Matt Campbell postgame quote

[3TrueFans]

Wow. Just wow.

um

At the very least why not try one of the other 3 kickers on the roster. It was well established Gilbert sucks

 

[scyclonekid]

Maybe hire competent coaches on offense their coach and not your buddies.

 

[CycloneErik]

Campbell starting to feel the pressure. Has been the golden boy for years and instead of looking at his staff he blames the fans?

And this is awfully mild. If he wants to see criticism, we've all been listing plenty of things from this year, last year, and his whole tenure that should get real answers. If he wants to say this is too much, we can get real.

 

[awd4cy]

Agreed. Feels like a guy who is getting ready to move on. I think CMC is seeing his stock drop and is ready to get out of town before the posse. The fact that he “allegedly” had a new contract on his desk last year and never signed it should have been telling.

Where’s he going to go? The big boys don’t want him anymore.

 

[CoKane]

My gut is he isn't feeling pressure, he just knows he has to do something. He's a young coach, has had lots of success, has not had tons of adversity, not used to firing people.

It's a learned skill, I had a guy working for me, people told me to fire him for years, and I waited, but I waited too long, and tgey were right. If you think you might need to can someone, then you prob need to do it.

Right, didn't mean pressure on himself. More as in pressure to do something he really doesn't want to, which is demote or fire Manning

 

[loyalsons4evertrue]

Someone will still take a shot at him. There's probably gonna be a few more Big 10 openings, Louisville is going to open too. Maybe he parachutes to Colorado or something. If he decides he wants to leave then he'll leave

but what AD would hire him at this point? He's performed miracles at Iowa State but we have about the least amount of expectations at a major program as you're gonna get....but it's looking like we won't win another game this year

Yep..... he will publicly blame the fanbase before he'll ever say a bad word about Tom Manning.... a guy that is stealing 1 million bucks a year from ISU.

 

[CoKane]

Where’s he going to go? The big boys don’t want him anymore.

If he wants a new coaching job he'll have one. Nebraska might say no now but if he wants out badly enough I'm sure Colorado or Louisville(when they fire their guy) will take him

 

[CyGuy5]

um

I was more referring to blaming the fanbase when there are clearly bigger issues. Gilbert proved me wrong tonight but if anything it makes last week more frustrating

 

[istate2022]

Bro, I’ll take your 4 mil if this is your quotes LOL

 

[ClonesTwenty1]

Feels like the beginning of the end

If we end up 3-9 or 4-8 things are going to get interesting. Matt is not dumb. He knows his stock as a high profile coach could go down the shitter quickly this year.

 

[AuH2O]

That’s about as well as a kicker missing 3 close kicks in a one score game is going to get treated in P5 football.

 

[CoKane]

IDK, Michigan State hired a 5-7 coach from Colorado and then tossed a massive extension his way. Someone's gonna take a shot if he gives them a call

 

[awd4cy]

If he wants a new coaching job he'll have one. Nebraska might say no now but if he wants out badly enough I'm sure Colorado or Louisville(when they fire their guy) will take him

Definitely. If he wants out that bad at this point then so be it.

 

[SuperTrooper]

Well I see after reading 3 pages of this crap our fan base has just as many psychotic people as other fan bases

 

[CoKane]

Definitely. If he wants out that bad at this point then so be it.

And if this was all it took to make him want to bail then see ya bye, he wasn't ever really the guy anyhow in that case

 

[fsanford]

Hooooooooooooooooooo boy

Hmmm so the fans kicked his butt, and he responded. What's your point Matt?

And the fans also said you put him in a tough spot knowing he was struggling in that game.

C'mon Matt you are better than this.

 

[CyJack13]

Can you imagine if he had taken the Browns job? Or one of the pressure cooker programs?

An SEC one?

Sheesh.

Yeah I think we’re seeing now why he didn’t take the Florida St job or another bigger program, he knew he couldn’t cut it.

 

[Trice]

As dumb a comment as this was, I'm not going to overreact to it Let's wait and see what he says on Tuesday or whatever day his next press conference is. I'm guessing he'll realize what a dumb comment this was and try to walk it back.

 

[LtRaczack]

Jfc, little too far moron.

I think it is safe to say this is not what we heard from CMC 2017-2018. I remember when he took accountability for putting Purdy in a bad position against Texas Tech in 18.
