Go Guins, how is it obvious that Mark Waid can play? He was redshirted last year, and his only playing time of significance was against Illinois State, we won that game by running the ball and great defense. His only other offer was Fordham, and that is not exactly a football powerhouse.
Again, I repeat we lost league games by 25, 35, and 39 points. Look at the teams above of us rosters, all young, except for Illinois State which had a huge senior class.
South Dakota beat us by 35, and they return 14 starters, they do need to find a QB, and Hero Sports had them with a top ten recruiting class. UNI, South Dakota State, and UNI are loaded. Southern Illinois got screwed out of a playoff berth. They won 5 straight and won their last five, and beat us by 25; and by the way 16 starters return.
Yes Phillips doing all the right things in the community, that doesn't translate to wins. Were were 2-6 in the conference! This is a rebuild for Phillips, not a reload.
