Don't confuse the Doc Haters/Danny Worshipers (99.9% the same people) with FACTS and LOGIC. To the Doc Haters, MU should win every game it plays, every year, simply by showing up. After all We Are Marshall. The the Danny Worshipers, MU fans should be happy with whatever happens. After all we are just Marshall.
Who has the best change to make the team ???
- Thread starter Herd-nificent
- Start date

Yulee played very good on special teams, but also played 169 snaps at LB in 2018, which was the 6th most. He would have played quite a few more snaps, but he was backup to Hancock and Hernandez, and both of those guys rarely came off the field and were among our best defensive players. Yulee is currently the starting MLB so lets see how 2019 goes before calling him a "bust" or "in the dog house" player.
2nd or 3rd in the east division is pretty good.
Compared to 5th and 6th if you were rooting for Snyder?
I root for Marshall. Marshall should be doing better than 2nd and 3rd or 5th and 6th in the division. I don't care who the coach is.
If you consistently have the top ranked recruiting class in the conference, being in contention for your division really shouldn't be the mark for success.
I would argue that the rankings are fairly accurate and that we generally have better players than the other teams in the conference. I also don't think Doc is a bad coach, he just has one fatal flaw - he doesn't understand game flow, momentum, what ever you want to call it. He just either doesn't have that feel or lacks the willingness to fail in trying to control it. He doesn't seem to know when to, or is just afraid to, seize opportunity.
Personally, I think he understands it, it just scares him. He's always going to play the safe way. If you're up 7 with 6 minutes to go and sitting 4th and 1 on your opponents 40, you're punting. It's the text book play because the odds of the other team scoring a TD starting at their 25, or worse, is under 25%. I'm not one of these guys who believe you always go for it, but you have to feel what is going on, how your team is playing, have a feel for the determination of your line and the heart of your back, or the confidence of your OC to make the right call.
Doc always seems to put his trust in the defense, but never the offense. At some point that has to frustrate the offensive players. Have confidence in them to make a play and break the other team a little more often.

In no way is CUSA tougher for Doc then the MAC that Snyder coached against. CUSA is dog shit compared to the MAC at that time.
Sorry to burst your bubble but Synder never coached in the MAC
