I get what your saying, but there are a lot of coaches out there who could of coached this group of players to a victory today. As I said, part of caching is motivating your guys. There was zero motivation out there after the first quarter. Players were obviously quitting. Thats a coaching problem, not a talent problem.
So you are saying that NDSU had that much better talent? As far as I can tell Rhoads has not been that successfull at the development or the identification of the football players on his team. This is a sad day in Cyclone land.Correct, but winning in major college football is 70% talent -30% coaching. In short, if you can't recruit, you can't win.
If the rumors are true that I've heard in the last couple of days I'm not sure Rhoads can motivate this team. Talked to a couple people that are very connected to some players (Family and HS coaches) and it sounds like the a good portion of the team thinks CPR is an "all about me guy" and are sick of him. They are saying that this also was a part of why Mangino was put in the press box.
Take it for what it's worth but after seeing the demeanor of the team today it did nothing to make me second guess it.
I see what you did there. Your knee jerk reaction and emotions are making you think you are being rational. I think being rational means not being stupid and your thoughts may not have been stupid but definitely not well thought out and irrational.
Right, it's rational to keep a coach on that has this program where it is right now.
The only rational thing to do is keep a coach like that and hope for the best while we are an embarrassment to the state and to the big 12.

I guess that's not really anything new though right? From the business point of view how do you fire a guy that sells out the stadium and hits record crowds consistently? If we sold out every game and went 0-12 I don't know how you can fire that guy. But either way, after one game this year is irrational to fire anyone. Maybe fire the fans for spending money on hope instead of results.Right, it's rational to keep a coach on that has this program where it is right now.The only rational thing to do is keep a coach like that and hope for the best while we are an embarrassment to the state and to the big 12.
If it were up to me, it'd happen tonight.

That would be totally sad to see.We could lose the rest of the games this year and Rhoads would probably be back.
I think that he is a good coach and a terrible recruiter.
Rhoads isn't going anywhere no matter what happens this season. Season ticket sales were strong this year, and with an upgraded stadium next year, they will be strong again.
We will return this coaching staff for next year, unless someone leaves on their own accord. Next year will be the make or break year for CPR. Another season of what I assume will happen this season (after last year's results), will force JP to pull the trigger.

I've heard very similar from my cousin who played for Rhoads.
