Matt Campbell postgame quote

That's why I say ISU is possibly the best P5 football coaching position.
The fans are great by comparison, and the media heat is probably the lowest anywhere.
Great facilities, cool and unique stadium and gameday experience, and gorgeous campus.
Look at you being all reasonable!
I completely agree that changes will have to be made on offense if things don't change pretty dramatically in the next 6 games. And, until last night, I wasn't there.
Can we have our lineman widen their splits?
And can we actually try a jet sweep like twice a game?
Or run the option pitch?
Or do play-action passing from under center?
Quick, somebody tell CMC and Manning about this team called the Kansas City Chiefs.
Maybe watch them and get some hints on what to do against deep safety looks.

What a bunch of rationalizations by a lot of posts here. Good for Coach to call out fans that beat up a freshman kicker. It was absurd what fans said and did.
Also, Coach said the lack of offense is on him. He sits in on all meetings their lack of production is on him - don't blame anyone else. Do some of you not read or listen to the post game?

Say he lets Manning go and Scheelhaase steps in. The first game some wrinkles are thrown in, and the team looks rejuvenated which is great.
Give it a week or two later when the same players are being scouted and things bog down again.
Again I have my own issues with ISU's approach but that included having good players. With the Oline being so bad there's not a lot that can be done.
I'll continue to argue all week that the emotions of the quote are probably good for us. Campbell's pissed. He's smart enough to know that he's not really pissed at the fans. But he just grabbed the first thing to be pissed about and said something stupid.
These are my favorite takes like the personnel available doesn't effect how this goes.
Remember how good Tom Herman looked at Ohio State?
And any of the concepts you're calling for require a run game that the defense has to commit to.
We don't know what was said or did though do we? I'm sure there were some dipshits out there but the fans at the stadium gave him a hell of an ovation last night.
He also said he sees good things and improvement.
CMC is a "coach speak" type of guy. He's a great leader of young men and loyal to his coaches. Maybe almost to a fault.
Klieman let Messingham go last year before their bowl game IIRC, and I think he's a similar type of guy as CMC. Some times changes are needed.
Do you think ISU has the Oline to run these concepts? Or speed out of the receivers?
I think that’s the problem. Even with all the dip ***** on here, there was really nothing that would be considered “frying” him. Don’t make a statement that makes it sound like any real portion of the fanbase had the pitchforks out.
But how many wouldn’t have even noticed if Travis Hines hadn’t latched on to this one line and told them (you) to be offended?
Be offended or concerned if you want I guess. I’m annoyed by the lack of offense but ignoring this quote.
Shut down because people are saying things you don’t agree with…dude, seriously, get a grip.
We are hardly on track for 7 wins- if you think we are, please tell us where those 4 wins are going to come from out of our 6 remaining games? Really- you think we’re going to win 4 out of our last 6? I think maybe you’re the one having the meltdown with reality. We might beat Tech and WVU at home…those are big mights. Then again, I thought those would be easy wins last year too. There’s a real possibility we only win one, maybe two more games this year. We’re right on track for a 4/5 win season, which would be the second year in a row we fall well short of expectations.
Then you want us to be happy that our offense isn’t as bad as Iowa’s- possibly the worst possible offense in the country? Since when do winners take pleasure in not being as bad as the biggest loser? This would be like a hot dog vendor who sells 4” hot dogs bragging that he’s better than the guy down the street who sells the 3” hot dogs. Football is a game of inches (so we’ve been told) and last night and the week before, we brought the 4 incher thinking that it was enough. Jereseib- stop trying to convince yourself that 4 inches is enough, it isn’t.
Never said things shouldn't change or the fans didn't respond positively last night.
We had a lot of people that were complete idiots last week. Good for Coach to call them out.
As I have stated elsewhere, Coach said the lack of offense is on him. He said he is in the meetings that sets the strategy.
