Re: Fire Farley

I believe that he missed a good portion of another year (if not the entire year).

No.

He is a 4th year senior.
Has played less than 30% of this season (27.272727272727272727% to be exact).
He qualifies for a medical.

Thanks. Is that quantified by snaps, quarters, minutes on field, etc?

Also, not a big shock he didn't redshirt as a true FR. He was projected as one of the top ILBs in this years' draft. Guys like that stand out at the FCS level, and whoever found/signed him from NDSU deserves a big bonus.

Based on games. I'm not sure if a game is considered one play, one half, or what but I believe one play counts as a game

A good reference just happened last year. Drew Ott played in:
-the final 5 games as a true freshman
-every game as a sophomore
-every game as a junior
-as a senior year played in 4 games - full game vs Illinois State, less than 1 quarter against Iowa State, a handful of snaps against Pitt and some vs North Texas.


Deluca is from Omaha - as is Easton Stick and RJ Urzendowski. It was between us and NDSU for Stick, he chose NDSU because he went to HS with RJ and knew Deluca. Imagine what could have been if we'd recruited Omaha better.

His appeal was denied as he had played in more than 30% of the season - 33% to be exact. Had he sat out any of ISU, Pitt or North Texas he's playing this season.

Re: Fire Farley

I'm really disappointed that the offense didn't score yesterday.

Re: Fire Farley

For us "glass half full" people, our special teams didn't give up a touchdown either!

Re: Fire Farley

Please.....you hired Mahaffey as OC with only grad assistant experience. Best years were when Kleiman was on staff

[BCPanther]

Re: Fire Farley

Mahaffey is OC in name only. Nothing will change until Farley is gone. Today swayed me....

Mark Farley must go.

Re: Fire Farley

UNI is last in the MVFC in passing offense, passing efficiency and red zone offense. We're bottom 3 in nearly every offensive category.

First off...Coach your OC blows. I wish he didnt... but the numbers don't lie.

Secondly...Farley has called Eli Dunne a "draftable" QB...or that he will be before he's done.

If I were last in passing in the league and sitting at 2-3, I'd probably get my "draftable" QB some snaps.

Because surely I can't ignore the facts and just keep doing the same thing and hope it'll suddenly get better...as the rest of the league gets more tape on how to beat my anemic offense. Right?!?!

Re: Fire Farley

This isn't Salmon. This is Farley being a massive control freak and not allowing anyone to run an offense without him having veto power on every play call.

Joe Davis got fired because he wanted to go too fast and Farley wouldn't have been able to make a decision on every play. He also makes every personnel decision.

It's over guys. This program can't get any better until he's gone.

I agree...... but... there's a lot of risk of the program getting worse with new leader.

I agree with that. However, we have a pretty well connected AD with a football background. I feel okay about David Harris making the choice...

Re: Fire Farley

I don't think we can stick with the status quo just because there's a chance it could get worse. I'm on board with this thread, and the only way I would change my mind is if we go undefeated from here through the playoffs. Even then, I would still be on the fence. JMO.

Re: Fire Farley

What bothers me is Farley is such a defensive guy, so if anyone would recognize an inept offense it would be him, but yet he still allows this to continue. We also don't have a special teams coach and look at how bad we are on special teams. It's not just players under performing, this is a failure on an organizational level to help our program succeed.

Re: Fire Farley

Finances in our football department have changed a lot over the past several years. A lot of what we want and a lot of our problems come from money being taken away from football. Scholarship money for offensive linemen and kickers. A budget to pay for a special team's coach. We need more financial support there but it's also hard to gain that support when the team is floundering.

But yes -let's go back to a true quarterback system, please.
