I'm not

 

I'm sure you're not... The next savior has arrived. Until he's not... Just like VT, Brunson, Sussman etc. And when this kid fails... In part because gg in year six still can't field a decent oline, you'll peddle the next savior. 

 

It's what you do... Move goalposts just like Benson and Gattuso. 5 year plan is now a 7 year plan. Should be upgraded to a 10 year plan next year. 

Question for you... What do you expect in terms of wins next year? What will it take for you to finally say, not good enough?

I liked what I saw from Undercuffler the end of the season.  If they can somehow fix the offensive line I could see him excelling but that is a BIG if. It can happen though.  Look at the NY Giants, they picked up a new RG and it has changed their whole offensive line play and the last two games Eli has had time, played well, ran the ball well and they won.  You never know what can happen next season.  Do I trust Gattuso to get it done?  Absolutely not but if they improve that line, I think Undercuffler has the skill to be good in this conference.  None of the others you've mentioned showed what Undercuffler showed the last several games. He has a good arm and mostly makes good decisions.  We will see.

Time to stop putting words in my mouth.  As I have told you  here and privately, I prefer to be positive and look for positives.

Well said.  As we all know great QB's make good coaches.  We have been looking for a QB for a while.  5 different ones in 5 years - not good.

I have seen a lot of freshman play the last couple of weeks, Odekoven had a lot of reps at WR, I saw kids on special teams and Joe Casale getting reps, lots of freshmen have gotten game position experience and have also played on special teams - thanks to the new rule - they still all have 4 years left.  Undercuffler played well the other day.  Burns has not played.  I see him likely leaving, who know.  If not they could both see time next year.  OR they could sign one or mor JUCO QB's and have a competition.  I underestimated Undercuffler's speed.  Thought he was slow as heck but he showed soemthing yesterday.   I will always try to be positive while STILL venting when I see things that I think could be done differently or better.     https://wnyt.com/news/week-10---danes-have-bright-future-with-talent-waiting-in-wings/5149291/?cat=13334

Still gotta be positive.  I actually PLAYED at the school and have purple in my blood!  It kills me more than most of you when they do poorly.   Does no good to just attack the coaches constantly.  Especially when you KNOW he will have at least one more year to improve.  AND again they easily could have been 7 - 4 this year. I know it is the second year in a row but it is what it is. Things happen that are beyond the control of the coaches or the players.   All is not as bad as some of you think it is.  Sorry but I will continue to be positive.

Now back to recruits.  Several lineman have been offered recently.  I thought they would offer more toward the end of the season and they are.  At least a couple of JUCO guys, just like last year.  They also are looking at a few FSB transfers again.

Lol... Two year of its not as bad as it seems as they continue to accelerate the losing. So in short he can go winless next year, play close games and it's all good... Just keep collecting the paycheck. 

 

It's an absolute lie that they could have easily been 7-4...they were outclassed and were lucky to win the two ooc games. They were aweful and complete trash all season. Top to bottom...

 I am just not going to respond to you anymore.  This thread is for recruiting.

Ya missed a big one.  We just snagged Lackawanna’s starting QB.  Many of s great QB has come out of there.   Clearly, they expect some competition.  

Shane McLauglin.  Part of a 20-0 run by Lackawanna.  He is the number 8 rated juco qb in the land.
