RU vs Minnesota GAME THREAD :

And yes, Gio looks much better than Laviano.

Posters have theorized before that Laviano may look better in practice because there is no hitting on the QB. However, the huge difference is how Gio handles pressure in live situations much better than Laviano.
 
Gio may not have been ready week 1. It might have taken some time to be ready to know offense and defenses.

Recruits looking at Rutgers before this season were pumped for the coaching staff, as were the fans. I can't speak for the recruits but as a fan I am WAY less optimistic. I still have hope and realize our BEST player is hurt which has made this season harder. But as a recruit, it's got to be natural to question their decision. Good news for many, there will be playing time very early. Let's hope these kids take a shot.

Good players make coaches look better and avg players make coaches look not so good
 
Merheringer needs to go ASAP .His attitude may work at JMU,but not here.
Thing is youth is on his side. Unlike Okruch who has plenty of experience and sucks, it's possible Mehringer just sucks cause he has no experience. Maybe one day he can become a good coach.
 
Missed FG by Minny at 4:15. Lets get some points before the half and make it a game.
 
the positive to take from today to focus on his that we found a QB and that should at least ease the offensive woes going forward. Unfortunately I dont see the defense being able to stop teams consistently enough in games to position the team to win any more games.
 
Another stop - thanks to a personal foul and a poor FG attempt but i'll take it. Now go in and score and it is a new day.
 
We must have the most passive defense in the country. Hardly ever blitz and don't attack. Wait for everything to come at them.
That's the nature of cover-4. Pressure is supposed to come primarily from the front 4.
