This is a result of bo recruiting horridly

I'd be willing to bet that we've had the most walk-ons in the nation every year. Even in the Callahan and Pelini years I remembered a ton of them playing.

That's part of the problem.

We only have three more games to prove ever lasting loyalty to Mark. I said we wouldn't win another game after what i saw against Wisconsin. I'm still wondering what happened for the Minnesota game???

The Wisconsin game made us look like the '85 Bears as compared to this mess today.

No talent? It's Purdue.

That's right. Let that sink in. It's Purdue. We don't have the talent to compete with Purdue!! Did you see what they did to the defense? Hell, if they had played even marginally competent, we would've won.

Idk if youve been watching but thats been all year and it's absolutely been the coaching. We're not the worst pass defense in the country for nothing.

I've been watching all year, but won't put all the blame on coaching. Injuries, suspensions, no depth, etc. etc. etc. And coaching, to some extent. Coaching does play a part, but considering the mash unit we've been playing with, not sure many coaches would've done much better. The team overall, probably has more talent than most teams we've played, but we haven't played at full strength on either side, so we really don't have as much talent as opposing teams on game day. And without decent backups, this is what you get.

And how is that "woman logic". We suck, pretty plain and simple. Very few quality players. A bunch of walkons and kids that Bo recruited that have no business playing D1 ball. You can kiss Bo's butt all you want, but he left us this mess. Just because their's an N on the helmet doesn't mean anything, anymore. People think we are a "blue blood" program. We haven't been that for 15 years. Get a grip, we stink and the majority of the players we have, aren't very good. I've played sports and you know when you are better than the other team and we aren't better. It doesn't take long to measure your competition. And once you realize you're the better team, you punch them in the face and they don't get up. And that's what we have, a bunch of Bo Babies, who don't know how to get up.

If thats the case, poor recruiting, then at least he could coach them up. Riley clearly coaches far worse with mostly the same players. Poor argument.

Those players last year who aren't here this year on pretty big losses.
