Most of this is just stubbornness. He wants to win his way so bad, it's turned into him vs everyone else and he wants to be right....he wants to be right rather than do what needs to be done to win.

I think he started reading his own press articles. It's not good, everyone can see it but him. I feel bad for him honestly, he's being blinded by something.

He SO badly wants to be as conservative or more conservative than his hero Kirk Ferentz. It makes me sick to my stomach how stubborn and conservative he is. Don't go out there and try to win the game... just try not to F up. Such a loser mentality. All our guys play scared too death of messing up... and that causes them to mess up.

Might have to do a '17 style shift like they did with the defense some how.
Really should have done it in the off-season, hope they laid some groundwork for it. Not sure how young that defense was.

This really does feel like the end of the rhoads era. Matt has got to hire an outside OC this year.
He could hire the hottest OC out there. Isn't going to help cause the new guy comes in and he says .... hey I know I promised you full control of the offense and I'll just stay big picture.... but I lied. Welcome to Ames, it's a nice town. Now here's how this whole thing is going to work.

Why would Ferentz be his hero?

He literally tries to run the same style. Winning games by ball control, smash mouth running, a stout defense and disciplined football. Campbell however sucks at all the above except stout defense.

I thought it was Manning but its apparent that is not the case. Its on CMC.

That guy is definitely being a loser. There is a difference between yelling that in the stands and yelling it right next to Campbell. The latter is across the line imo.

With that said, it is not usually a good sign of the mood around the program when players have to stop their coach from confronting a fan.
