FIRE HUFF! What a FU

Agreed! Time to clean house, sad part is this will be a continuous problem with our program. When you can’t pay decent wages for coaching staff/players(todays college football) you either get trash coaches/players or coaches/players using program as steeping stone. ( damn look at WVU, they pay good money and still have a mediocre coach). I remember the glory days when our name was mentioned in the same breath as Boise State, how far we’ve fallen.

Has nothing to do with money. There are P4s with idiots running them too.

Go to the lower levels and hire a winner instead of career position coaches.

We were Boise before Boise. It’s a shame. Having the money and nerve to actually clean the house when it needs it is an issue. We will not ever again play for championships as long as we tolerate staffs whose hallmarks are awful QB play, letdown losses after big wins, losing to MAC teams, and absolutely incompetent choke jobs when leading by multiple scores on the 4th. The program would be just fine if we’d simple win the ones we’re supposed to win. I don’t think any Herd fan would be critical of a coach that accomplished just that. You’d challenge for the Sunbelt each season, win your share vs lower P4 teams (Cincy etc), and knock off a bigger foe from time to time. Coming the the Joan would be what it used to be, a death trap.

The focus of evil in the sports world, ESPN, wants that particular "little engine that could" storyline to remain in one place. It was us once, it was UCF, now the evil doers at ESPN want you to think it is perpetually Boise. It isn't.

Anyway, it certainly isn't us. Remember "this isn't a rebuilding". The failed cabal that went around the AD and hired this unqualified guy. The failed AD that now keeps him around, despite his results being "unacceptable". And the failed coach himself, although one cannot really blame him, he is pulling down large cash from a boss who doesn't expect results, take it as long as you can.

Now this IS A REBUILDING. 100%. It will take years and years to undo the CH damage to this program and begin to think about contending in the SBC, let alone reach the levels of the past. And that assumes the AD even gives a darn about winning, or has a clue about how to pick a winning coach if he does care. Nothing this failure has done so far gives me any illusion that CS cares if we win or lose, or has the ability to make the changes needed if he does.

But we never run out of Pepsi.
 
If huff was fired because the dumb ass should be how many pinko sorry ass people will cry he was fired because of his race? That has nothing to do with it

Well if I hadn’t watched us lose to eci 4 years ago I never would have believed it possible

As time marches on, and my roots sink deeper in Iowa after my time in WV, I really have grown in my affinity for Iowa State. But I try to watch the Herd if the games don't collide with Iowa State. And I've watched most of the Herd games this year. But last night, I was all in on watching the Cyclones whooping up on the 'eers, which was on at the same time as the Herd.

With that said, the ISU/WVU game had a lot of long drives on the ground, and the game got over quickly. So I turned over to the Herd/GS. 6 minutes to go, and up by 12. Cool, I'm gonna get 2 wins tonite in my fandom.

WTF was that? I'm not a big "fire the coach" guy, but that was one where I don't know if you can recover from. The internal interactions from the team have to be brutal. I don't see a culture where there is personal accountability by the players when looking at the Herd. An outcome like that is not one that builds team unity. You can rally the guys around some fluke Hail Mary that the other team made. Or even if they are just better than you.

But this is one, and I've seen it oodles of times in my sports watching, that teams just end up eating their own. Maybe I'm wrong, but this game was one that is going to kill any amount of player confidence in the coaching staff. Maybe I'm wrong, but I don't think so.
 
At this point I have no idea why you would keep Huff. I think the fact we have a quick turnaround to Thursday night may play a part. But if there is another debacle Thursday night it's time (actually past time) for a change.

He's in the final year of his deal, which means he can't recruit or at the very least is at a major disadvantage in recruiting. He appears to be sabotaging the season with his system and so what you are going to be left with is: a team that is falling apart from within, a ton of exiting transfers (AJ Turner will be first in line to go to a bigger school), no incoming freshman class to speak of, and you're probably coming off a loss in the Northwestern Credit Lenders Spud McKenzie Bowl.

Fire him. If you struggle after that at least you made a move and it shows recruits (and your own players) that you have standards and are looking to hire someone ASAP. Keeping a lame duck coach who is being combative and has no desire to coach here makes no sense.
 
Based on recent results the Tudors offer has been reduced to a limit of one biscuit per day and only with the purchase of a large drink.
I have four years of eligibility.. I might take them up if that stands for me. Pretty good deal. Drink and biscuit for 2.99

Were we really Boise before Boise? Remember they put up a bigger guarantee for a 1-AA semifinal Championship series game when Donnan was the coach and we had to play the game in Boise. They had more money to spend than Marshall even back in those days. FYI: Donnan blew a halftime lead and lost the game.

So Huff is intentionally sabotaging the program leaving it in shambles, so he can go elsewhere and be hired...said next destination would hire him...and ignore that he sabotaged the previous program?

Sam needs to say something, anything on this thread, to remain the dumbest poster on here because you're quickly taking over the title.

Even Boise admitted they followed Marshall's approach to success in football and used it as a blueprint for their own success.
