Quick Thoughts - JOMO Has To Go

[RougeDawg]

1998. State walked into Stillwater and got blown out by a 5-6 Oklahoma State team. That team ended up in Atlanta. The SEC West is completely different now and we?re definitely not winning the West this year, but I still thinks it?s a tad overblown to call for Joe?s head after one loss. Joe?s teams remind me of Jackie?s. We lost one today we should?ve won, and we?ll probably beat somebody later this season we shouldn?t. I?ll say this, If he goes 4-8 this season, his seat should be getting very warm.

No one is calling for his head after this loss. People see that his cute play calling has already cost us 3-4 wins through 16 total games coached. It was evident today and evident last year. When we go run heavy, we are successful. Auburn last year. A&M last year. Today we ran at will in 2nd half and SloMo kept trying to be too smart for football.

We averaged 4.6 YPC today and kept trying to pass. Pure insanity. Not to forget the numerous dropped passes. Same shit as last year and no Fitz to blame now.

When did Schrader look good? We scored a TD and a FG with him in the game. I get it. He?s a true freshman, but damn.

I guess when he ran the ball because that is about all he ever did. I have lots of doubt about Moorhead and staff but we win that game if the same healthy Stevens that started the USM game had started this one. Stevens knows way more about where the ball needs to go than Schrader does but today everything TS threw was going high. Amazed he didnt overthrow Mitchell on the end of the first half TD. We also very likely would have won if Autry and Gay were playing like they should be.

7 drives of 3 and out from the "guru".

[PMDawg]

I will only add this, this is his 4th loss in very winnable games. Kentucky, florida, iowa, now this. I believe we were favored in all 4. Each was close, and each time we got outcoached. However you feel about things, that is just a really bad sign. Auburn and A&M go in the plus column. So 2-4

[Coursesuper]

We will never see the end to reactionary threads.


Blame those that cheated this team. Mullen... Recruiting or lack there of in his last year or 2. and those that cheated and are suspended.

Bullshit bullshit bullshit bullshit, sunshine sunshine sunshine sunshine, rainbows rainbows rainbows, excuses excuses excuses excuses, bullshit excuses bullshit excuses bullshit excuses. Now it's the players that got suspended fault WTF? Why not blame the NCAA, the FBI, aliens from Area 51.

The team on the field today got out physicalled on both lines of scrimmage, they brought the wood to us all day and we just took it for the most part. That's what happened, missing 2 starters to suspension is cop out excuse.

We don?t need Cohen Firing/Hiring any more Football Coaches.... Our Football program right now is the result of hiring a middle of the pack SEC Baseball coach who set in on some interviews for a Athletic Director.

[drunkernhelldawg]

One thing that bothers me is the first KSU series We weren't ready when the game started, I think that's a coaching problem.

[TrapGame]

I'm not ready to jump off the Joe Bandwagon but I've got a couple of toes dangling off the edge. My sunshine has been dimmed quite a bit.

Joey Jones sucks as a special teams coach. He should be fired immediately.

Unless we just completely screw the pooch this year and finish below six wins Joe's getting a third year.

And if I'm Cohen, K State's head coach just made my short list.

[vv83]

I'm sure either way Joe gets 3 years but I'm sure if JC needs to defend the hire this year he'll use the suspensions. Which I guess is somewhat fair. Best case scenario, by next season the entire offense will be adapted to his system, GS will be ready to be the guy, and we have recruited enough to fill Dan's holes and be a complete team with Joe's guys.. and maybe Joe has seen enough to understand his finesse bullshit won't work here and he needs to adapt. If that doesn't work then no choice but the fire him end of year 3.

[KOdawg1]

Yeah, he needs to go. I?m about as positive of a person you can find, but Joe isn?t it. Watching us play is like watching an old, ugly, rugged 1992 car limp along the road. It may get you where you need to go some days, but it?s bound to quit on you from time to time. We?re soft as baby shit on defense, our pass protection is bad, and most importantly, our coach is so stubborn about his stupid system that we?re going to sink back as a program.

[IMissJack]

- I'm sorry. I'm not being reactionary, but it's just not working. He lacks "IT" He just doesn't have the ability to get players to play to the best of their ability.

- Joey Jones may be the single worst special teams coach in MSU history. I'm sure there are worse, but it's an absolute embarrassment what we put on the field on Saturdays

- The talent on the field today was not close & the coaching was not close either. In K-State first year under their new coach, they look way more efficient & strong on the LOS.

Again, I'm sure in pure MSU fashion, we'll wait for the bottom to fall out before making a move, but JoMo just ain't the answer. His team, even when playing well, look like a loose wheel rolling down the road. They lack cleanliness. I really like Moorhead, but this just isn't working.

K-State has the 72nd most talented roster in the country. From a talent standpoint, they are close to being a G5 team.

Completely unacceptable by JoMo & his staff. Joey Jones should be fired ASAP. He signed an ineligible punter for goodness sakes. My theory is that he thinks he's over qualified to be a special teams coach & thus doesn't put forth the effort on the details to put together a well oiled unit.

I don't think JoMo was a bad hire, but he wasn't the right one. It's not working & anyone that is objectively looking at the product on the field would realize that. Everything simply looks like a Chinese fire drill, even when it works.

Horrific loss

It was a terrible hire. We are a SEC program that had clawed our way out of the cellar and our AD killed all of that to save some dough. Now the losses to the program are going to be huge and hiring a coach would look cheap.

I don't think he'd consider leaving K-State for us.

Also, being from North Dakota State, the upper Mid-west is his home. He ain't leaving.

This is my point, we've got to hire the right fit rather than the sexiest name. JoMo may be outstanding at Pitt or UConn, but he doesn't fit at MSU.

Can't do that again.

No... what most see is that he is off to an Allen McKeen level.


It's only those who refuse to see it for what it is that's upset.

Give it up...


Moorhead is here for another 3 years and he deserves it.

[RougeDawg]

I will only add this, this is his 4th loss in very winnable games. Kentucky, florida, iowa, now this. I believe we were favored in all 4. Each was close, and each time we got outcoached. However you feel about things, that is just a really bad sign. Auburn and A&M go in the plus column. So 2-4

Think we were a TD favorite in 3 of those 4 losses. Don only lost one game like that against south Alabama.

You bring up auburn and A&M as being in the plus column, but did not point out why we won those two. We won those two because SloMo got away from his usual shit play calling and we ran the f*cking football. We did not try to be cute or fancy. Pretty much sums up SloMo in one post.

[ShotgunDawg]

This is the culture Jomo has instituted. I love Kylin, but this is bullshit. This isn't leadership, this is enabling.

Just back from game. Shotgun is dead on with his comments. I've said all along fatass didn't have it...but no you stupid 17ers have to see us go into the hole before you understand. Those of us with real football knowledge and experience knew last year he was a 17 up. Nice guy juco head coach. He may not be a fatass anymore but he is still a stupid ASS. 6 wins is a reach now.

[Coach007]

Moorhead will be the best thing Ms ST has seen.

PERIOD.
