So he's critical of ISUHCDJ's decision to go for two. I've already covered that in another post. I would have done the same thing. Even Prince said he would have done the same thing. Then he's critical of the hirings of OCJF and DCRM and Prince. Tell me, Joe, just how much experience did RSnyder's first group of coordinators have? I can't confirm who they were but I can pretty much guarantee you that they had no experience either.

Other then the part in the last paragraph where he says that: "It should be noted that as of right now, he’s way ahead of Bill Snyder’s pace. Snyder lost his first game by 31 points", at least that part is informative, this column is a waste of the paper it was written on.

The column makes some good points. 

There's no reason to go for 2 when you've been outplaying the other team the entire game.  This wasn't a case of a team getting a lot of lucky breaks to go their way to knock off a vastly-superior team, which is when you might go for 2 in such a situation.  This was a case of a superior team making a poor coaching decision.

It was a pretty dumb decision. A lot of these DIAA's try to pull out all the stops when playing good teams.  I guess that stays in form.

I couldn't agree more.  I love reading Joe's stuff.  It's pathetic that KSU fans are trashing him now just because he pointed out that the emperor was naked last night.

really? who is trashing him?

It is a tragedy because now, we have at least an extra month without Cat football until next year. I hate wasting my life away but I can hardly wait until next year.
