People just need to realize that CW is a homer. He gets paid to be. If the Clones stink and nobody cares about them anymore, then CW would be out of a job.
So you really can't blame him for puckering up this pig of a program right now. It's in his best interest. And if he starts ripping on ISU football, then he risks losing his access possibly.
So you can't really blame him. Just beware when you read articles describing how improved this team is and why you should get all excited that it could be a bit misleading, that's all.
CW, along with Rhoads himself and other coaches, have said all summer and all week long that we will know what we need to know about this team by 3 pm today. Well, the team has spoken, and it's just more of the same crap.
Hard for me to put any positive spin on what happened today. I don't see anything positive that can be built on from that mess. I mean, where do you even start? Nobody looked good except for the punter.
