He does too.

 

 Would probably be making millions in the NFL right now

Pretty much. NU is where talent goes to die.

So much this.  CAN SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME WHY WANDALE ROBINSON DOES NOT RETURN PUNTS?

I would rather have Levi Falck back there than Cam lmao

He fumbles all the time. Why do you think this one mistake is so important?

I am sorry but no one can be so bad even if you try your hardest to suck...this team has accomplished the impossible...they have found one million different ways to lose games...frost is an embarrassment and he needs to come out and tell the fans the truth that his team is BAD and stop feeding us BS that this team is close to turning things around. We are no closer to turning this around than we were six years ago. Arguably, Frost is worst than Riley. 

If there is truth that Fleming just up and left, McQuitty's comments, JD leaving etc.....There are problems and disconnects between team and staff....And it's hurting the culture.

Moos is undoubtedly going to force Frost's hand and make him make some changes... but if the first change isn't Frost relinquishing his play calling duties, it'll all be for naught.

 

I sooooo hope you are right on Moos.

That loss wasn’t on Frost. Frost didn’t commit unnecessary hold to erase big gain. Frost didn’t muff punt that would have given us the ball at midfield and Frost certainly didn’t whiff on key pass blocking assignment. Martinez and Robinson deserved to win that game. Teammates let them down.

Farniok would’ve been fourth string and transferred home or never played a down. No way. He just doesn’t have it. 

 

That's possible,  but Iowa does a great job developing their players.

 

We don't  and haven't since Pelini was our coach,  and even then development wasn't as good as what Iowa and Wisconsin do.

We will be better off without Farniok for sure next year. Good god that guy is terrible. 

[Wistrom Disciple]

Not happy with the game's outcome but we're more competitive than many expected. Defense did well enough, gotta get out of all our mental errors.

That's the best game we've played in quite some time.  Same mistakes killed us, but fewer of them.  Still killed us.

 

It's a sucky result, but I'd agree with this. We played better. But not well enough.

[Scott Fraud]

We beat the spread.  2-3 this season!  Congrats to Coach Fraud and his Clowning Staff.

We will not win another game folks. 

 

Might get lucky and get them Covid canceled.

 

Minnesota might be winnable, Purdue will punish us

[Ggodd002]

Coaching changes need to focus on player development geared towards big 10 play and heading to nfl.  Frost’s cocky attitude that his football way would run over the big 10 obviously was BS.   So admit it doesn’t work. Make the changes and bring in the coaches that bring in those players that are good but not good enough for Ohio state.

When the same mistakes from multiple players keep costing us over 3 years,  you have to point to those at the top

But WHY don’t we develop players as well? Isn’t that the coaching staff’s job 1???
