Superfandom. Which I wonder how you can claim you love Marshall so much and call everyone else to the carpet and yet still support the guy doing harm to the program.
Has everyone not heard? Huff loves it here now. Funny, after ND win its a tough place to live. After he sucks and everyone wants him fired (except Perkins) he loves it here."Huff just needs just one more year. . ." to add to the extensive list he and his wife have compiled on why and how it is "hard to live in Huntington"!! With that done, they will look at each other for a few seconds, and then grab junior and head out of town VOLUNTARILY, for parts unknown!!!
As former Presidential candidate ole H. Ross Perot commented, "Problem solved!".
I believe you’ll see 1, 2, 4 & 5 happen no doubt….as far as #3 goes I believe you’ll see that but also with another portal QB come in as well. But have to have at least 1 of those 3 separate themselves to handle the reigns and be a leader….
And this is what really pisses me off, the BOG and Athletic Committee fell for his smooth talk and ego - hook, line and sinker. They failed miserably with this choice.
Technically that is correct. Only one of our FCS wins counts. However a bowl can make an exception to that rule i am pretty sure.
If only there were in place an organized chain of command. Someone who was a professional and career employee who knows about athletics and not just some well-meaning but part time amateurs. They could call the position the “Athletic Director”.
Word on the street is that Huff doesn't like any of the freshman. High probability we'll be rolling the dice on another portal QB.
Why are people so confident in this? And even if it does it's for one season then we're starting over yet again. We're not choosy enough with these guys. We never should have brought Colombi here. There were plenty of warning signs that he was not going to be successful here and before people get all over me for that comment we are looking for a guy that can win us a championship not get to a bowl game. Something Colombi is struggling to do.
If this is true it will be a big mistake... How do you recruit three QBs in the same class and not like any of them?
I can tell you one big reason he isn't interested in developing them and recruiting another HS QB. Huff is interested in doing one thing and one thing only. He wants to win big and do it quickly and then cash out. He's had one foot out the door since he took the job that's why any success he has will fold like a house of cards the second he leaves because this roster will be decimated by filling it with 1 hit wonder portal players.
We will find out next spring. Huff will have a hard time getting a transfer QB with Fancher as the starter. This QB mess started when Cramsey left who recruited all QBs except Colombi who Trickett brought in. Trickett chose to run with Colombi & Fancher. Maybe Trickett can’t evaluate QB talent??
Our past three coaches (Huff included) seem to have/had issues in evaluating QB's. Amazing that programs like MT, WKU, and many others seem to grab some dude every year that works for them.
I don't think Doc's issue was evaluating. It was developing. Cato was a stud, Blake would have been really good had he stayed, and both Litton and Wells were pretty darn talented. The bigger issue is they did not get adequate coaching. Again I will never understand why the most important position on the field doesn't have a dedicated position coach.
And there's a glaringly obvious other reason he was hired. Can't say it on this forum.
In corporate america back in the day it was called the "peter principle."
It's Trickett... Unless it's a pivotal play where we have called a timeout and they have time to discuss it.
Now Auburn will throw a Brinks truck at Lane Kiffin so they can be the third place team in the SEC West every year rather than Ole Miss.
One of my favorite books. You mention that concept today, and the ignorant youth think you are just some old guy talking dirty.
Hugh Freeze...they don't care about his baggage, just win baby!
not really unless of course he fixes the OL issues and the QB issues as well.
True, but it doesn't take a genius to know not to slam your RB up the middle on 8-9 man fronts. When they walk their safeties down to the LoS leaving the entire defensive backfield empty that's primed for a shot. Instead we slam Laborn into a wall.
the reason we do that is, to give us a chance!! We have no chance taking a shot!
Huff won't let any of his coaches shine. Not for long anyway.
