Jurgens is "kind of" in year 3.
Neither Piper nor Benhart has been around 3 years. But they are playing ahead of older guys.
So cute phrases like "definition of insanity" aren't accurate.
I mean, most were all over Farniok's play at RT last year, right? A change was made and at times Benhart has really struggled.
I think most rational fans can expect the younger players to make mistakes while they do OTJ training this year. If NU lost games early in the year because of on field mistakes by young players, but those players started progressing throughout the year most rational fans would accept that.
What fans like myself can’t accept is a coach that can’t seem to figure out that deferring on the coin toss is the most basic decision in football. You don’t take the ball in a bad weather game, knowing you will be going against the wind and the offense has been a week point most of the year.
What fans also get mad at is the not adjusting the offense to the personnel currently on the roster. Neither AM not LM can run the passing portion of this offense. They both suck big time throwing the ball. Let go to the I formation, run downhill, olay action pass Rollout and bootleg. Things our RB and QB can do some.
put this offense back in when they get a competent QB.
We would like to see improvement in game management. We would like to see improvement with in-game adjustments. We might be the worst second half team in the country. Usually that is a tell tale sign of coaching adjustments.
on Defense, how many second and third and logs so we have to see being completed before Chin says, oh what we are doing doesn’t work? 3rd and 8 so we give 10 yrd cushions? 3 and 6 so we give 10 yrd cushions, then watch out route for 9 or slant for 12?? Figure it out after 3 yrs.
