Your wish may be granted...New DC and Safetys coach coming... Both left the team to pursue other opportunities.

IMO, the Rockets were in positions to be successful. Starting with the Florida game, the defense stepped up and played well. It was the offense that failed to generate consistency. The Rockets trailed Mizzou by a single point and had the momentum before the Tigers regained it with a huge turnover and ball control. The Ball State loss, in large part, was due to two fumbles (neither forced by the Cards) and ten team penalties - BSU have just one penalty the entire game. The Rockets were in control of the NIU game until someone poked Lynch and the NIU defense with a sharp stick. The Rockets controlled their own destiny and certainly were in position to be successful. Pass defense failed too many times against Akron.

There is a ton of talent on this team. We'll see how the coaches and players treat the off season and respond next year.

I put the Ball St loss squarely on the shoulders of the Offensive Coordinator. The only stat you need to know is 13 recs for 37 yards for Bernard Reedy. Insanity is doing the same thing, expecting different results. Came out to start the 3rd quarter running Flu left, running Flu right, and running Flu up the middle. Ran the ball down their throats, until the Rockets fumbled inside the 5 yard line. Would've, could've, should've!!!
