Senior running back had 17 carries for 58 yards in UL's loss to Idaho
No comment......which, of course, is a comment....
Actually I am going to comment.....Dion Ray......
That the Prophet has been so grossly misused by Hud over the last two years is the primary reason that he is at 50% now. Rather than adapting the offense to fit the skills of his players, Hud has been vigorously pounding square pegs in round holes for almost 3 seasons.
and to think that not too long ago, he'd be prominently mentioned in most every "hot up-and-coming coaches" article we'd see.
Because he was just that, a coach that turned a loser into a consistent winner. Now? What the hell happened?Quote:

How about quit running the same play over and over again and quit running McGuire like he is a 240 lb fullback. Any wonder he is injured, and mostly ineffective when he does run the ball?Quote:

Whatever it is, he looks average. He gets tackled very easily and can't outrun slow linebackers. Why is he playing if he is 50%?
Because our coach isn't very intelligent.Quote:

In fact, his mind has taken us in the opposite direction of fixing the damage. All Hud understands is pounding the hammer. He has no wrench, no screw driver, no wire cutters, no drill, no saw. He has a hammer. He's experimented with the other tools... but when he keeps using the drill in reverse... and the screw won't go in... He grabs the hammer. And even after he's bent the nail sideways... does he use the claw and pull the nail out? No. He hits the nail harder with the hammer. The hammer is simple. He understands the hammer. If challenged... he'll swing the hammer harder. It doesn't matter if the nail is bent. Swing the hammer harder. That thing called a drill. He once used it for a day without plugging it in. Didn't work. Go back to the hammer. Ahhhh... the hammer. Swing harder. Bang the hammer. He built a dog house once before with only a hammer. He can do it again. Ahhh... the hammer. Bang the hammer. Harder.
