What will the IDIOTIC MAC-STAT Be This Week?????
- Thread starter CLONE2THEBONE
- Start date
And just how often do you hang on every single word of a coach outside our very own Dan McCarney?
What you fail to realize, is while D-Mac is a very positive coach to the outside world, always looking for the good in each game/player - he pulls no punches in the locker room.
It's D-Mac's "spin" that has helped get the Cyclone football program out from under the doormat of the Big 12.
Ok guys...this is ACTUALLY from the Randy Peterson Register article today:
The positive, according to coach Dan McCarney, was a defense that held the Cornhuskers to only one second-half touchdown.
:Confused: :Angry:

How many of you
would have the balls to say any of this to Mac's face? I'm guessing zero.
He's got a call-in show, Cyclone Club luncheons, an email address--lots of opportunities. I doubt any of you would dare approach him with any of this crap.
The bandwagon is clearing out. Good riddance.

Re: How many of you
Come on, we are just having a little fun here and venting some frustration. I've made my stance perfectly clear how I feel about him. I want him here.
That's like saying something bad about your parents because you are mad/frustrated at them, doesn't mean you would say it to their face.

Re: How many of you
There was a wagon? Dang, I missed it. Clonecone, you want to be the only person in Jack? I like winning, and I want a winning tradition.
This thread is hee-hi-hilarious. Lighten up. If you can't laugh at yourself, stop laughing because you are a jerk.
Mac could say "We are one of 28 teams that lost by two touchdowns or less last weekend. Auburn, Oregon, Oklahoma, and Georgia didn't make that list, and they are pretty dang good football teams. Now we have alot of tough teams who lost by less than two touchdowns left on the the schedule. It's gonna be tough, but we have to be ready, no question about it."

Good one...I missed the bandwagon to. Was that the 2003 bandwagon or the 1992 bandwagon?
I've been a fan for 28 years now, will never change, I think that gives me the right to laugh and poke fun. I've said it before, and I'll say it again. I think everyone here that wants a change or complains, just like me, supports the team a 100% when it comes to game time.

That is hilarious!

28 years? Yeah, I'd say you earned it. I only have 20. I once saw a shipping palette that some frat boys had nailed a tire to, but I don't really think you could honestly call it a bandwagon. I mean, the one guy had a guitar, but you could hardly call the guy with the upside down garbage can a drummer. Not much of a band at all.
How about this for a MAC quote:
"I am sick and tired of hearing people talk about us not having any luck. We get plenty of luck. It's all bad. No question about it."

"Heading into Oklahoma, we are one of 44 NCAA games this week with a spread less than 3 touchdowns."
(I actually looked it up but was reluctant to post it in fear of Dan using it.)

Tell me you couldn't hear some of this crap coming right out of the horses mouth:
"The last two seasons we had the challenge of starting 0-3. Both years we overcame adversity to challenge for the division title and compete in a bowl game. We shouldn't look at this year any differently."
"We're 3-3. Last time I checked that's .500. The same amout of wins and losses. If you look at it logically, we're starting the second half of the season in the same condition as the first."
"Three wins three losses. That's halfway to a bowl game, folks."

I have had my doubts about McCarney, but that quote pushes me over the top. Before reading this I had some faith in him.
This quote says it all. Correct me if I am wrong.
Pollard, You listening to this quote???????????????
In other words he is content to go 6-6, and go to lovely Shreveport. He thinks we should be too.

Dude...this wasn't a quote from Mac. This thread is about poking fun at some of his past quotes and stretching the truth on future quotes...
Then I honestly withdrawl my comments, and feel mmuch better about McCarney. With that said, if he or any other coach would say something like that, I would become an instant non-believer in them, unless they hadn't been to a bowl game in eons.
