Fire Schiano!!!

Oklahoma and Florida State show how hard it is to win in college football. Throw in Oklahoma State who is 0-5 in conference.
Actually 0-6 in conference and for the first time in the Gundy era. They were in the B12 title game last year. This year in last while the team (ASU) that beat them yesterday who was picked for last in the B12 preseason is bowl eligible in year 2 of Dillingham.

As I say, it’s all year to year. It can give hope entering a new year but also you can’t think the good you saw the previous year will carry over to the next.

The defensive line with Konga and Toure not playing has hurt a lot. Could Konga have made a difference in UCLA game? Thanks for correction, they are 0-6.
 
And getting back to Graber academic support was a joke. In 1992 the Brian Sheridan class had 7 out of 21 players flunk out within a year.

When will good come to RU? Asking for some friends.
 
That does not fit my definition of "everyone".
We had some fans here too with lofty predictions, but while many saw 8 wins as a ceiling, people's memories are short, and they fed into the hype. Looked at UCLA as soft. They were and are improving. RU is regressing, but will they be able to turn the tide? That's up to the coaches and players.

Outside of OSU and Oregon anyone can win/lose in this conference. Had our D played like it had first 5 games, we beat UCLA and USC comes down to the wire.

If we can get back to that, we go to a bowl game. If not, we don't. That is how I see it.

GS will get a mulligan if we miss a bowl because of injuries and history here and overall missing Prez and AD. I am OK with that.
 
There are more factors In Indiana's success than just NIL. Coaching has a lot to do with it.
Absolutely this. Upgraded HC and just important upgrades in Staff making huge improvements at downtrodden programs like Indiana, Vandy, UNLV, Sara, etc. Would hope Greg has the ability to make changes to right the ship. Not optimistic based on what we have recently seen and the lack of Player depth returning next season. Not to mention the much more difficult schedule.

Discipline was a joke. Not all his players went to class. You’re not going to be able to succeed in the classroom if your players don’t go to class.

He was not head coach material, because you have to be able to keep tabs on your players. Schiano has a system to do that.

That would NEVER happen under Schiano.

Fans are not wrong about Franklin. My wife and SIL, both PSU grads, want Franklin gone. Even they see he will never get them to the next level.

Outside of McSorley and Saquon, seems like PSU wastes all their offensive talent.

They can want him gone but he’s not going anywhere just like many other coaches because of all the ludicrous contracts that have been given out. 56M still owed to him according to USA Today database.

Plus despite not getting to the absolute top of the sport, they’ll likely be making playoffs multiple times with CFP expansion. I think that should be good enough for awhile. IIRC Franklin would’ve made like 5 or so playoffs if they were 12 teams back from 2014.

PSU has very high standards. We have the opposite, such low expectations there is no amount of losing will get Schiano fired. A competent AD wouldn’t have hired him in the first place, extended him for nothing results, or let him coach after this year.
