He’s a twitter clown and a podium character.

He’s not a football coach.

He is well under .500 without Kirby Moore.

He was embarrassed at the sport of football yesterday.

He isn’t a smart man. He isn’t a tough man.

He is a manipulative no neck scammer.

I give Zollers a pass, no pun intended. A true freshman QB with very little game experience. The loss goes to the HC.

You say that you hope Mizzou wins, but you definitely seem more happy that it didn't happen.

It's the 4th and 2 call that will live in infamy. Literally no one can explain any logic to it.

Since it was so "illogical" he thought it would catch VA by surprise.

It failed miserably. Good joke though.

Not happy at all. Spent a 5hr drive home last night after the game (upset) that we did not win. Would have much rather still be in the hotel parking lot tailgating all day today like we did at the Cotton Bowl. Ended up staying the entire weekend there partying and drubbing OSU fans.

The crazy part is we have seen this show before.....many times before. Heck, an article in the PD uses the phrase same ol' song to describe the effort. And yet, we give this clown a raise because we were afraid of losing him....let's say that again...

BECAUSE WE WERE AFRAID OF LOSING HIM!


That my friends is called playing not to lose...that is Eli Drinkwitz in a nutshell. Dare I say he's a little feminine dog....

We deserve every single piece of garbage playcall costing us wins that we will suffer through for the next what....6 years.

The people in charge of this University are INSANE...they keep doing the same thing over and over and over again expecting different results. And I humbly submit it's all because they play not to lose....the HC is a reflection of the administration.

MI F'ing Z...spells PATHETIC!

I see the blue font, but it wouldn't surprise me at all if that's what that dumb*(donkey) was thinking. he's done things like that before, thinking he can outsmart his opponent.

and besides the effect it had on us losing, it cost Hardy a chance, if the drive continued, to become the nation's leading rusher.

thanks for nuttin', Drinkschitz

"We do what we do". Run on first down. Run on second down. Run or pass on third down and fall short. Over and over again, even if it doesn't work.

Defending that consistent game plan is not difficult.

Six more: Keep best player off the field.

If someone can figure the intent behind Hardy's usage, not just the late play but all game, please post.

That's hard to believe, considering you started a thread in order to relive it with the hopes that some of the trolls would join in with you.

I said at time of renegotiating contract it was a huge mistake and that drink has turned out to be JAG and a wussy should have been a math or science teacher in HS and coaching the FB team there. He has been a good CEO about getting things done in building projects and smoozing the Legislature but as the "offensive guru" he was advertised as being? Total Fail.

Now going forward who is excited about the vanilla guy with a meh record as a OC and Playcaller? He is as boring and predictable, according to fans of MI, as Drink always has been.

But that is what is bad about these "massive buyouts" of modern HC's in College sports. They are an albatross hanging around their heads and tying AD's and BOC's hands when they make a mistake. Look at UK and their Fb program. After Stoops was rejected from Aggies, in a great revolt by their fanbase, Aggies dodged a bullet but UK fans and program was destroyed as he had told folks he was going and now no one trusted him and he had the huge contract and sat there collecting checks but recruiting crashed and so did his teams. Till they FINALLY got tired of his attitude and got buyout money together. Then they hired a Terrific coach from OR that WE MU fans would have really gotten excited about.

So hunker down MU fans, it's going to be a bumpy ride going forward with almost no hope of sustained success. EVERYONE is now LOLing at UM FB anticipating them falling to bottom of conference, while the current residents rise up their programs back to prominence.
