too much pride/loyalty for entz/roehl/braun. almost to a fault. they stick with "their guys" just ask the players who left.
NDSU should be about competition and best man wins.

We never took Mr. Cra-cra seriously and typically took cautious measures not to stimulate further similar outbursts.Quote:

I’m not really sure what to think here but I do recall similar conversations when Brock was a Junior/Senior. Do you think Jensen would have beat Wentz in an open competition before the 2013 season? Even if Wentz could’ve have won this battle, should he have started?Quote:

All sorts of people said that back then. Wentz was by far the "better" choice but how could you bench a guy who's won you championships...Quote:

If that's the case then we've got even worse problems. FFS, this coaching staff thought QP was a starter. But back to Cam, I go back and forth on whether it's the horrible play calling that destroyed his confidence or if his shortcomings dictated the predictable playcalling.Quote:

1 thing I always liked about NDSU FOOTBALL. they played the BEST player and said. fuck feelings.
well??
If "one of the most" means maybe top 200, then maybe you can accurately use that phrase. Ease up on the hyperbole, dumbass.Quote:

It was certainly a great run but to say it was "1 of the most electrifying QB runs in NDSU history" is just complete hyperbole. It's the hyperbole that I was commenting about, not CP or the run. They're both good.
14-7 tight game, EWU getting momentum and Cole unleashed this epic run
listen to the crowd!!

Even if he finally gets his chance to play do you really think he will want to play under this OC. So much untapped talent it’s a shame
Brock Jensen GSU playoffs??????Quote:

"regular" not a good choice of words; more like 10 to 15 snaps......is that asking too much ?
Unpopular opinion: this guy still looks super awkward throwing the ball. Long slow motion with poor accuracy. Cam missed some throws today but the ball zips out of his hand by comparison.
