Without Ameer the offense will depend too much on Armstrong.

Shelly Baker

Tommy Armstrong is not going to be able to carry the team. He will need a great Amer to control the defenses concentration. Tommy will make to many mistakes and unless Johnny Stanton is ready to take over the offence we will need a great Amer.

Bo's defenses as of late have been downright offensive, so defense is more important than offense at this point.

Bart Burroughs

if it's true that defense wins championships then by default, gregory is more important.

Visitor

He'll be the leader on defense and set the tone. Ameer is great, but we're pretty deep at running back…not DE.

Rick Jameson

Plenty of good backs

Vance A. Herbek

Randy Gregory is more important because players like him at his position are hard to come by and defense wins championships. I love Ameer Abdullah but we have backs behind him that can be weapons on our offense. We have a stable of running backs.

Visitor

We have other running backs, not as good but there is more depth behind Ameer, then there is on the defense side behind Gregory.

Bill Weber

We have a plethora of very good backs but are thin at defensive end.

Jack Gillam

Love both players but defenceman needs to be dominate this year.

Erik Olson

Backups and impact on respective unit

as long as it works

Larry Johnson

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.
