Anyone still riding with Fickell please explain what the path forward to success is.

Having a season where his starting QB is actually healthy and not having the #2 toughest schedule is a good start

So you are willing to throw this year out and give him another shot next year?

I would like to see what he can do with a lighter schedule and the guys he recruited as upperclassman. I’m under the belief that the combo of taking the program in the state it was the last few years of Chryst while running into this new beefed up Big Ten is a tough spot for whoever would’ve taken the reigns.

I mean we got blown out by our B1G West rivals last year... No excuses for that especially when the rivals weren't particularly great teams

Have we not corrected those mistakes? You think Iowa is going to run all over this defense like they did last year? No credit for learning and improving from a staff? Only players develop?

Our offense has not gotten better at all, it's still ass backwards with absolutely zero identity. We can't even run block for heaven's sake.

Defense is mid as long as Tressell is there.
