Michael Morkert

the defense is much improved and the offense is on a roll

Brett Blanchfield

straightforward shot at title game with improved D. By then, should have a strong enough offense to knock off OSU.

Aaron Nelson

Good returning core on D. Lots of talent and experience on O.

Palmer Barton

Defense

Mike Conyers

Flying under the radar, new leadership from qb, better d-line. Shaping up.

Stephen Johnson

Do to the injuries in the line last year many under-classmen started and got great experience. This will pay off this year.

Mas Shara

its about time, high expectations last year, not so great, lower expectations, they'll probably surprise us!

NU doesn't have a good enough HC to win any sort of championship.

Not likely they will win the conference championship when they won't win their division

Chad Meyer

A big learning curve early in the year coupled with a tough schedule worries me. I also think others in our division have a much easier path to the BTCG.

Purple Panda

I would have to see a more disciplined team to believe that it's possible. History tells me, to vote "no"

Glad to see an acknowledgement that the O wasn't working. This shows some urgency about winning which I appreciate.

Bill Greim

Seems pretty obvious that when something is not working very well and you don’t know how to fix it you bring in outside experts for advise. Common practice.

Brad Bredenkamp

Holgerson has enough experience that he should be able to watch some film and the players in practice and call plays that play to their strengths. I'm betting he is also smart enough to stick with what's working until the other team stops it, and to develop some offensive rhythm.

Robert Lloyd

Anything is better than Satterfield. But I don't know why we didn't go after the US Army's OC who only makes $190k and absolutely knows how to run the ball.

Brad Bredenkamp

Because Army's OC can call the triple option and run the ball, but he probably doesn't know how to call for a pro-style quarterback. Plus it is very unlikely that Army's OC is going to jump ship right now the way their season is going. Maybe gets a look after the season if Holgerson doesn't stay.

Dick Plock

Needed change for quite a many games. Our offensive & defense coordinators are being out smarted.

Jean McGee

Satt has been wasting Raiola’s passing strength.

I refuse to get my hopes up

Craig S

Installing a whole new offense would be very difficult. You might be able to refine a small portion but learning the timing and terminology would be difficult.

michael daly

The habits of almost 2 years don't change overnight. That being said, A new , more forceful, high expectation coach, might be able to snap them awake and Go
