Welcome to Our Hoosier Board!

Most of the posters here have been around for nearly a decade now. You'll find their knowledge and insight to be second to none. We have a really strong community and value everyone's opinions.

Feel free to jump into any thread and voice your opinion with conviction. We love heated debates and even some fanbase ribbing from time to time. We pride ourselves on the lack of moderation needed to make this board successful.

Please remember that we have been around many years and have an astute ability to tell the difference between an immature, childish, trash-talking troll and a passionate fan voicing his or her opinion. It is at the discretion of Jazen and myself whether any moderating actions should be taken at any given time. It's a very, very rare thing. In other words, no worries....you'll be fine!

Cheers,
sirbrianwilson

Blaming Hope for stupid playcalling isn't saying he's a bad coach. Good coaches make bad calls. But acting like nothing falls on him, because he doesn't call the plays, or execute them, is dumb.

You say I blame him for everything. False. But you act like NOTHING falls on him.
Certain things fall on the head coach. Play calling (on either side of the ball) isn't one (unless he actually is the play caller like Weis does at ND).
Then why is the head coach even at the game on Saturday?
Mainly time management and major decisions (like going for a FG, going for 2, etc.).

Definitely not playcalling and looking over the coordinators shoulder all game long.

We’ve had some guys in our program, we had a couple guys that felt I had a bias towards E’Twaun Moore. And they were right — I do have a bias towards E’Twaun Moore. I like guys that go to class, that are academic All-Americans, that come early, that stay late, that love the game of basketball. I am biased towards those guys. And I’m biased towards Rob Hummel. But I’m also biased towards their habits, their work ethic, and how they carry themselves."

I'm going for Iowa too, family there, long time fans. And I think if they beat Wisky they will win the big ten, because of OSU offensive incompetenance. I want at least one big ten team in the NC discussion.
Where is the Iowa /Ohio State game at this year?

What in your opinion falls on the head coach.


In general, if you say "we lost a game we should have won" that falls on the head coach at least somewhat. If players are still fumbling like retards in 6th game, then the coach either isn't stressing it enough in practice, or benching the guys doing it.

Preparation, practicing, recruiting, all fall the head coach. The HC chooses his staff, so repeated bad playcalling (whether or not he's the actual one calling it) tends to fall on him. If his OC is still being a retard, and he's not doing anything about it, it shows he approves.
We've had repeated bad playcalling? I thought the playcalling was pretty good the whole half, except for the one play.

There was a bad play call, it happens. Should we fire Nord at halftime or at the end of the game for a bad call?

*sigh*

But you tried to pawn off the time out against Notre Dame as a good decision or one that the coordinator, not Hope, made.

Hell, Hope might as well be in the press box making calls down to the field for all the responsibility you give him on game day.

over the course of 6 games, there have been not some "bad calls" but downright terrible calls. In key situations that are effected the game immensely. I would think Hope (if he is truly fucking clueless about the playcalling, and stands there with his thumb up his ass until it time for a "big decision") that he is at least going over with Nord what he likes and doesn't like about his playcalling, and we should be seeing less and less of horrendous playcalling.

until he gets fired or retires, and then it will be the SOS with the new guy.

I pawned it off on an assistant? News to me.

I just didn't think it was a bad TO. That is on Hope if you thought it was a bad TO, I didn't (and many others didn't as well).

Yes, because when I thought the FG attempt last week against Minnesota was a bad decision, that was blind defense.

Playcalling has been pretty good IMO. Don't know where the horrendous playcalling has come from.
