I think since hes been here hes done as worse of a job as Latina has. What exactly is this guys qualifications? We need a real strength and conditioning coach.

I'm sure the entire coaching staff should be held accountable

Do you think they are physically weak? I have sort of questioned that after watching them get pushed around. Especially the o-line.

Yes, there is no reason a O-line full of 4 and 5 star recruits that way over 5 hundred pounds shouldn't be able to push some of these D-lines around. I mean Syracuse and Navy were stuffing our running game. And than theres the lack of explosion as well.

I have been saying Mendoza has to go for a long, long time now. Just look at Sam Young - not getting down on the kid, but, as a three year starter and at 6'8" and 320+ he should be dominating like Jake Long or someone of that caliber. We should be able to run behind him at will! And yet, he gets called for more holding penalties than most of the other linemen. Not a knock on him as much as it is a bad mark against his physical training and technique. The other indicator for me is how all our players go down on first contact more often than not. We are not strong. Our line has the size, but they do not blow people up!

Mendoza needs to be packing his things up TOMORROW! The sooner we get him out the sooner our boys can get on a better program for strength and conditioning.

I have never heard anyone quote how much any of the lineman are benching or squatting. I can't see a formed bicep on any of their arms. I bet Brady Quinn (who is no slouch) can out lift all of them.

Is their a rule agianst working out in the off season? It looks like there is at ND.

funny, i was thinking the same thing thru out the game saturday nite. nd looked like a high school team against usc. usc was explosive, nd wasn't. i believe that comes from the lack of strength and conditioning.
