***Official Postgame Toledo Thread***

I'm not even mad, I'm just extremely sad about the state of Iowa State football, which doesn't even have a good history to begin with. How do you keep a coach that is terrible at recruiting, terrible at developing players, loses to FCS teams in years 5 and 6 of his tenure, loses to a MAC team while racking up at least a dozen penalties during the game during year 7, has had a total of 1 winning season which happened during his first year with none of his own recruits? What on earth do they do in practice? We can't even get any of the fundamentals right. I'll watch ISU games online or on tv, but I absolutely will not set foot in Jack Trice Stadium again with Paul Rhoads as our head coach. He needs to go and if Pollard won't fire him, then Pollard needs to go.
 
I'm sure the pundits will blame the line, the kicker, the receivers etc. But this is a top down thing. If you don't act now and send a statement that losing to MAC teams, sub-Par Kansas teams, is not OK then you are saying it is Tonight I see that the tide will not magically turn, the Team will not have a ah-ha moment. For the fans and these players you gotta let CPR go. And I'm not a CPR hater either...it's just a performance that is not getting any better with time.

hes not getting fired now, end of year
 
Speechless. Did we do practically everything possible when it came to mistakes and bad football? I'm beginning to be in the ex-ISU coach Rhoads camp. I hate that!

I'm done. If a poster should happen to mispell his name, I no longer have it in me to quote your post and perform a snarky FIFY. Apathy.

I'm not mad, Paul, I'm just disappointed.
 
It's not like Mangino is working magic here, but I'm all in favor of firing Paul tonight and naming Mangino interim head coach.
 
Im just numb to losing anymore. I havent once been excited tonight, this apathy is scary.
 
I feel bad for the players. They work hard for hours every day. They put their bodies into it. Yeah mistakes are made and games are lost but these aren't pros who collect a paycheck.

Let's not let our disgust at the situation belittle the guys who work hard.
 
Jesus, even Ben Bruns has lost it, just called Toledo a good team and there were a lot of positives....my god
 
The coaches may not make it past this season but it's hilarious what we blame on them. Fumble inside the 20? Coaches fault. Miss a 32 yard field goal? Coaches fault. Take a sack on 4th down with the game on the line? Coaches fault.

When end do the players share some of the blame?​
