How do you miss that hold?
do you guys really not understand that's not the play we're calling? That Tommy just ignores the underneath man entirely if there's a chance to air it out?
No, I'm not proud of this, I'm also not so incredibly stupid as to think this warrants "burning it down and starting over."
Who's job is it to correct his ignoring the correct read all year?do you guys really not understand that's not the play we're calling? That Tommy just ignores the underneath man entirely if there's a chance to air it out?
Agreed. uninspired play and coaches look disenchanted weird feel.A very bad half of football - dominated by an average football team
My daughter plays volleyball with a girl who can absolutely crush a hit occasionally but more often hits out and is a defensive liability. You would be shocked how many times during a tournament a fan of another team raves about how that girl hits, but for every one kill, she gives up 3 pts to the other team. The flashy kill resonates with them, but they miss the small things that girl does that hurts the team. And the coach doesn't pull her often, she thinks the next play will be the one where she just crushes it, but usually doesn't. It's kind of how Tommy is, sometimes makes good plays, but far more often, makes a bad play. We've tolerated poor QB play for 8 years now, we don't know any better.
Armstrong doesn't play defense.We're going to lose this game because the coaches chose to start TA. He's limited in running, thus making him one dimensional. This is on the coaches.
Our coaching staff sucks. You can see it in their body language. They might as well have not even showed up today. Nobody is getting coached up. They don't want to win. They don't want to be there. A bunch of west coast tree huggers have neutered a once proud and prideful program. Sad.
tommy?Who's job is it to correct his ignoring the correct read all year?
Zac darlington. Healthy and hungry to win. But a hurt sucky stat rat is our best option, riiiight.......We also don't really have another option. I think if Ryker hadn't gotten hurt last week, he'd be playing right now. I mean, our other option is a dude who's entire career here has been as a holder.
Them take him out? Ha has done this for 3.5 years, maybe a coach should have noticed this tendency last year.do you guys really not understand that's not the play we're calling? That Tommy just ignores the underneath man entirely if there's a chance to air it out?
And I thought the other guy had won dumbest post of the season going away.Wow.
Actually, Iowa is dominating an average football team. I'm sure that's what you meant though.A very bad half of football - dominated by an average football team

Jesus dude, stop posting. Nothing you say is remotely intelligent.Zac darlington. Healthy and hungry to win. But a hurt sucky stat rat is our best option, riiiight.......

Maybe Pelini sucked but do you think we are getting better?tommy?
You really don't think the coaches point this out when they're watching film? He's a poor decision maker. If he's completely unwilling or unable to go through his progression, it's not on the coaches. In a perfect world he'd be benched. In this world, benching him would mean benching him for a walk on who is only moderately better..and makes us one dimensional. And is playing with a broken hand today. Literally the only thing they could do to correct it at this point, is stop running deep routes and they can't do that, or the underneath guys would never be open.
Next year, if we're doing this crap, then yes, you can blame these coaches. This year, you blame Pelini for shitty recruiting and you blame the guy who makes the wrong decision almost every single play.
I'm fairly certain I spelled out why they can't take him out. Our QB depth is horrendous and undertalented. Until 2017.Them take him out? Ha has done this for 3.5 years, maybe a coach should have noticed this tendency last year.
We aren't scoring with Fyfe either....put this half on the "Blackshirts."Nope, but what has our offense done?
They could've answered and they haven't.

Iowa has lost 4 games and by no means are they an above average team.Actually, Iowa is dominating an average football team. I'm sure that's what you meant though.
Your defense looks slow and tackling is poor.
