He does work hard at it. And is better than Mullen at it. W that said, our results won't be much better than dan's and this year will be another 10-11 finish in the league and 25 at best overall. Probably closer to 30.Quote:

It’s not like we didn’t sign several with Mullen trying to make up the numbers. Some of y’all act like we just didn’t even go after any and that’s why we are in this position with DT’s. And it’s definitely not like last year was Moorhead's first class. The gap has been known for a while. The transition year obviously was very difficult to add DT’s but let’s not act Mullen didn’t go after numbers. We also lost Williams to UNM (not really shocking but still) when Moorehead first came in and had to battle to get Lovett back in the fold or the DL situation would be even worse.
The one we had a shot at that joe himself waited to late on. Maybe he was no good but we needed to take a shot. Just like we did on love.Quote:

Everybody knew Pope would never hatch it. He couldn’t get right in HS or Juco. Ellis never qualified and his situation was known up front.
Cohen was on Matt Wyatt's show today. If I don't believe anything else he said, I believe he's going to give Moorhead time and believes in him.Quote:

When his heart and motor was right, he could have been really good. That was always a big question but seemed to change his last year. It didn’t stickQuote:

Who could we have used that we also could have signed? No smartass, serious question. Bc if he exists, that is absolutely on joe.Quote:

You might want to look at Dan's offensive stats in year two.Quote:

We may be 70th Nationally right now- but our PPG has gone up from 28 to 30. Total offense is about the same- but total offense is the equivalent if wins for baseball pitchers. Some of it is based on field position and it can be misleading. The goal of a football team isn't really to rack up yards- but points.
It's also worth noting that we haven't played our FCS opponent yet which we should pad some stats with and is included in last year's stats. With what we have left on the schedule and how those teams have performed I'm anticipating that by the end of the year we will end up having better numbers than last year.
You can compare our SEC only stats and both are up as far as PPG from 19 to 25 and total offense is up from 316 to 377 compared to last year- which I think is fair to use since that's what you consistently tried to use to discredit Joe last year.
Bravo sir! The most accurate post on here and all of it is 100% accurate!Quote:

And as I've said before Cohen really shouldn't fire anyone after two years considering his first two as baseball coach. Which actually should be taken as a lesson for some of our posters on here.
JoMo may not be a lazy recruiter, but I'm not sure he's much better than Mullen. Has he broken a top 20 recruiting class yet?
And I agree with 34 and 7 they?re deflecting. But what are they supposed to do? Cohen is catching heat too. This was his biggest hire and it?s not going to work out unless the jucos really show out. He’s one more bad hire from a shit storm on his porch.
