Is Marcus "too nice"? [LINK] - LanceManion - 7:37am 9/9/24 (20) [View All]
- Brian Kelly wasn’t nice and where did that get us? - NDWisconsin - 9:19am 9/9/24
  - 5 ten win plus seasons. He wasn’t the guy but neither is Marcus. [NT] - LanceManion - 9:52am 9/9/24
    - Also a 4-8 one and losing just about every big game. [NT] - Frank L - 10:04am 9/9/24
- Many of the fans have been 'too nice' in continuously supporting MF no matter what he does - bobdrake - 8:54am 9/9/24
- Was concerned at the pick but hoped he would grow into the position. - TakethetrainKnute - 8:30am 9/9/24
  - Agree. ND seems to get it wrong in coaching hires a lot more than they get it right. - LanceManion - 8:43am 9/9/24
  - The malpractice you speak of is specific to hiring guys without prior HC experience.. - Chrisb - 8:42am 9/9/24
    - IMHO Marcus is a player's gentleman. He's really good at emotion & that hype thing. - ELP - 9:06am 9/9/24
      - Ayup. [NT] - Frank L - 10:41am 9/9/24
      - Sadly, I think this is the case as well [NT] - TakethetrainKnute - 9:28am 9/9/24
    - Agree. Started with Faust...where ND exhibited the hubris to believe it could create a Rockne-type - TakethetrainKnute - 8:51am 9/9/24

        We've had plenty of disappointments with experienced coaches too. I get it though. I hear ya. [NT] - ELP - 9:08am 9/9/24
        No we have not...that is a flat out lie. ty and Kelly have the worst two win % among - Chrisb - 9:16am 9/9/24
        Stop being a childish wise ass.That's the only response you're getting. [NT] - ELP - 9:28am 9/9/24
        ELP...I apologize for what I said, it was over the line to say you lied, let's start over.. - Chrisb - 11:36am 9/9/24
        
        List the experienced HCs who bombed! - Chrisb - 10:16am 9/9/24
