Hoke honeymoon is long over. Fix this CRAP, come up with a coherent gameplan, get an OC that has a fucking clue, or get the hell out of here. I don't care how cool your introductory press conference was, or how lucky you got last year. If it wasn't for Mattison, this team probably wouldn't be in a bowl game.
