High school has a running clock in football (2nd half) and this year basketball has added running clock for the regular season. the quality of high school athletes is not what it used to be. it is difficult for the mid majors and lower to get good players.

Would need a supreme effort to win any of the final four. Looking at a 1-6 spring, 2-8 fall. If we lose all 4, Coach Phillips 3-14 first two seasons is pathetic. Pelini didn't leave the program in this bad of shape.
We are slow, small and lack athleticism other than McLaughlin. On another note, why did he disappear the final part of the fourth quarter on Saturday?

Sure he did, we were 2-6 in conference his last year, and things were not looking optimistic towards the end.

Tressel, Heacock (obviously,) Wolford, and Pelini inherited rosters with way more talent than what Phillips has to deal with.
With the exception of a handful of transfers, all of our seniors, juniors, and sophomores are Pelini's recruits. Honestly, would any team in our league want many of these players? My guess is just one, Becker, but only if he was healthy. Again excepting the transfers, all of Phillip's recruits are freshmen (the covid winter did not count toward eligibility.) It is way too early to evaluate his abilities as a recruiter.
Playing in this league without quality upperclassmen is a prescription for disaster. That does not excuse poor game preparation and idiotic play designs.
