Re:Time to Pull the Plug - Sunday, October 12, 2008 2:43 PM
Yeah I have no credibility even though I called this way back in June, on no, actually it was MARCH according to your signature, thanks for keeping that for historical records. This season is playing out as the total disaster I predicted while everyone else was saying, "Oh we will win 9 games! If not than at least 7!!!! BARWIS!!! WHOO HOO SPREAD!!!!!" Yeah that has worked out.

Yeah they are Carr's players, well at least the ones that Rich didn't run off, maybe there was some truth to what Boren said, I mean I don't remember Bo, Mo, or Carr ever calling his team soft at a press conference, and you know what? You bring back last year's staff we beat Toledo. We beat Utah. We beat Notre Dame. We are sitting at 5-1. But all we would hear is "Carr needs to go! We got whipped by Illinois! He got out coaches by Zook! ZOOK!!"

The biggest thing/scariest thing that speaks directly to how good or bad Rich is as a coach? There has been ZERO improvement from the team. NONE. They are not any better than they were against Utah. 7 weeks later, 6 games later, and the team is still the same, they have made NO strides at all. A team is suppose to get better as the season moves forward, coaches talk about getting better every week. Where have we gotten better? QB play? No. RB play? I'll give yah Sam, but he refuses to play anyone else. No Tight Ends except Koger 5 times a game. O-line? Swiss Cheese. D-line? Got dominated by Toledo. Secondary? Still getting torched. Turnovers? Still happening every single game.

However Rich does continue to rewrite the record books. Lets see, so far we have seen the first loss to a MAC team ever. Worst home record in years. The worst start since 1967. I'll say that again, worst start since 1967. First year without a bowl game in 33 years. First losing record in 41 years. First time we will not have a 1,000 yard receiver in forever. Don't worry, there are still plenty of other records Rich will break this year.

Also, does anyone know-has Michigan ever lost to Notre Dame, Michigan State, and Ohio State all in the same year?

Some natives beginning to get restless. This is of course followed by the tired "those who stay will be champions" crap, but there is a vocal minority that are beginning to voice their displeasure.

I noticed and have to ask... does anyone notice how similar scUM fans are to ND fans? They both whine and whine when they are losing. Over the top expectations are ubiqutous before the season. Regardless. Delusions of grandeur are common, as are excuses on top of excuses. Amazing.

It truly is amazing to me that that guy is among the minority. Most of their delusional fan base still believes that they may win 5-6 games...Honestly I see them maybe winning two more, and IMHO that's being very generous.

It brings a tear to my eye...NOT! :biggrin:

One guy from Toledo caught 20 passes yesterday. You'd think that after 15 or 16 somebody might realize that he should get some coverage.

Central Ohio's Nick Moore, a Westerville South graduate and the younger brother of former Toledo Rocket, current New Orleans Saint, Lance Moore.
