Of course, he did dominate the BE conference when the BE was at its best.
And what happened after that? Selective memory perhaps?

You guys are way off base. Coach P is building a program and you don't do that in a year and a half. The most glaring need we had was a decent quarterback so he went out and recruited the best one in the state and someone with a semblance of experience to hold us over. He's also recruited a tall, mobile quarterback out of Texas. He is improving that position over what Randy did. Everyone admits that the receiving corps is better so now I'm sure the emphasis will be on recruiting better lineman and a bigger, tougher running back. I know everyone is worried about the bland offense but there must be a reason for the madness behind the scenes that we don't see. Just give it time.
Close to the truth.
But ... you still have the DeLeone problem. Pasqualoni simply seems to be loyal to a bygone era; and that era has a name & it's spelled _______.
Some people (not Jim) defending the Buffalo prevent offense strategy have been throwing out the Vandy outcome to back P. The two scenarios couldn't be any more different.
At Vandy, we were on the road at an SEC opponent with a 1-TD lead at midfield halfway through the fourth quarter with a defense that had been playing lights out and a very shaky QB. Yes, at that point, you do sit on it and let the defense win the game.
Against Buffalo, we were home against a low-level MAC team. With 18 minutes left we basically snuffed out our own offensive momentum (which sadly is a common theme with this staff). All we got up 24-7 were straight dives between the guards. No counters, sweeps, or short, safe play action passes from our new, better QB to our 6-6 tight ends.
Seeing the wishbone in the fourth quarter with Whitmer at QB? That's a $25k fine for George.
