Go Rockets!
Puts an interesting light on last season's coaching performance.
He can recruit them. He can development them. Now if he could only get them ready for the game and call the game.

My thoughts exactly...
Last season wasn't a coaching problem in my eyes. It was lack of development and skill at the LB and QB positions. OL too in comparison to seasons in the past. The rest of our team was fine...

Exactly. Toledo has great players. Some units weren’t quite there yet.

Front 7 issues on Defense. Still don't like the 3 man rush on passing situations. Put more of the blame on OL with not being able to convert on short yardage and breakdowns on pass protection.QB's produced more passing TDs than the previous season.
I think last year was a mixed bag of sorts. Injuries on OL, terrible defensive scheme, QB change due to injury, and no ability to sustain a consistent effort ie: EMU disaster with the (12) 1st quarter penalties. Some games we looked like World Beaters and other games (Fresno State, EMU) we couldn't get out of our own way. All these players going to The NFL is a true testament of the talent on our FB Team, coaching or both. I'm gonna go with the former.

GO ROCKETS!!!
