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.

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

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.

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

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.
