Suddenly, Kraft’s looking pretty good, eh?

Besides not being able to find good pizza, the one bugaboo about living up here in MA has been the lethargic attitude toward college football. We have BC, but they've been largely unimpressive and ... well, they're like ND-lite, where no one except that cult cares about them at all, and those who aren't fans kind of despise them (freaky pent-up co-eds, back in the day, however - I'll give them that).

So it'd be nice if UMass could actually do something and generate some buzz. I'm guessing they'll still end up a sub-.500 type squad ... and the somewhat-local kids who appear to have provided them a spark are seniors who transferred in (no idea if they have a 5th year of eligibility), so even this small burst of life is likely short-term.

I thought he looked disinterested all night. Will Rutgers be a repeat of PS last year? Has Schiano already found his next landing spot?
He certainly had a stoic demeaner; none of the vein bulging, head shaking animation from behind the playcard he's displayed in the midst of past adversity. I was sensing some medication in play, but who knows, perhaps he's found a higher spiritual mantra...

The first time the defense gives up a first down, it will be time to fire Campbell!
Same thing with the first punt. In fact, the first half may be brutal in the in game thread tomorrow as the team is essentially two teams plus other transfers all combined together, which will take some time to gel.

Gus a 20yr season ticket holder. A man who can take pain . He's done after last night. Forget fireworks. We need a firing squad.You can hear the pain in his voice. Sounds next to tears.

I think most teams will have one of these at some point. I know my alma mater PSU has had some crazy head scratching losses (see Boston College game 2003 as an example).

30 point favorites went to their heads. They thought cakewalk.

I’m a bit surprised by the result. I actually think Schiano is a good coach. At Rutgers though, you’re coaching with one hand tied behind your back. I really don’t follow them. I assume they are in a huge NIL hole.

Wreutgers needs to be replaced in the B1G. Like in those pansy Euro soccer leagues where if you don't perform, you get demoted.

I was in the hospital for this game. First thing that had brought a smile to my face in nearly a week.

Ruskers deserves every horrible thing that they can possibly experience.

They can take their 'ped state' official handout signs, roll them up nice and tight, then bend over and...well, you get the picture.

Enjoy the fireworks NJ losers.

I had two big time issues with Kraft. One when he didn't fire Franklin soon enough and when he tried to lock-up his buddy as the next HC from the get go. Then had zero fallback plans because up until that point a real search wasn't happening. Then when he actually got started it took on the appearance of a Keystone Cops Movie. It was just a really bad look. But good people usually find a way to land on their feet. Kraft may come out of all that looking pretty good.

Yeah, the coaching search was a bad. That BYU coach??? WTF. I think HCMC was always in the mix, but Campbell has lived a strict policy of not talking about other coaching jobs in-season which made things difficult.

Stop already. Kraft being able to hire Campbell epitomizes the better to be lucky than good saying. If Campbell had a “well known” strict policy of not talking about coaching vacancies during the season why did Kraft try to do so and fail?

Where's RutgersAL? I am sure he spin this into a strong positive.
He's probably flushing his head in the crapper at this point.

Those people on this board like him change their handles so they can hide and post their crap until people figure out who they really are then they do it all over again pretending to be discerning or disgruntled fans. Sorry for the rant.
