3 fumbles..poor special team play and we get lit up for 350+ yards passing..down by what 14 in the 4th qtr..and we almost pulled it off. Wells isnt the reason we lost.

The kid made an athletic play at the end of the game, and 9 out of 10 times he doesn't make that play.. But what are you gonna do, thats not the reason we lost last night.

The president, being the previous AD at this school will be able to judge Strollo and determine if he is or is not effective and determine what the best course of action is for the department. I have full faith in Tressel

That's a good point on Tressel.
As for my position, I take the minor sports seriously as part of the whole.
(1) They are attracting real student athletes, not low-performing General Education and Criminal Justice majors (no offense intended for those who really want to be in those areas and perform well, e.g., folks like KP or Liz Hornberger).
(2) We have become one of the top sports schools in the Horizon League, even though we have the lowest budget. Weight rooms are nice, but they don't matter if you can't find coaches and players, and Strollo does that.
(3) It takes years for a coach to build a program and Strollo has provided support within his means. What happened against WIU or ISU was not because of weight rooms, trailers, or scoreboards. We are just reaching the point where we know what W. can and cannot do. can't get there. He fixed a mess but doesn't appear to be able to get to the next level.
(4) Remember even after the WIU loss, W. had strong supporters (e.g., this team keeps getting more wins every year). This is the year to decide about W.--not last year.
(5) Remember in 2012-2013, Slocum was praised for getting his team to the post season. We are just learning what life will be like without KP, and I'm guessing this is going to catch up with Slocum. The fans in the stands are starting to realize that Slocum's win totals are inflated.

For whatever reason this team lacks the enthusiasm needed on this level. Hats off to the Indiana state defense. Wells had very little time to throw all day and they did a great job pressing our receivers all game..we had problems getting any kind of separation. That's something we don't do enough of on defense or maybe just don't have the personnel to do so. Wells was a big part of the wins over S.D.S.U. , S.I., and S.D. and if it wasn't for his 2 4th Quarter drives there wouldn't have been a overtime. I dont think it was the worst play call or throw in the world the defender made a great play end of story-off to N.D.S.U.

Why is it "HIS" 2 4th qtr drives, because they were successful? The people who fumbled the ball earlier got all the yardage in these drives not Hunter. When something good happens it's all him, when he does something bad, it's like it didn't happen or it's everybody elses fault...coaches, players, or that he's a Freshmen. Funny. ::) OT was a new game. Sudden Death. His pick DID cost us the game.

Still have another week left guys. Let's stay positive and support the kids and see what they do against NDSU.
