this guy

If I was a player who spent five years underachieving in a losing culture it would be so empowering to have a guy like Rhule lead your team meetings for once. Makes more sense why those guys came back now. Wasn’t as much a business decision as I thought

I bet at least fives guys have expressed to the staff since the hire that they “love football again”
 
Random UNI tidbits I found:

They have 3 Nebraska high school guys on their roster - Brogan Ling, Blake Anderson (I believe a starter on their OL), and Sam Thomas.

Former Husker Kamonte Grimes is on their roster. Played in 7 games last year & 1 so far this year, but doesn't appear to have any catches or stats.

WR coach is Joel Filani, former TTU WR who went off against us for 10-163 & 3 TDs in 2005 (including the heartbreaker with 12 seconds left to beat us).

Their DL coach is Bryce Paup, former NFL defensive MVP, who still looks like some kind of comic book character with a chin that's been chiseled out of granite:

Are you telling me there are two douche bags out there that named their kid “Brogan”
 
UTEP lost to Southern Utah this past weekend.
It will be interesting to track how teams perform the week after playing us. Rhule wants us to be physically dominant. Teams will still be recovering the following week after playing us and it should effect their next game...especially lower-level teams like UTEP.

I'm not saying that's what happened with UTEP, but I do think that it is a goal of Rhule's, to be so physically dominant that teams are effected the week after playing us.

That would indeed be a return to the glory days. Teams actually afraid to play us....
