"No surprise as we have gutless head coach"
"There is a reason why Carey has not been taken away by a bigger program. Now we are stuck with him for how many more years?"
"This is not a good, well-coached team."
"We want a change because we see the program is going in the wrong direction."
Of course, everyone over there is in their usual pissy "we suck, we'll never win again"-mode... but don't quote Maddawg, please. The guy is a moron and doesn't deal with the real world.
On the other hand, if you're in it for the schadenfreude, then he's your guy.
The sun came up this morning. There's a game next week. Beat WMU.

Or if the DBs didn't suck....
On a couple of plays in question where our backs just looked absolutely lost, was this because they don't understand the zone concept well? I know there has been talk about cheating eyes throughout this season, but that didn't seem to be the same issue as looking in.
Or, are they just athletically incapable of covering receivers?

They're athletically capable.

Better off playing more man up?

Good news is, you might not have to cover our WRs. They're going to drop the pass anyway.

Wonderful, we'll have your wide-open, uncovered WRers dropping passes. Should make for a great show on ESPN. LOL

Maybe it's a plot by NIU to make the offense so painful to watch that ESPN switches us back to Saturday games.

Wonderful idea!
Return Saturday afternoon football and gradually rebuild our fan bases which have eroded since the ill-conceived establishment of "MACtion," JV football broadcasts.
