I bet you couldn't wait to get rid of Lloyd either.  How did that work out for you genius?

This is a very talented coaching staff that hasn't put it all together yet.  Thank God David Brandon is smarter than you are.

There should be no way on earth that Miami Ohio should be able to line up on multiple occasions with 10 defensive players within 5 yards of the LOS...

I just don't even know what to say about the end of the half. It's the opposite of what I liked about Hoke. I mean they have 88 yards in the first half after being put in amazing positions. The D is playing well down three-ish starters.

How does Hoke explain this game in the context of getting better as a team if this doesn't turn into a blowout in the second half? How can he even look any reporter or fan in the eye? Who should be thoroughly embarrassed by that first half.

Beautiful summation by B10 Network sideline reporter.

Hoke paraphrased: "We had a lot of mental errors."

Who is responsible for those mental errors?

The coach.

I know a lot of people here hate Bill Simmons.

In one of his gambling columns he mentions he bet against Buffalo against Miami because Jimmy Johnson looked like a real coach and Wade Phillips looked like a doofus.

You can parse out the rest.
