I’m just going to point out something, take it however you want.
There are currently 7 teams over .500 and 7 teams that are .500 or worse in the conference. We are 0-1 against the first group and 5-0 against the second group.
We missed the best 4 teams in the west and have so far only played one of the other 3 top teams in the east.
If we lose the next 2 we will be 0-3 against teams with a winning conference record and 5-0 against the bad teams. That means we are the most average team in the conference.
If we beat ODU and lose to JMU it means we are the 5th or 6th best team this year.
To me, being between the 5th and 8th best team in a 14 team conference isn’t close to acceptable. If we don’t win the next two it will be another blah, useless, wasted season.
Always moving the goal posts on coach huff. Look at the pre season predictions on here by all you Nick Saban wannabes. Losses to Appy coastal etc. etc. We are a colossal collapse by Marshall from having our only 2 losses being against Va tech a game we were in the whole game, and Ohio state who has a good chance at winning the national championship.
Very few of our resident Saban had Marshall with one loss and a great chance at winning the division with 2 games left. Now it’s well we haven’t beaten anybody in our conference that’s good but ODU and JMU are? Who decided JMU and ODU were world beaters? The same JMU team that put 70 on unc put 13 on Gardner Webb. Also they lost to ULM, a team we beat. I think huff has had a lot to prove this year but sans the Ga Southern game he’s done well.
I’ll admit it I wasn’t thinking we were going to do much this year. After Ga Southern I thought he may be regressing. But he completely righted the ship. Is he a great coach?, no not yet, but he’s definitely getting better. If he wins the next 2 I think he will have done a remarkable job this year dealing with the roster turn over etc. But something tells me even if he wins the next 2 many of you still wont give him any credit and you will move the goal posts further to try and discredit him.
I don’t know why I’m surprised we have people in the soccer thread criticizing Coach Grassie as he prepares Marshall soccer for yet another NCAA tournament appearance. I mean the guy has only kept us ranked in the top 10 for years, won a national championship, Im sure guys that coached their 12 year old daughters travel team know more than him.
But buck up haters maybe Huff will win the next 2 and the championship game and a bowl and some p5 will come and take him off your plate. So you can find a new coach to hate.
