They were close in 2016, and we have up graded in many areas.

With a new QB and new emphasis on offense, and a new D.C. And new scheme on defense, there is too much that is new to expect the team to play like veterans. They will need time to adjust. I would expect a lot more in 2018.

No but funny! We need to beat average teams before we worry about championships.

New D.C., lack of offensive line depth and a new QB plus a tough schedule = 8/9 wins. I'll take it

We're not there yet -- Penn State and Minnesota on the road are two likely losses, and the home schedule is brutal.

New passing type QB, O-Line that will get our non-running type QB sacked, losing our top receivers to graduation, implementing a new defensive scheme and losing our top Safety, and to top it off a very tough schedule. 6-6 or 7-5 next year.

really 4-8 HCMR has had no success in college what makes you think he will here let alone next yr. two things we need dual threat QB and run the ball neither will happen we could not block this yr. what makes you think it will be better next with just a passer and no threat to run ?????

Looks like we are rebuilding again. Don't see us doing any better than 3rd in the west. That's where we are these days. A little better than Minnesota, not as good as Iowa...

New QB and a new defense. Going to take superlative talent for that to happen, so unlikely.

I do not care HOW the punting is done. Only that it leads to WINS.

If something is broken, what does it hurt to try something different. Insanity- Doing the same thing and expecting a different result.

I like this style of punting. With the roll-out, it keeps the defense honest by keeping them in position in case of runs/throws by the punter.

Anything less than a drop kick just isn't trying. Additionally, NU had a punter who averaged 44 yards a kick and he had to transfer for a player to be named later. Maybe get the rugby guy in and set in place before upending what would have been a solid punting game.

Too much hassle (200 miles away) for an unknown event.

The event is a non-starter compared to the structure of actual plays and the support of young men working to find their place on the team.

If I want to see a carnival or a faire I'll go see one. This change shows fear of being a competitor on the part of Rhule and NU Athletics. It's embarrassing.

Losing the best recruiting tool of the spring and losing the money it would bring in is not smart in my opinion.

It's not a game. This was our tradition. Not a good decision on Rhule's part.
