The Great and Powerful OZ

Post by Statler »

Ignore that man behind the curtain (and his failure to recruit).

Instead, blame our loss on:

the student body;

the refs;

the M Band;

poor cell phone coverage;

bubbas from tech;

Any distraction other than the real problem!

Don't blame June because we can't do any better

The administration lied to June and hasn't given him all they promised

We're never going to be able to recruit Big 12 caliber players because the fans suck

June can't play for the players

We're actually recruiting better, the players look bigger and faster. June just needs more time to develop them

I was wondering if it was a poll given the way it was written?

Yeah I know, I was just giving more of the stock excuses we routinely hear from JJ shills.

Everyone knows the run n' shoot is so complicated it takes approximately 7 years to learn. Next year our offense will take off, for sure.

Also, we are only a recruiting class and a half away from greatness!

What we need is a QB with the experience of Peyton Manning to execute the overly complicated offense-Gilbert doesn't look like he knows what to do half the time just like last year. In addition the O-line doesn't look like they know how to pick up blitzes. Do we have a coach who can coach the O-line? Or is last years RB coach all there is teaching them. Don't know if this is an issue, just asking.

Actually he was upset that no geldings were there and worried that the hi-tech tiki torches would not work

The Great and Powerful Oz appreciates more band talk so you can ignore the man behind the curtain
