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!

inconsistency

Jason Nider

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

David W. Hanson

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"

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

Steve Rentzell

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

Danny Purcell

taking full advantage of college rules

Ron Graf

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.

Tom Cullinan

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.

Richard Johnson

No interest in 7-on-7.

Dan Larsen

Live in Dayton, Ohio! 800 miles one-way.... but I am a season ticket holder. See you during the season.

Ryan Goecke

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.

Dave Kapke

I live in Colorado

Kent Haynes

I can see both sides. But it is losing a tradition.

Bruce Craig

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

Robert Lloyd

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