obviously we don't see what goes on behind the scenes, but judging by the continuation of mediocrity, it's hard to believe any substantial changes are made.  If I hear "the expectation is to compete for BT Championships" one more time I will puke.  This team is hot garbage from the top down

his scheme for next year. 1. Have to change the CB situation - Peppers and Thomas in man-2-man press the whole time ? 2. Ryan at SDE to generate consistent pressure? Something to eliminate the porous effect.

Shane has played extremely well under the pressure . To bad our AD gave him shit coaches . Put a headset on hoke maybe you might learn something

of the guy that the Southpark characters were playing against in the World of Warcraft episode.  I hate him so much and also can't stand why these reporters won't ask the hard questions.  "Hey you had a month to get ready and you ran 5 end arounds, why?"  You were down 18, so why are you calling 3 yard outs?  Hey Hoke, you coach the dline and they have not improved all year, maybe you aren't cut out for the job.

I haven't been this down since the gator bowl, at least there was something to look forward to after that, a new coach. What a long offseason it will be.

Shane has looked good, but hoke and co. better learn to develop talent or you guys are in deep trouble. Every player on that team looks as good if not worse than they did last yr. Hoke is like the saban for college kids, recruits highly rated players that never get better whereas saban sends studs to the nfl that never get any better

Guy just said "they took advantage of the bowl practices."  Really? He must be watching a different game than I am.

I made a huge mistake. I thought Michigan would come out and be prepared and ready to dominate. Boy was I wrong. It's time to lower my expectations for this program.

Our lines were owned on both sides ... Again. Linebackers out of position. DBs too lost or too slow or too something. Please just let this game end so that we can all close our eyes and pretend the entire year never happened. When do we play App State again?

The Defensive Line Performance has been horrible all year long and Hoke takes on that responsibility.  If he can't successfully coach up our DLine after 3 years on the job, how is he qualified for the Head Coaching job?

why we don't play press on receivers.  Mattison says he needs to play off them b/c they can't press, but we play 10 yds off them and still get burned deep.  Why not at least try to jam them at the line and throw off their timing.   Try something new.  I'm sick of the lack of adjustments on both sides of the ball and stubborness of Borges and Mattison.
