Are we still searching for a 12th game for next year? Any rumors to what that could be?

True. Probably shouldn’t have even engaged with it

I really feel that Freuchte and Olson being forced to be on his coaching staff is untrue. I guess it’s speculation both ways and we will never know what actually happened. I just have a really hard time believing that Schmidt didn’t have 100% say. If he met with him and it didn’t feel like a good fit, you really think Chaves said they had to stay? Very unlikely. Schmidt probably knew that the current offensive players really like Freuchte. After meeting with him, he decided to give it a shot for a sake of continuity and thought they could work well together.

Defending well today

Schmidt quote in the Herald "I think that's the difference. Early in the season, you didn't know where the ball was going. We had tight ends catching balls, running backs catching balls. As the season went along, we got a little more ... I don't want to say predictable ... but we kind of lost a little of our identity."

Unreal considering how well he played last week and against SDSU after Fleming went out

Wiltshire was a Juco guy, could he come back?

It has been said here many times already, but the biggest problem was the play calling on critical downs. How many times did that QB lead play not work in short yardage? How many times on 3rd and 4th and medium did we throw a low percentage deep ball? It also got a little predictable as the year went along. There are some personnel decisions that make no sense as well. Mainly, Ziebarth usage. Can’t believe he couldn’t find a way to get Fleming and Deng on the field together more. Xavier Leigh broke camp as RB1 somehow and got way too much run right away. And then he completely disappears, I think he was still valuable as a 3rd down back.

2009

I wonder if Polasek to Washington State is a possibility

They also have 20 mil in NIL

If Bison lose could have been an easy path to Nashville

I wonder if Freuchte and Olson are seen as a package deal. If one’s canned so is the other?

Will not be tuning in to that one. Will make me more mad than I already am

Can’t wait to see it 2 to 3 years from now with all his guys and the body types he wants.

Stop. We are already ahead of schedule. The fake punt was really bad though

Good play call there. Terrible throw

Nope. You can usually tell the type of play by what personnel is on the field. Need to break some tendencies

We better see Simon next drive. I get that Freuchte isn’t giving Jerry any favors with the play calling, but something has to change

Jimmy Rogers got the Iowa State job. There’s a chance Danny Freund is an OC in the B12.

Sounds like he will handle kickoffs for sure

Along with that, Jerry has been running the ball a lot lately. If the QB is running the ball that much, I’d rather it be Romfo.

If they go with Jerry; I think it has to be the same line of the thinking too. If Jerry’s struggles continue, I think they have to go to Romfo at some point.

I’m seeing the line down to 4.5 in some places

I would start with Kyan Brown.
