Rutgers vs Howard / GAME THREAD
- Thread starter Tango Two
- Start date
We're paying twice as much for Ash as we did for Flood. Of course we have to believe we didn't blunder on the coaching hire. I think this guy can coach just fine when he has top flight talent. But he has no game plan when it's substandard. I think that's what happened in his time at Arkansas too.
Only buffoons that have never played or don't understand football even mention coaching as the issue with this team.
They are simply small, slow and not that talented overall.
And, have an atrociously bad starting QB who is not good enough to start at Kean.
Flood ruined the program since he did not recruit well.
Also, guys like Boggs, Stephenson would be making a big difference out there.
RU is simply a very bad football team right now.
A 1 or 2 win season but Ash will recruit better players and improve, give it time.

At this point we have to hope this year's poor performance doesn't affect recruiting, especially with our current class. We need them to start building a foundation.
What's field goal range for us? the 10 yard line?
but we don't, so a good coach should adjust the scheme to the talent he has. Not sure why Grant isn't on field as much as possible
throw it away on 3rd and 2? (20 seconds in half)
I know we all want to see a different QB next half, but experience tells me we have 30 more minutes of CL.
JG is saving our bacon.

Does Laviano have the arm to get it to the end zone
This team was screwed with Carroo leaving. What's going to happen to next year's when Grant is gone?
This team was screwed when Flood couldn't recruit for shit.
any coach can do great with top flight talent. The mark of a great coach is what he does with what he has which is what happened at Ark and is happening here. This team looks lost
Of course his missed it. Not even sure why I'm still watching
At least the RU unis look good. Can you imagine watching this horrible play with RU in the red pajamas?
a strategic retreat from your original opinion is very wise, a good adjustment
all of these guys would have been prized howard recruits... so we should be beating howard
God our kickers just atrocious. Ash has to recruit a damn kicker. He has the schollies, there has to be one worth a scholarship.
from OSU yes but that is not what is in question
you know exactly what he's saying
Ash sucks
I'd say Howard recruited/developed kids better than we did. Truth hurts.
And there should be an ABC News investigation on what evidence of war crimes, FCC and other human rights violations does Laviano have on TWO coachimg staffs.
You have to give someone else a chance to show what they can do. VS HOWARD!!!!
Enough with the talent argument. We're tied with a team that doesn't even get a 2 star player. On paper we have vassssstly more talent than this opponent. This unfortunately is on coaching, plain and simple. Let's just hope Ash is the type of coach that improves his team each and every week
The throw away on 3rd and 2 is vintage cl. Back foot throws, takes a loss that removes from fg range, no real playmaking ability- cue the slyker gang to tell us how important winning the job ' in the summer" is and all that three staffs have concluded based on non game performance.
BTN guys asking themselves "what happened to the team we saw at camp?"
8-19 for 88 yards in a half. Needs to sit.
Agreed. Only problem is will he (or any other coach in this situation) will be given the time needed?
I won't blame Flood for the way RU looks against Howard so far.
They shouldn't be in the game like they are even if Flood ruined recruiting, considering the Bison's are a FCS program and Rutgers is in a FBS P-5 Conference.
It looks like, so far, Flood might not have recruitedP-5 talent but the talent he recruited should be able to beat a HCS program .
Using Flood for the way RU is playing in the 1st half isn't a valid excuse.
This is on Ash and his staff.
That said, I think they'll get it together in the second half.
But my eternal optimism has taken a hit and not so sure that Rutgers will
be competitive against the better programs and might struggle against the lesser ones unless Ash and his staff start righting the ship better than they have so far.

if you truly believe we dont have a talent issue i dont know what to tell you.
exactly...and people not realizing this just shows how dumb our fanbase is.
These "prostyle" players were getting steamrolled by everybody good in Big10 play and everyone has forgotten that already after 1.5 games?
on paper is the key to your premise, but on the field is all that matters
