So, we can move the ball against bottom feeders but not PSU and MSU? That doesn't help your argument.
7 new starters is not the unicorn of college football. Lots of teams graduate starters every year. You list 5 FR, 2 SO and a Juco as 1st year starters. Where the Hell are all of the JRs and SRs that this staff recruited from 2013-14-'15??? We signed 58 players from those 3 classes. I guess you can take your pick. The coaches failed to recruit players from 3 entire classes that could fill the needs we have on offense, or the coaches have failed at their jobs this season. Either way, it all circles back to the coaches. There is no road of responsibility that doesn't fall on KF and his staff.
Making excuses for the coaches? puke puke puke puke PUKE!
