Chad Rinehart.....he was only a soph

This is false......that play is very misleading but if you watch closely the player that caused the fumble actually came from the right side and the DE who scooped and scored was the one who came from the left side.

2 times in my life I've Never thought we could possibly lose at half time....was UNI vs App State 05 and UNI vs Mich State 10.....

The MSU game I would agree with. Appy was showing some great athletes. We had a long field goal, and another FG instead of a touchdown. I didn't feel that we were dominating. Didn't they score just before half-time? I'm a little fuzzy on details by now. (Must have been too much pre-game cheer. It was cold down there!)

Farley's straight up a great coach and person. You guys wanna do it? Apply for the job next time.

Cap'n this might be your best post ever, I totally agree.

1) we lost Chris who not only is a former Panther (but from Waterloo) because he was offered more Money....and Troy Dannen is telling Football there is no more money. Farley is not willing to take lower pay to increase asst pay. 2) Chris doesn't like working with Farley because he is a control freak and prick to work for. Same lines at Nick Saban....

Did I miss something about Farley being approached by Dannen to receive a pay cut to keep some assistant coaches around?

Oh, so it came from a Right Tackle who is a backup in the league...my bad.

Actually, I don't know if Keith played that year, anyone know if that is who it was? All joking aside, we have been really lucky to see some serious NFL caliber lineman at our I-AA school. Talent that many schools would dream of.

Lobdell was the RT that year still proving your point as he had an NFL career as well. I wasn't disagreeing with your point, I just always thought it was a weird play because the DE rushed past the pocket and then came back from the blind side to strip the ball so I always thought it was Chad who got beat until I saw that play again a couple months ago during the FCS playoffs and noticed the DE came from the opposite side.

Re: Haven't seen anything posted here...

Wow, some interesting posts here. A couple of things to remember.

Farley is a defensive coach, thats why the turnover on defense. He is a control person, most college football coaches are. Go to a school with an Offensive head coach, you will see stability on the defensive side of the ball, not the offensive. Unless of course you are at a "destination job."

For those of you that think Farley isn't a factor in these defensive coaches leaving you have got to be kidding me. It is well known that Farley is controlling, and tempermental. With him being one of the handful of coaches with an all time winning record in the playoffs, I will put up with it.

For those of you that think we are winning in-spite of Farley, please see 1997, 1998, 1999, and 2000. Also, please look at a better playoff winning percentage than anyone in school history.

For those of you that think Farley will never win a NC, he might not, there are thousands that never do, but, is it Farley's fault that a starting NFL offensive lineman got beat on a pass rush in the 05' NC Game only to see the greatest QB in our programs history (a QB that Farley got to WALK ON) fumble our NC away? No.

For anyone who thinks that Farley has ANYTHING to do with in game play calling with the exception of "punt," "go for it run," "go for it pass," "kick it," "fake it," "etc..." are crazy. He knows and understands a fraction of our offense.

I know, I come off as a Farley apologist, maybe I am. I also know that I would be blind to think he wasn't a little arrogant and rubs people the wrong way. It could be worse, he could be Mike Dunbar and have turnover on both sides of the ball every year...

In case this hasn't been pointed out, the DE who beat either Rinehart or Lobdell also plays in the NFL. Both DEs from Appy State play (or at least played) in the league. One is Murrell for the Jets, who took playing time away the last couple of seasons from Vernon Gohlston. Gohlston was a former #1 draft pick, and was All Universe when he was at Ohio State.

We had two OTs on that team spend time in the league. Appy State had two DEs who did the same. Talent like that doesn't grow on trees at the I-AA level, and it takes it to make the run to the NC game. If you're going to get beat, at least have it be by an elite player at that (or any) level.
