I am disgusted with myself for buying season tickets.  I really thought they might be decent this year.  What a waste of (lots of) money.  Never again.

I agree with you .... decent year .... hmmm,  however, losing two close games and then yesterday's meltdown, no one should be satisfy that we have lost 3 conference games by 14 points...in particular when all conference games yesterday were within 7 or less points (one exception 10 points) ...never say never however if Greg is still around next season I will need to make decision...

And that half-witt Roger Wyland doesn't think Gattuso needs to be on the hotseat. Amazing cognitive dissonance.

Roger is a paid endorser, if he ever said what he really felt ... he would have called his last football and basketball game for UAlbany ... if you read my threads about Roger from the past ... I am not a fan of Roger

Guarantee Gattuso hangs his hat on this to keep himself innocent.

Almost is good in horse shoes and hand grenades, isn't that the saying? 

Gattuso needs to stop hanging his hat on almost. No one cares. And it's not good enough. 

He needs to watch Fast and Furious 1 and live by Dom Torretos moto of 'it doesn't matter if you win by an inch or a mile, winning is winning.' 

The saying isn't 'it doesn't matter if you lose by an inch or a mile, you're still a winner.'

Has anyone started working on www.firegreggattuso.com?

I honestly thought there would be a lot more discord and vitriol on the board towards gattuso and the department, but unfortunately things are way worse than I imagined. We have gone beyond anger and are into apathy. 

There's a thin line between love and hate. Apathy is WAY harder to recover from.

7 stats last in the conference. 3 more second to last in the conference. 

Say what you want about the games being "close" ... the team just isn't good.

Perhaps there is an explanation from today's Times - Union: https://www.timesunion.com/sports/article/UAlbany-football-shorthanded-due-to-COVID-19-in-16521991.php

Yep and if Gattuso even starts to mutter something about "well we were close" someone needs to slap him upside his dome piece immediately.

Yeah, it's COVID's fault...

You didn't know? COVID couldn't enter Rhode Island. That's why they are 5-0. Duh. I thought it was common knowledge...evidently Gattuso is the only one who knows that.

So, apparently the team had at least Mine Grey and Roy Alexander out due to Covid Protocols.  2 of top 3 receivers.  Frankly, doesn’t change the game as I don’t see us losing due to receivers being out. 
 

When asked why he started Carino, Coach stated some things are out of my control as a football coach.  When asked if Undercuffler is healthy (since he travelled and dressed) he got defensive and said he wasn’t going to get into this stuff.  
 

He did follow up with "We trotted out everybody we could today that was able to play. We just couldn't get it done." 
 

so, if JUC is not healthy, why not just state it.  What’s the huge secret.  This is the crap I don’t get.  It’s a Division 1 football team.  Either your star QB is injured or, for the time being, you are unhappy with his play and you wanted to spark the team with the backup.  Or JUC committed some team violation. Either way, it’s not the end of the word.  
 

what’s the big Binging deal.  Spit it out.  

Possible the small dog benson told gattuso to bench him?  But, I wouldn’t think benson has any teeth.  Maybe he’s trying to ‘gum’ gattuso into submission.
