It's not about Campbell or me or any of you, it is about ISU and the competitiveness of the B12.
Campbell may be able to win 7-8 games/year in Ames. He may even be able to do it slow ball style like KSU's Snyder or NIU/Minnesota Jerry Kill. Boring as hell. Just boring as hell.
I just got done schooling you that ISU could have had Art Briles or the ND head coach Chip Kelly to which you had zero clue and you're going all full monty on me? An outsider? Rumor was that Kelly was miffed for not getting the job. Made some snide public remarks about ISU after is was all over. So he actually wanted the offer, that implies, doesn't mean he takes it.
I'm saying it's very unlikely CMC survives unless he significantly improves his average player rating. And no, going from .81 to .83 is not significant. Try looking up Allen Lazard's rating and get a class of mostly that and he has a chance. Just a chance.
For all those emotionally invested in this "working" whatever that means for you, I get it. The stats so far don't support it.
If CMC can't win 7-8 games/year while Lazard and Campos are here and can't up his recruiting, he made a mistake or error in judgment taking this job. Won't be the first or the last unfortunately. Go look up ISU FB records.
I'm an Ames native with deep ISU ties, not that that matters one bit. Prove your Ohio three stars can play slow ball and beat Baylor and OU and Texas and TCU - when they're national championship good. You can't.
Oh, and don't forget about KSU, KU Who is out-recruiting ISU because they hired a TEXAS HS coach with Texas connections. They're going to be kicking ISU's *** in a few years, then where will you and Campbell be? Not here. Their Texas three stars will be running downfield while CMC's slow ball guys are gassed and falling farther behind. Hope I'm wrong, but history and recruiting to date say otherwise. There are simply more FB players in Texas, the largest state in the nation than in Ohio.
Know Ohio well. Worked in Columbus the home of Ohio FB. Lived in Austin too, home of Texas FB. They're both weird places. Family in Cleveland, so don't give us that Ohio BS. Iowa boys are tough too, just not enough of them.
You know how when it's family you get to tell the ugly truth, but won't let anyone else do so? Just remember you ain't family. You're friend of an unproven outsider who thinks his plan is better than everyone else who has failed here. And that list included Pop Warner (pt time/advisor), Gene Chizik, Mack Brown, Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll and the extenze man that won a Super Bowl at Dallas. Won't even name him. Do your homework coach and act like a decent human being and show some respect for those who clearly showed up with a gun, tank and howitzer to your knife fight.
Oh, and you suck at coaching. You don't even bother to look up the easy things on the internet before you want to "fight" the "CMC enemy". God almighty, Baylor is going to tear you 27 new a-holes before its all over. And you resort to slander instead. It won't be pscho babble when CMC loses to SDSU. Just wait for B12 play to see the haters hating on me turn on you and CMC like the rabid ill tempered Iowa hound dogs they are.
How's that?
