Yes I MISS KLEMM, HE ACTUALLY TRIED AT RECRUITING and had 4* players interested.
"LIKE"

Yeah, we all do. Great guy to boot! I miss hangin' in his office most off all.

Palcic is a really good teacher...he is a much better fundamental OL coach than Klemm and Klemm was a much better recruiter. Our hot shot recruiter from Houston was supposed to offset Klemm's leaving...it hasn't happened ......yet?

I wonder if Zach Line agrees with you?

I'm sure he loves Los Gigante holes the OL has been creating this year!

650 yards Total Offense against Big Bad Nebraska-I'm laughing my [deleted] off at all those who took some cheap shots at his coaching ability just to suck up a little closer to June Jones' [deleted]-and you know who you are

Tell us again lefty how many recruits palcic has under his name? Or wait, how many high school visits he's made? Or, how many phone calls he's made. Or even how many text messages he's sent? Yeah, the o-line did ok against bu and the mighty SFA. Decent coaching job by palcic. Let's see what he does in the future as the talent he has to work with continues to...

The OL guys agree with the difference in coaching and have said so, several times. Check Ben Gottschalk's comments, many times he has said so......the run blocking has sucked no question but with injuries and playing true freshman, what do you expect?
Maybe its this great offense scheme?....Mouse Davis was so ahead of his time (?) , but maybe its now past time for this Model T offense.

But Ponyscott, how can you question an offense that worked so well in a previous century? At least the Model T did what Ford said it could do.

You can't be serious. The new guys have been together for 2 games -- 1 if you're talking about Weeks as a starter -- and have yet to give up a sack except for the DB blitzes from the outside, and you're complaining? Considering where they started this year, they have done a fantastic job. No, this line isn't as good as last year's, because it doesn't have 200 starts under its collective belt. Other than McJunkin and Collins, this is basically a group of first-year starters, and for their first two games, they have done a nice job. Not a great job, but better than many of us expected. I was afraid Gilbert would have been sacked a dozen times by now.

Klemm's guys have been together for just 2 games as well and they've looked dominant. You'd think he was the one with 30 some odd years of coaching experience.

It's easier to look good as a coach when you have 2 NFL caliber players among your front 5 and all are seniors/upperclass guys that have been in the program for years

while we admittedly miss Klemm the recruiter, I'm not about to give him credit for being a better OL coach than Palcic.

We need a recruiter, any recruiter. We lost the only two guys who worked the trail. You can only coach up players so far. At some point you need talent.

Even one of the greatest coaches of all time in bball Larry Brown has filled his staff with recruiters.
