Hey douche bag, I know you are barely literate but if you bother going back to reread what I wrote, I said playing Lausch gives NU the “best chance” to get off the transfer portal. I didn’t say it was going to happen. I am perfectly aware of how much development he still needs. Come to think of it, don’t bother. just F off and slink back to your board.

This team has to have the worst hands I’ve ever seen. Snaps and long snaps are consistently bad. WRs don’t catch. Tight ends, an extremely experienced rooms, have hands that remind me of my high school on linemen days. RBs who aren’t Porter can’t hold onto the ball. Pretty bad.

And they brought in some good players that followed the former HC at Holy Cross.

Your challenge is to say something legitimately positive about the offense. You cannot use an underhanded compliment that is actually an insult, but you may damn with faint praise or by omission.

I’ll go first:

Jack Lausch has a lot of heart out there and deserved more completions than he ended up with.

The offensive line is probably better than it could have been given the lack of experience entering the year and all the injuries, especially in pass pro.

This season so far when the Moose have made their presence known the Cats have won. Gotta feel good about today's encounters. A pair walked across our street this morning. Then this evening they returned with one more to make it a rare trio.

Moose Mania
This morning two Moose showed up. Then in the evening they returned with a third.
After the others had their fill of the tasty vegetation, this one stayed on for dessert.

Now that Jackson is here, NU can fire Schill & Gragg but they won’t.

The Board of Trustees is feckless.

Northwestern has bottom 5 leadership and a toxic culture.

I hope they leave the Big Ten. We still can not beat OSU or Michigan and likely won’t again for decades.

People might not like it but I can understand if Braun felt he needed to get some (any) O points on the board at that point. Out short yardage O has not been good all year and we were missing the most important pieces, Porter and two OL. That really hurts the options. The O needed to get something, anything. Not getting anything would have devastating.

Look I understand everybody's disappointment in the decision. But I can understand how under the circumstances it was necessary. If Porter is there or if the O had shown any ability to get things done, different decisions would have been in order. Why not the second time as well? The necessary O points were there and the game situation was very different but after the failure, you can understand the decision the first time around.

It isn't just QBs we have had trouble recruiting lately. We have also failed to get our A list every down candidates for RB the last few years so that now we only have one even on the roster

Lausch is not Kaepernick.

Does anyone else remember Brewfka versus Nevada in 2006?

Fitz got outfoxed there too. The Pistol would have been incredible instead of Mick McCall’s crap, but Fitz kept listening to his OCs instead of continuing to educate himself on offensive and defensive philosophies.

Braun is the right coach for us. He’ll probably get fired when the stadium opens and replaced by a “bigger name” to help sell seats.

I cannot wait to see @EvanstonCat’s reaction when one of Pat Ryan’s kids pays a fortune to hire Urban Meyer or Ryan Day after he is fired by OSU 😂
