After watching this completely disgraceful performance, I have a few thoughts. None of these will be surprising.

1. Priebe is not good, but as mentioned in another thread, he would be our best.
2. Today reminded me of the days where our starters hung for about half the game and then collapsed into the Dark Place.
3. Jack Lausch is a very good athlete, who plays with heart and grit. I loved the fact he came to NU. To this point his body of work is not good.
4. We have very few, if any actual playmakers or threats. Opponents really have no one to worry about. 5.
5. Both lines are undersized, not very athletic, slow, weak and not physical.
6. Why is Hilinski playing and not Wright in garbage time?
7. We played with heart last week and didn't even show up today. That's on the players first and the Coaches second IMO.
8. We are not as bad as Purdue or maybe Maryland, but we are trying to show we are.
9. The Ryan family and Donors have given $$$$ for our "palace on the lake" and now the "the venue to come near Mustard's". Instead of Edifices being built to Beatify the Ryan's, put the money in a pot to get players that we can get through Kathleen Hagerty's near impossible admission policies.
10. I am having my first Gin and Tonic now.
11. Is Braun the HC we need? I like him and his enthusiasm and resume as a DC and Interim HC. He is learning on the job and doesn't blame others. To me he is the work in progress. He has shown leadership skills, but I don't believe he is ready to be a HC yet though he is due to circumstances beyond anyones control.
12. My opinion only. Fitz deserves to be the HC still of this program and he was royally screwed. I am still a fan and even if 50% of the accusations are true, almost every Coach in the country has committed or witnessed more egregious accusations than what he was terminated for.
13. What Schill, Gragg, Hagerty , Peter Barris and His Minions on the BOT have done to Fitz and the Football Program is truly Criminal.
14. The announcers today spoke of the fact that Braun and the NU Football Program's future was "bright and promising is complete and total BS!!!
15. Unfortunately College Football has become more of a corporate entity than before. This is the new landscape of the sport and either Hagerty retires is fired and Schill, Gragg are terminated now, we will once again be the Doormat of the Big Whatever!!!

Now I can have my Cocktails.

Happy Thanksgiving to all.
