Same as last week. I at least hoped to see some improvement on the coaching front.

6 quarters of football and it's beyond being a dumpster fire

The air is out of this season already. The excitement gone after just a few quarters

This sucks

My god, how is this team worst than last years...

We lost some on the offensive line.

And, frankly, coaching has not been good. No one will ever believe that Rhoads wasn't the most awful thing that has ever happened to Iowa State football around here, but....

We still have San Jose.

I don't know guys....UNI was a "Liberty Bowl" moment. They had all year to prepare for that game....I would be a defender of this guy if we then went 1-11, but that turd of a coaching performance has me really, really down on this. Burn it all down. Apocalypse Now. Who is now 35 and has Iowa Roots and can coach worth a crap that might want to take over in 4 years??? Bret Meyer? Is Bruns ready to coach? Who will Bret Beliema recommend next.

We only need a Seneca Wallace now.

Odd that during that game, I don't remember feeling like we didn't have a shot. The quality of play from the players back then was good. And we always knew that the coaching was usually not going to leave us in a tough spot. With the game today (and last week) I see a team that is not ready to take the field. And I see a coaching staff that is not accustomed to managing the teams positives and negatives. In fact, I don't see a coaching staff that understands the concept of reducing negatives in order to moderate the game's outcome.

Doesn't matter if he can't coach. What has he shown us so far on that front?

Toledo he had a 70% winning percentage with his schemes and his players. He has crap for bigs for many reasons and none of his making. This is HIS mess now and I'm willing to give him more time than it takes to make a stupid post about his abilities that you're offering up.

Honestly, this isn't far off what I expected....Figured UNI was a coin flip, no chance in this one...you just can't roll out there with this offensive line and an group of linebackers like this and expect much else....Campbelll is pretty clearly overmatched here right now, but I expected that as well, going to take some lumps this year, just no way around it....What the hell did PR think he was going to do with this mess? Amazing how far he drove this thing into the ground the last couple years.

Did anyone else watch our game against Toledo last year? We looked like the better coached team. Just think about that for a while.

I've thought about it. And I try not to think about it.
