Has been reaching through to the dark recesses of the demented thought process this weekend. Who would waste their time trying to convince somebody who’s only agenda is to fire the coaches because they’re still upset that bronco was let go.

So explain to me why it would be “wrong” (🤣) to not share this “factual data”? Explain the moral obligation that

One more turnover by Jake is my tipping point.

I have no doubt that Jake is going to look great against Wyoming

That's why I extended the short leash for 3 games.

IdahoCoug

Then fix the running game. RB was a bigger issue than QB. Adjustments in play

And then what? We go into the gauntlet of Big 12 play where the competition goes

I think you can see the difference between my post and yours. Don't you?

Methusaleh22

Sep 9, 8:48pm

Yes. Mine was more complete and honest. Yours was a cleverly disguised pitch

Cougarbib

Depth caused the losing streak. What do you think they should have fixed

Well then, I guess you're going to get tipped.

3 turnoverless games is your standard?

I fully agree that you would probably overreact like that.

If LJ is out for an extended period, I think GB is the better option at QB
