Steve Tinnell

he can turn them into a 7-8 win team

Ryan MacKay

He cant do much worse than Beckman

Kurtis Ramsey

The big 10 has some big time coaches. He will be able to recruit, he knows defense. It may take a couple years but they will be a force.

Stephen Douglas

For a defensive guru his Tampa defenses were relatively weak despite the fact the had top notch talent.

Jerry Williams

Good track record and will have a tough defense. Defense rules,

Stephen Douglas

Where does he have a good track record? One great season and one decent season in chicago a decade ago is not a good track record

NFL retread "name" coaches seldom do well in college FB. It's a different game.

Geraldo Boru Brew

He could never beat the Packers!

Stephen Douglas

He has very little enthusiasm for the offensive side of the ball, he tries the old philosophy of keeping the other team below 10 pts and beat them on field goals. He can not win at a high level, especially since he has lost his defensive touch

Stop it with the environmental crap talk and bring back the balloons!!

Thomas Wright

Tradition !! It’s all part of the game and has been for so many years … HELL YES BRING IT BACK PERMANENTLY !!!!🎈🎈🎈 and GBR !!!

Wade Williams

We miss the balloons. Bring em' back!

Bruce Bredthauer

Because all that green woke bullshit is way overdone

Don Darrow

I love 🎈 like Penny Wise

Tom Cullinan

It is a unique tradition and raises a modest amount of money for the program. Besides, the new B1G ad still shows the balloons rising from the stadium and we'd hate to be billed for a redo.

Robert Lloyd

Tradition lives on and no intelligent person believes this is destroying the earth. Get rid of liberals not our balloons.

Doug Einsel

Have the cheer squad release at both ends of the stadium from large boxes/baskets.

Don Micki Boehm-Havern

Only if all biodegradable!

I am extremely concerned that some redwood owl or a spoon-billed sandpiper my try to eat the balloons and die. This is unacceptable. This may tarnish Big Red forever. I need a diet Squirt.

Rick Hazen

Maybe start a new tradition with the new coach and new team. Opponents have been complaining about the balloons possibly not being biodegradable so let's just change things and start something new

Joe Nigro

Environmentally irresponsible.

Steve Goertz

Let's start a new environmentally friendly salute.. .. red hankies.. red signs....

Richard Stotts

some traditions need to be changed, this is one. no balloons

Gary Williams

We have already broken the tradition. Let it lie and bring it back only for certain games.

Mike O

No. Celebrating a single touchdown as if it's some sort of win? It's a fun idea but it is littering and there should be other ways to celebrate the first touchdown. Dannen is just sucking up to the fans here. He wouldn't do this if he had to pick up the spent balloons.
