It’s on ND to not let it come down to one play so from coaching staff on down they have no one to blame but themselves. Hinish did get tackled & should’ve been flagged but to assume it would’ve been a sack is a bit much. Reed wasn’t sacked all night & I suspect he’d throw it up for grabs at a minimum.
Exactly. Zero excuses about holds or even t see the missed extra point, this is on Freeman and Ash. If freeman employs ash any longer than it’s really shame on him. He went to the dumpster in Columbus and hired a guy that a DII program wouldn’t touch.

I am against the result of this game
Me too. Lost to a deeply flawed team at home with two weeks to prepare and a tough motivating loss on the road.

My fear after the Miami game was that Miami wasnt actually any good and we were giving them far too much credit.

My concern now is the defense is not good. Our coordinators are not good, or the tools we are giving them are not very good.

All the fucks calling out the “bed wetters” need to show themselves. You just choking on sunshine and rainbows thinking everything is ok. Did you not watch the Miami game? We haven’t serious problems here.
Amen. You can have optimism but if you still think this team is good or that freeman is a good coach you’re delusional. He’s not a good coach and this is not a good program but thank god players graduate🙄

Wasted season.

- Ash is abysmal. He really is. I said he sucked when he was hired and douchebag GrangerIrish called me out on it. Well, chime in now, pal….
- Denbrock ain’t it at all. He actually sucks
- Christina Gray, take a hike
- Buchner, f you. You quit on the team. For whatever reason, Freeman brought you back and then, as a quitter, you did that. Fuck off and ride off on a lacrosse stick

Freeman just blamed the execution and not the defensive play calling. Kelly was right in 2021 we all need to be executed

Not sure if discussed yet but Mike Frank and Jamie from ISD are on the live post game show and confirmed that players and coaches were concerned before the season with how much the defense was changing/being called. BIG YIKES

Only if you don’t give a fuck,…
You know what I don’t. It’s a fucking game. You know what takes more of my fucks? Family. Work. Life. My faith. So why should I fucking cry or get pissed over a game that we have ZERO, control over? You know why? Cause that used to be me and at the end of the day it also ruined the days of the people that meant most to me. That’s why I don’t give a fuck.

Gross.

The good news is that we can sit back and enjoy the rest of the season not having to worry about making the playoffs so if we lose to USC, Arkansas, Pitt, and maybe Syracuse or maybe all four it won’t be as upsetting.
I hope you enjoy me telling you to go fuck off somewhere with that bullshit beta fucking logic.

I tried to warn you all over the summer. Is what it is, no doubt we should've gone with Mickens and we would be 2-0.

Do you know of any other names, that maybe haven't been put out there publicly, that Freeman seriously considered for DC?

But let's be proud we graduate our players. That's really all we will be GREAT at. 👍
Yeah be a worthless football team but thank fucking Jesus players graduate. None of us fan have any bragging rights over teams that are good but thank the good lord above that these guys graduate. Fuck that shit.

well, 0-2 and not looking good at all
this looks like a throw away season

Freeman was so great last year; was that a fluke?

But most of all what bothers me is where our strength of last year is now a weakness

Our O line was supposed to be great and is mediocre at best

Our DL was supposed to be good and is not

After the high of last season this really hurts

Dude we’re all upset but we literally beat 2 iconic and “serious” programs in the playoffs just one year ago - we aren’t some other-ran rinky dink program and it’s stupid to claim that. Yeah things aren’t going how any of us want right now, but with what we lost especially from a leadership perspective - combined with a stupidly front loaded schedule, a tough start to the year was always possible.

Now if Marcus doesn’t punt chris ass into the sun, I’ll agree we have a real problem. But just take a breath for now and don’t give yourself an aneurysm

Anyone who said Ash was a good hire was just trying to convince themselves. In no world did that hire make sense. Wasn’t he unemployed at the time?!? That’s never a good sign
Yep. The thing is, everyone gave him the benefit of the doubt in the spring. And then when they got through that, the vibe among veterans was just "I don't understand why we're changing things." There were a LOT of warning signs, but until you actually see live bullets you never know what to believe.

I think we all wanted to give Freeman the benefit of the doubt. As Lax pointed out in another thread, Freeman got started on this hire late in the process because of how late the season ran. I can’t imagine Mickens would be much worse.

Maybe it would be better to wait. Most need to decompress & sober up before calling for firing the coaching staff & trashing all the players.
I do not drink, I want to fire Ash immediately. I'm generally pretty level headed with that kind of stuff and am not a doomer. I'm not even dooming now, but I've watched enough football to know this guy sucks. DO I expect Freeman to fire him now? No, he'll wait until we make Arkansas look like the 07 Patriots. But this guy is honestly maybe worse than Geraldino Porker.
