Geoff Calkins goes on and on about Norvell being better than Fuente. I'm glad we have Norvell, but he's nowhere close to Fuente.

I disagree

Fuente gave a similar type game away at Houston.

That Houston team would have beaten this Navy team by 30...that is not a quality basis of comparison.

Geez we have to endure these idiotic posts now.

It's similar in that both Tiger teams had the game in hand in the 4th quarter only to piss it away.

Just saying I think Fuente is better and will have the better career.

No kidding. Thought the same thing.

We saw the same thing last year with Norvell. He has a disturbing pattern of making really dumb play calls.

Norvell gets too conservative on offense sometimes with a lead. Norvell is way better at the PR side of things and recruiting than Fuente. Fortunate to have both.

Fuente made stupid decisions too. Like keeping his BFF Galen Scott as DC even though he couldn't field any kind of defense even if he got to use 22 players at once.

I agree with PR and recruiting, but I think that's overplayed by our local media. I do have doubts that Mike will succeed in his next job, and I think long term Fuente will by far have the better career.

Fuente is the better football coach... Norvell is the better salesman. Justin couldn’t recruit at the level Norvell does, and ultimately, players win games.

Go Tigers! This was just one game. Things will get better. Keep your panties on.

Today was not good, but not sure about that overall.

Norvell did not fumble three times after getting nice gains. Those were killers. The play calling in the last two series was poor. But if Taylor does not lose that fumble it is highly possible we win something like 24-9. That was a monster error.

I hope so.

I remember getting worked by Navy with Fuente and also losing to UTM
