Hammock looks to be a good leader and motivator. He's also old school, so he won't be like PJ bringing in psychics and fire walking as motivators.

And I'm guessing Hammock won't be requiring the fans to dance a certain way?

I bet Hammock doesn't care what music gets played, doesn't demand fans stand in order to get the team pumped up.

Harbison made a comment in MAC Media Day about a change to an accountability culture this year.

DOubtful. Coach Hammock seems like a decent but no-nonsense kind of guy. I may change my opinion if he decides to put oars on the uniforms.

If we have any kind of offense this year the fans will be standing anyway.
Carey's three-and out game plan was brutal to watch.

Is there any chance at all NIU can scrap those awful white road uniforms this year. Those are the most abysmal uniforms ever.

I hope so. I don't know what school they're trying to be, why can't they wear the school colors?

They just remind me of some old Nintendo football game

It's plainly obvious.

Apparently, white has become a school color to them.
Both my wife and I hate those underwear/pajama uniforms. Of course they should wear the white tops, but wear black or red pants. Then again, if they can keep winning in the all-whites, keep wearing them!

They can't even be bothered to put NIU or a Huskie head on the helmet

RE: Play like a Huskie....put the ball down, let's play.
I personally wish they would go white shoes, white knee socks, white pants, white jerseys, and white helmets. Not only because it would look sharp, but because it would piss the old people off.
Then have them all flip their bats after a touchdown. Oh wait, wrong sport. Right demographic tho.

If you piss off the old people the attendance will be 20 people.

Im not completely against the all white thing, but at least have some identifiable mark of the university on the helmet. Just go with the look @ Northwestern and @ UNLV in 2015 if you go all white.
One of my lasting memories of the upset win at Iowa in 2013 is Matt Sims walking off the field holding the NIU helmet high above his head. It is too great of a logo to hide.
