Re: Fire Farley

Certainly, but my point was that the HC candidate's enthusiasm for the job could be diminished if he had cause to think the AD might then fire the assistants he had brought in. If I as a HC am accepting responsibility for the W-L record, I want to be the person hiring and firing my own assistants.

I understand. But it's not unheard of for an AD to have a say whether an assistant coach should stay on. Much like a GM in pro sports would have a say in the fate of the team's assistants. If I'm an incoming coach, I'm not worried about that. If you win, there's a lot more job security than if you lose. Specifically at UNI, assistants have had quite a bit of job security from coach to coach - especially if they were alums.

Re: Fire Farley

Bailey at wr or rb. There is nothing to think about with him at QB.

The Flea Flicker!

Only if he's the one flicking it back to Dunne. No halfback or wide receiver passes via Bailey please

Re: Fire Farley

It would make sense to put Bailey in at QB on occassion when they're inside the 5-yard line. While it most likely will be a run, the defense will have to figure out who to key on and Bailey can either take it in or option it out to Smith or Malloy. The key for Bailey is to make sure the play moves forward, not him rolling out and scrambling backwards while looking for a receiver to throw to and risk a sack.

Wrong. That run only offense worked awful inside the 10

Re: Fire Farley

Only time Bailey was effective was against horrible teams.

Re: Fire Farley

I just wondered to myself how on earth did UNI not do better with David Johnson on the team.

I seem to recall a certain game in Ames in which UNI did pretty well with David Johnson.

Re: Fire Farley

We lost to a better team tonight, and I would say tonight our coaches put us in position to win, two very poor reads by Eli and too many missed tackles

Re: Fire Farley

We took a to in THIRD QUARTER to kick an extra point. I don't think thats coaching thats putting you in a position to win.

Re: Fire Farley

I think the dropped passes cost us the game.

I love how our receiving corps is developing. But we had 4 or 5 drops on catchable balls that probably turn that game.

Not sure I'd say NDSU is clearly better team. Their run game is better. We have some advantages as well. As Farley said, they couldn't cover us.

We're very young at skill positions but damn we've got some players.

We also kicked an extra point in the fourth quarter because we had a five yard penalty. The right play was still to go for two from the 8, imho.

The coaching staff needs to focus solely on picking up disgruntled FBS o-linemen who can play from day one in 2017. We have skill position players to spare.

Re: Fire Farley

Farley split that big freshman class from last year and played about 10 of 30 this year. He's got a number of really good looking players from that class we haven't seen yet.

Isaiah Weston is another WR he was debating on playing this year up until game 1. Also have Nick Fossey out of Lakeville who looks like a big target.
