How did we get this bad this quick?

I was thinking the same thing but didn't want to be the first to post.
I'm no expert, and I'm not usually negative. But Holliday is too conservative. Legg is not a good coach. Heater is beginning to look like a bad coach. Curraj is not a good field goal kicker, obviously. Litton is no Cato. Finally, it looks like we are back to sucking on the road. That about sums it up for me. If we don't at least go to a bowl game and finish 7-5 or better, someone needs to be fired.

1)Selective schedule to protect the record.
2)A weakened CUSA conference which hid a lot of things.
3)The over statement of Doc's recruiting ability
4)Doc is not a good coach and does not have good assistant coaches.
5)The chicken's have come home to roost. You can't have this much attrition and maintain stability

3 guys in coverage, one should have broke on the ball and had an int and they all watched one guy go up and get a TD. Wow
Litton again can't move the ball, staring down Clark so hard he let a guy sack him from 10 yards out shits laughable
I feel like I've done nothing but watch game footage of North Texas for 3 straight hours.
nah, they had 5 total rushing yards against MTSU... maybe practice film...definitely not game film....
Whelp, figures this about does it, D can't stop anything, O can't do anything but throw to one receiver. F it, done with these kids and coaches this year. Had about all I can stomach, this is really uncalled for.
We weren't good last year either. It was just masked by the easiest schedule in the galaxy.
This is the worst defensive front 7 and offensive line play we've had in a long, long time. I can't remember these units as bad as this.
Clock ran off 30 seconds after Clark went out of bounds, McManus refuses to adjust and come back to the ball then we hit a miracle deep ball
Xavier Gaines needs to get a shot, hope we aren't bound to Litton kids just not it
only 3 guys rush... sack.............................and not a coverage sack either. a sack within 4 seconds.....
But, wait, we have constantly been told that we have a real "genius" as an O line coach, so how can your statement be true????
Heater is in a bad situation because the secondary cant cover anyone. If Heater doesnt drop more guys back in coverage to help the secondary they get torched on big plays.
"We scored 65 against Morgan State and it could've been more...can't believe you Marshall fans complaining about a win!"
Where did the Super Fans go? I need them to tell me how we're going to be just fine.

I'm so disgusted that I can't sleep, so I might as well add my two cent's worth. Sooner or later, every football program reaches a plateau. We're there! Kinda reminds one of Don Nehlen's waning years...
It's 3 a.m.here in Kenova and our boys are back. I just heard their jet hit reverse thrust at Tri-State Airport. At least they've landed safely.
This team is an enigma. Every year, I have faithfully went to the national signing day party. Walking out of the one this February, I remember thinking how much better the talent was than when Doc first got here. Obviously, we are in a serious retooling year.
One and four will be hard to overcome. Even if we do make a miraculous recovery and go to a bowl, it will now be a minor one against a lower Sun Belt or MAC team and I've already made up my mind to stay home this time
We have the nicest Indoor Practice Facility -- particularly when considering a school at at this level -- in the country. I proudly show it off to visitors from out of town; the Louisville people couldn't believe it! It's only been completed a year, but it should be of great benefit for future recruiting that must play toe-to-toe with the great schedules that Mike H has put together.
I like Doc, and I think he has able assistants and coordinators. But they all are too conservative -- you play to win! Either their system is too complex or our kids are not very smart. Probably a combination of both...maybe they'll absorb it in time. And if I ever see another Bill Legg bubble screen called, it will be too soon for me.
We were told that this year would be something special: Best O-line ever; improved talent in the linebackers; strength & conditioning gains by leaps & bounds, etc., etc. So far, we certainly haven't seen it.
No enthusiasm or chemistry whatsoever. If you were at Pitt in person, you could see from the opening kickoff that our kids were still asleep on the bus.
Dating back to Travon Van and the kid who fumbled away the WVU game at the goal line (he should never have been put in that situation), there has been, with few exceptions, constant turmoil in the backfield. Devon Johnson was the only bright spot and he only played that position two years. Pittman is a captain one game, doesn't see a play the next. Hyleck Foster -- billed as the next Tommy Shuler -- is not utilized in the slot underneath. Let's hope that Davis and Anderson will show some consistency in time.
The secondary -- another great projection -- has been deplorable. Through five games, they have minimal interceptions. Poor ole No. 3 couldn't cover my grandmother. And she passed away in 1960. Play the ball, son! You can't tell me he can step in for a departed Tyquan Lang.
Now, I'm for Doc's discipline -- you've got to have it. You can't condone criminal behavior and it is necessary to mold leaders and develop fine young men. But you can't run off two four-stars in the defensive backfield, a four-star wide receiver and numerous others and expect to remain competitive. Everything -- injuries, whatever -- is camouflagued in a veil of secrecy.
And I don't blame Doc for being thin at quarterback. The two that bolted wanted to play, and you can't fault him or them for that. I even see where Cole Garvin stepped in and had a great game. Shame on those of you who criticized young Garet Morrell, who was thrown into an impossible situation against the then No. 3 team in the country.
But Litton has turned into a head case. He looks and acts like him on the surface, but a Jim McMahon he's not. Very disappointed in his generalship: maybe he should go back to wearing #14. I know he helped bring in Clark, but he needs to look to the other receivers as well. And where's the slants across the middle? We are very easy to scout.
In the game last night, I constantly saw him being coached up on the sidelines by Mirabel. I thought he was the offensive line coach? Yes, it's time we invested in a quarterback specialist. Are you listening Chad Pennington? That might just be the shot in the arm the program needs!
