You can certainly count on a few things on this blog. Chief trashing Montgomery and 1AA rushing to his defense. Monty here or not here, with QB or without QB, score 45 and give up 48, it doesn't make any difference, according to chief it's all Shane's fault. On the other hand, we have had some games when I thought they put all the plays on slips of paper, dropped them in a helmet and drew each play 100% at random, but according to 1AA, Monty never made a bad call.
I'm glad Montgomery is gone just to stop the same old bickering over and over and over!
If there was a unit that cost us a playoff spot and another run at a championship, it was the OL. Last year we recruited 3 OL, this year, with 3 inside returning starters and both tackle backups returning (although it appears Jeff Rotheram is MIA?) , we recruited 1 freshman and 3 JUCO transfers. THEY know where this problem is too! For me, the weakness in the coaching staff it with Carmen Bricillo and the OL. Everybody wants to take shots at Monty, or Pelini Bo and or Carl etc, but in 9 years Bricillo has produced 1, just one 1st team MVFC OT. That was Justin Spencer in 2017 and I though he played significantly less effectively in 2017 than 2016. I also though Vitas Hrynkiewicz and guard Gavin Wiggins went backward in 2017 from 2016. We give Bricillo credit for recruiting and JUCO recruiting, it is about time he show something on the field.
