Week #2: At Rutgers

[ClevelandZip]

Gotta think it’s Joever for JoeMo if we lose to Colgate.

[zipsrule]

This is getting ugly....

[dirtyolcrowe]

Fire Moorhead now!!!   He sucks!!!!

[zipsrule]

TOUCHDOWN ZIPS!

[zipsrule]

What a nice run by Simmons.

[Captain Kangaroo]

Amazing how many opponents all time program records get set against the Zips.

[exit322]

The team playing like they know this is an unserious program scheduling these nonsense games.

We’ve looked like a bad Kent State team for roughly 2 full quarters now…

 

Looking forward to Colgate I guess. Didn’t expect to do any damage to Big 10 teams this season. Ditto SEC teams.

 

Did someone say bad Kent team?

It would be strange to fire someone for losing at a school that isn't trying hard to win.

It would be less strange if Joe went and took an OC job at a school that was remotely serious, though.

He should have done that the day after we replaced Kentucky at home with OSU in Columbus.

What are we not doing? (Not sarcasm, don't know the much behind the scenes with FB)

It’s like he’s coaching a scrimmage and not for real

That thought did cross my mind.

Positioning the program for success. One doesn't have to be inside the athletic department to see that.

That would require someone in a position of authority to give a $h!+.

 

This would all be so much better with games on neutral fields in Florida and more tarps over the seats.

 

Basketball can't get here fast enough.

More like we can barely afford to fund the program as is. What's the alternative? Take money away from a football program that's already near the bottom of the MAC in funding and using it to pay a mid six figure buyout to bring in another coach?

We fired Arth under similar circumstances. Though would hope the powers that be have a little more patience with Moorhead.

[Reslife4Life]

We can’t fire another head coach less than 3 years into his tenure, especially when this one has seen a glimmer of hope unlike Arth. No one will actually want to accept the job

The biggest thing is our ridiculously tough non-con schedule.  We need W's.

[Let'sGoZips94]

NIU beats #5 Notre Dame. 

 

Wow.

[clarkwgriswold]

They're not firing Moorhead.  The days of paying multiple head coaching contracts simultaneously are over.

This forum is just hilarious. ZERO people expected this game to be anything but a loss. ZERO people (except me the homer who alway says the Zips will win) thought this game would be anything but a devastating Loss. Yet everyone acts like the sky is falling, we need to fire Morehead now, after the two most predictable losses in the history of the program. Good lord.

 

Folks: We've tried the fire-a-coach-every-three-years strategy numerous times, how the hell has that worked out over the past 20 years?
