There isn't a snowball's chance in Hell Marve gets another year. Poor guy...he really could've done some special things. As much as Rob Henry means to the locker room, he really is just a poor man's Tim Tebow with less religion and more politics. Then again, all that bastard did in college was win. Then again, anyone could've won with the talent he had around him. Now, I am a big time Terbush hater, but as of right now I think he's our best option. I can't wait to see Robinson take some snaps in April in hopes that he proves me wrong. Appleby's day will come, and now I see we signed ANOTHER QB for next year. He'll probably be moved wherever Gary Nord can render him most useless. Oh well, BOILER UP!B-Kizzlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08636900437292759046noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36696801.post-31982251413062771882011-11-30T10:41:48.985-05:002011-11-30T10:41:48.985-05:00I think the bigger problem on offense is a lack of...I think the bigger problem on offense is a lack of effective receivers. Edison is great, but the receivers aren't coming back to the ball when they run their routes. Over the last 2 games, the announcers have commented on how the receivers are making it hard on their quarterback by not coming back to the ball. Additionally, aside from Ross and Siller, our other receivers are undersized. On defense we've got undersized cornerbacks. This isn't an issue when we play teams like Illinois and Minnesota, but when we play teams that have bigger guys like Notre Dame and Michigan, we get shut down. I've read that there are some big guys coming in next year, so maybe that'll help.The Starving Guitaristhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02851177748134894334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36696801.post-79029664131797501982011-11-30T02:46:04.460-05:002011-11-30T02:46:04.460-05:00I'm all aboard the Austin Appleby train with H...I'm all aboard the Austin Appleby train with Henry moving to RB (assuming Ralph is out)I just don't believe Henrys' arm is D1 worthy. I completely agree with your assessment of Coach Hopes' lack of ability to make tough decisions. The best players should play...PERIOD. The bottom line is, if he cannot figure out who that is, he shouldn't be head coach. "Platooning" rarely works at this level and I doubt Coach Hope will be one of the few to be successful doing it.BoilerBloodlinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07056897537313305905noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36696801.post-35123246107586280752011-11-29T19:40:38.710-05:002011-11-29T19:40:38.710-05:00I really find it hard to believe that Marve will g...I really find it hard to believe that Marve will get a sixth year. I don't see how they grant him one after Keith Smith being denied. I feel bad for Marve has he tried to turn it around at Purdue and never really got the break he needed. Unfortunately, from a leadership and toughness standpoint, we will miss him. From a passing/performance standpoint, meh.Patrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02161818661464846987noreply@blogger.com
