Curious, what do you have to be optimistic about in regards to ISU football?
Do you enjoy watching ISU's offense, the playstyle, and execution?
I enjoy watching an elite defense, I enjoy watching a higher number of players get the chance to make a career out of playing football than in any other coaching staff in my lifetime. (Surprisingly most on Offense) Even with a disappointing team record and crappy weather, I enjoyed tailgating on Saturday and cheering for this team with those who are passionate about our school regardless of the W-L record.
I have at times really enjoyed the offensive execution and at others scratched my head wondering what we were thinking. I do like our playstyle, when it works, unfortunately we need to figure something else out when we get close to the goal line.
I am optimistic that CMC recruits high character players that truly want to be here and that do not appear on the police blotter after a disappointing result on the field. I am optimistic CMC will make changes, whether they will fix the issues remains to be seen, as he did after the ND pummeling. I am optimistic that CMC will find some key pieces to fill obvious gaps prior to next season just like he found Mevis, X, and Reeder in the last couple of years.
I could continue, however, it appears you have already gone full chicken little so I doubt any of this will alter your perspective.
Loyal Sons Forever True is something I firmly believe in.
