Seems extremely logical. Makes you wonder why Rees is so clueless

Agree. A little late but Driskel has been spot on the last few podcasts

Same.

He's a tool, not surprising that you listen to him.

Nah. The tool is in one of the bullet points here. Notice the failure to recognize
You are constantly wrong, real easy to bitch about things you know nothing about.

I repost a post of you being absolutely wrong and you hold to that I'm wrong. Psycho much?

I'm not wrong.

How can you know that you aren't wrong if you aren't there?

Have you ever posted something not critical of posters on this board? Just wondering.

constantly so butt hurt about disagreements that you can only respond with personal insults.
Only the people who have no understanding of football and coaching.

You've shown little football understanding. As a staple on this board we know coaching isn't
your day job either.
Great stuff!
You have shown you know nothing about football or coaching.
Calling for firing everyone shows that you are not very smart.
Hmmm... Psycho much? Here's a reference to the times I never said "Fire Everyone"
Fire Rees != Fire Everyone

What do you think of Goolsby?
Odd, all the ND pundits and sites are all saying the exact same thing Driskell is saying. I guess they're all tools, yes? Or maybe
you're the tool.
His last one was good. The others are a guy complaining about "it's not like it was back in my day."
While misremembering or not realizing he played on some of the absolute worst ND football teams there were. His class(es) basically helped cement ND's death penalty. Hardly any of those guys would have started on any other top 25 team in the country.
How long until the boos are followed by chants of “Do your F’in job”?
Tommy is like Kelly. When he’s getting heat, he does enough, but when the heat is off, his old tendencies re-emerge.
He’s not good.
Agreed

INSANITY…..doing the same stuff over and over and expecting different results……SMH!!!!
Toxic Tommy. Didn't realize he was blaming all the players for the terribad offensive scheme

Blaming all the players isn't leadership. This guy needs to be fired.

Stupid is doing the same thing over and over again. Like dying on the hill of hate for someone
telling what is the obvious truth.
The players have to take some responsibility for this loss.
1) Lorenzo Styles can't hold on to a TD catch.
2) Mayer TD catch called back because of a stupid penalty on a play that you know was practiced over and over.
3) Drew over throws Lenzy for six.
4) Estime's fumble.
5) Drew over throws Tobias for six.
7) The tackling was bad. I mean really bad. The D looks slow, but add bad tackling to the mix.
Who chose to go for 4&1 instead of a FG in Q1? Who chose to not call TO when the play was recognized
as being wrong?
Who chooses to call a jet sweep to a TE, the slowest guy on the field, on 4&1 at the goal line?
These were 4 mistakes that happened before a player ever screwed up. These 4 mistakes on ONE SINGLE PLAY cost 3 points which would have given ND a very ugly win, but a 17 - 16 win.
Who came up with the rest of the game plan?
Who didn't make changes offensively after the half?
Yes, the players have to own it too. But, the basic mistakes are coming from coaches not players. These mistakes are all more costly. If we get all these things right and the players are still screwing it up 80% of the time then there is still a problem.
You can't say ND would have won 17-16 by kicking the field goal
The whole rest of the game would have been different.
Skipping the opporunity absolutely left us with less points which in this case woud have won the
there is an age old, proven time and again adage, "take the points". The number of times a team skips a field goal in Q1 and it comes back to bite them is quite high.
That is true that it does not guarantee you a win, and yes the game could turn out differently. However, upon review of critical game changing plays. The ones you *should* learn from for future reference. This is FAR AND AWAY the easiest to correct and the most critical at keeping you from a successful outcome in this case; a win.
Meanwhile we moan about player execution while coaching mistakes are the biggest detriment by far.

Are you sure the 4th & 1 FG would have been made?
The point is, there are plenty to point fingers at. Rees, MF, players, team leaders. In spite of Rees and MF, the players still had the chance to make plays that would have won the game and they didn't. So many plays in one game that were not made by the players themselves. Listening to all these post game pressers from players and coaches is mind numbing. These players yelled and cheered and wanted MF as their HC. A real Sports Center highlight that was played over and over. Their peer, so they thought. Their guy. Does it look like they are playing heart and soul for him? In spite of the staff, the players could have, should have won that damn game just by making plays. Rees isn't going anywhere this season.
Without the opportunity to attempt it, who knows...
I'd put money on yes from that distance though.
There is something deeper going on here. I can't put my finger on it though as an outsider.

Yeah, I don't disagree with that for sure.
