GAMEDAY QUOTES


Zach Smith...
Elizabeth Sherman, SicEm365

“I feel great. I feel confident. Seth (Russell) has confidence in me going out there and leading the team, and I feel great, real excited, maybe a little nervous, but I feel like that’s a given. I’m just going to go out there and be a leader and try to execute this offense.”

“I’m really excited. I’ve been looking forward to this my whole life. It’s really heartbreaking what happened to Seth, but I mean I just have to honor him and go in there and do what I know I can do.”


Ryan Reid...

“(Seth Russell) teaches everybody the mental part of the game – to stay poised no matter what situation we’re in. It’s a big loss for us, so I feel like I have to be a better leader.”

“I feel like we won the physicality battle at Oklahoma. The mental errors come from distractions and from not worrying about what’s in front of you, and that’s something I just have to keep harping on with everybody.”




Blake Lynch...
Elizabeth Sherman, SicEm365

“I think it does help me be adaptable, but I don’t really feel like I’m the new guy here. I’ve been here for a year and a half, so I’ve been around the coaches and I’ve been around the system so I think I know it pretty well. So it’s really just getting back there and following the big guys because the O-line did a great job.”

“I played quarterback and running back in high school so it was natural for me, but really, I’m just doing what the coaches ask me to do.”

See my comment above. There is definitely talent on this team....definitely....the players are just lost right now. A good coach will see that and the potential.

So that's what happens when you bring more than 3 guys on third and long.

Who are these sources that are telling our mods the players where going to get it together and then staff was going to get the guys on the same page? Please find new sources.

We can still win if we decide to tackle and run routes and stuff.

Time to blow it up and start over. The Briles era is over and done.

I keep seeing this post (not just you) and I can't help but think that the Briles Era was dead May 25th...we just kept doing CPR & defibrillation in denial.

We kept the coaches to try and salvage the season but it has backfired in ways no one thought and now it could have serious consequences that could hurt our program even more for the next 3-5 years.


Oh people saw this coming but they were silenced by those toting the company line.

As long as we make a good coaching hire, a lot of this dumpster fire will be relegated to the 2016 season.

The hiring a long term coach in May option was always a pipe dream. Even if someone would have come, you would severely limit your AD options. What AD would want to come here knowing his most important hire had already been made for him? Then there's the issue of putting a staff together in a few weeks in June.

There was no realistic option other than what happened and it's much better for us long term to have an AD like Mack choosing the new HC with a 3+ month eval period.

K State ran the exact same pick play earlier and didn't get called for it. We can't even get calls at home.

Just admit you are wrong, we could have had what many think is our top choice back then. It would have been seem less, he probably saves some of the guys that left and we have a good recruiting class right now. Problem is those like yourself that think inside the box are part of the reason we are in our current situation.
