Farley Comments

Here's a quote about Varmah Sonie fumbling. Does it sounds like he's blaming the entire loss on Varmah?

“That was the difference in the game,” said UNI head coach Mark Farley. “He probably shouldn’t have fielded that punt. Huge error. Huge error. Unacceptable error.”

Farley...such a class act...lays the loss on one player.

Sonie...such a class act...didn't shake hands after the coin toss.

But...you know...Farley teaches this attitude. It affects the discipline of the team on the field.

The purple scrum.

Sounds pretty accurate to me.

I don't blame Farley for his attitude. It is a part of him and we as fans should simply accept his pettiness. I do like the TV theory...

However, using the turnovers as an excuse is unexcusable. Turnovers are a part of the game. If your team is pressing or unprepared, turnovers are more likely to occur. (Stated another way, minimizing turnovers or their impact is a coaching responsibility). Fielding a punt inside the ten - coaching. Attempting to pitch to your buddy (or not tucking the ball) - coaching. Underthrowing the ball - Execution which then becomes player and preperation or coaching. Missing a block - Execution which again is a shared responsibility.

I took his comments as not stepping up as a coach and trying to deflect responsibility. In essence, he is throwing his assistants and players under the bus. No class at all.

That is all.

That is all.

Sounds like he's selling out his player publically and not taking any responsiblity for the loss or not giving any credit. That's the vibe I get. What a DB

Went to the UNI football site, on that webcast, in response to losing their WR, Farley said something like "it was really disappointing, WE have been trying to clean up stuff like that", seems like he was insinuating the hit was deliberate and intended to take the receiver out of the game. Farley is struggling to accept the loss to NDSU. So glad we have Bohl, class act!!

Almost as much as he is struggling to accept his loss of hair.
