I have yet to freak out. It is not like I go to the fridge, crack one open and start to cry after watching the Gopher football team "plays" the game. I have watched too many games, including the blowout Nebraska game to consider this anything but a regular season. My beef is with you regular high amplitude posters who blow the program up in the off season and then defend the ineptitude during the season. My beef has not just been with the way Kill coaches, or the team plays, but how guys like you enter the land the Gophers forgot and start chortling about how great things will be if we just wait a while. The tsunami hit your house, killed everybody, and you guys bring out the cameras to take family photos because it is such a Kodak Moment. Joey ain't going to grow up. The two by four blasted through his skull and he won't be playing catch with you tomorrow.
Wisconsin plays freshmen and starts them as well. Iowa plays freshmen and starts them as well. Purdue played freshmen and starts them as well.
I am sure you are a very bright and reasonable guy. But when it comes to prognosticating the team, well, it comes across as know-it-all and frankly quite stupid. I haven't called anybody a troll, lately, am I am not going to start with you. I feel for you. I understand your pain. I am not the problem. Although it does feel good to kill the messenger of bad news, the general that lost the war is over at the Bierman building putting together the next best way to get crushed right now. You want someone to lambaste, start where it all begins, with the coach. We are 1.5 with some notable heavy weights coming our way. I saw this coming very early. I started looking at the roster and the recruiting results. They are a bust. When I saw that, I knew these guys were over their head. They have been mailing in their work and for all their working hours, I bet most are wasted and pointless. Wasted and pointless because of the regression that has occurred. In the offseason, I would venture an estimate that the positive posts were 60-1. When I began posting that his recruiting wasn't great, the vast majority condemned my minimalist analysis as meaningless and worse. But, the grain of truth persists on his ability to get the job done. So, when the season rolled in, I began to see how awful the team defense and offensive scheme looked against other teams. The kids didn't look prepared. They didn't look like they wanted to play the game. Well, I posted that here. And, the positive posts went to about 50-10. A few more games, and it was 30-30. Now, it runs about 15-45. Not only am I on the side that can see the fact from the fiction, I invite you one last time to describe where the improvement has occurred in the last 6 games. Frankly, if you know why you're not an asshole, and I am the asshole, I really want to know by defending Kills performance to date. What has he done that stands out as a positive?
I am ready to read anything anybody tries to sell on this board. I am not going to scurry off and pout in the corner. I'm not trying to hurt your feelings or make you cry, not that I would predict that I could. All I want is your honest analysis instead of the crap you stated above.
