Thoughts? Personally, I think it's BS and maybe he mixed up Tuitt and Nix. I thought Lou has been great all year.


If they aren't happy with Lewis....we need a new "coaching staff"

Who tf is this yates guy

Dude writes for a website called majoronions.com.
And he still considers Diaco one of the hottest assistant coaches in college football. Did he not see the 41 Michigan dropped on Saturday?

From UND.com - Nix has 5 total tackles - 4 solo and one assisted tackle, one TFL

Tuitt has 3 total, 2 solo + one assist - one sack and an INT

Sounds like more bodies in the rotation is in the game plan. I don't like seeing Nix and Tuitt taking 60+ snaps in a game.

Nix had five against Michigan if I remember correctly. I thought he had one against Temple? Why the difference? This guy needs to know the dink and dunk of Temple, in addition to being double and triple teamed 65% of the night explains a lot.

I heard someone bad mouth Tuitt, too; a sports repoter (would be), not a board member. Fvck them all. There are only so many talking head IQ points floating around. More talking heads, lower average IQ's.

Anyone who wants to rip a kid after the disastrous game plan both ways Saturday night last, good luck, and god bless! That is just proof of stupidity!

I agree. They are obviously doing it to move the blotter a little bit and get views on whatever they are reporting. Sensationalism is what gets people to read your stuff, not facts.

How many hits would they get if they explained the nuances of the 3-4 defense, and how defensive lineman are space eaters allowing linebackers to come up and make tackles. I would be willing to bet that there is not a defensive lineman in the nation making incredible amounts of tackles each game, and it isn't because there are no good dlineman around.

Nix is playing his role on the defense and taking up blockers, which should in turn pay dividends for our linebackers. I also have a hard time believing that the coaches are not happy with his play. I mean didn't Kelly just refer to him as a BEAST in the press conference. I think that says it all.

Even Todd McShay moved Lou up to #3 on his draft board because of his performance this year.

I really hope the D comes out the rest of the year with something to prove and kicks a$$ and takes names. This could go one of two ways and I feel with this team and our staff it will be the way I see it.

Does this make Michael Floyd "Irish Coffee" trying to rally after a long night?



Too soon? Too judgmental? Too stupid?

Out against Air Force with shoulder injury. Guess that's due to USC basically trying to rip his arms off.

EDIT: now Kelly says its knee tendinitis. Idk

I remember him getting blown up behind the line and landing on his shoulder during USC. I can't remember which half it was in but he finished the game. I hope it is not both.

Per ESPN, Nix will not be making the trip to Colorado (Air Force). Blaming it on knee tendinitis.
