Did Hauck come back just to coach Robbie...

[RoseyMustGo]

While I am in favor of replacing a couple of offensive coaches, thus my screen name, I also believe that our biggest problem has been the lack of recruiting great players from this staff, including Hauck. Let me remind you that the Bobcats have 5-6 players in the NFL right now, and we have one, who even left us in his senior year. We used to put players into the NFL every year. No longer. Hauck and Rosey have had 5 years to recruit QBs, and have come up with zip at that position. This plug-n-play thing at the QB position, without having any depth in the back-ups, is ridiculous. Then there is recruiting O-linemen, which has been a disaster for Hauck 2.0. Finally, we are being owned by the Cats in recruiting in-state talent.

A wise coach once said.... "It isn't as much about the X's and O's, as it is about the Jims and the Joes"

On your 11th post to this site you presume to know how the majority of Griz fans feel. You shouldn’t assume so much. I think there’s justification for asking coach some hard questions, and maybe forcing him to make changes at a coaching position or two, but this iteration of the Griz is still better than the last and still might surprise some people. We do not need a head coaching change and all the turmoil that would cause. It would set us back again after we’ve just started getting things turned back around. The team in its current iteration might, however, benefit from a new coordinator or two and position coach. Despite all his faults, Bobby’s players will always play tough. Please do not presume to speak for the majority of fans. I don’t think you are qualified to asses the majority opinion.

So let me get this straight, now simply being better than Stitt is the current standard? That is pathetic. Hauck 2.0 has had 5 years- he is a proven commodity at this point. We'll consistently beat up on lesser competition and then lose most games that mean anything. No conference championships and a putrid record against the cats. Maybe even a quarterfinal run here and there, but never sniffing a championship.

Your assertion that we should keep a marginally above average coach for 5+ season out of fear that we couldn't possibly do better is embarrassing for the standard of this once proud program.

People act like Bobby is just going to suddenly wake up and change his staff. That has never been his MO his entire career. For better or worse, he is loyal to a fault.

Well to be factual, Bobby is the first Griz coach since Bobby to have back to back 10 win seasons. That sure does suck.

Didn’t he just want back in the BSC? He would have been the head guy at NAU if the AD had stayed and he applied for and perhaps was a legit candidate for Bozeman.

Correct. He was in line to coach at NAU but an AD change happened and they kept Jerome for another season. But this move still seams to mean he wanted to coach Robby. He was never a candidate for Bozeman.

the majority of us wish he would go away

Outlandish statements like this require evidence to even register. Who is "us"? Run a poll.

 

[kemajic]

Bobby has lost a huge percentage of the fan base this season.

There is zero attendance or program contribution evidence to support that.

+1. I’m in no way connected, but if I had to guess I’d say there are certainly some boosters calling for coordinator and position coach changes, but not head coaching change

You sound just like PR, don't sound like PR… If our yearly goal is to have 10 wins then great, let's not make any changes. But it isn't. I don't know what changes need to be made but we definitely need better recruits or we need to be able to develop the recruits we get much better, our offense needs to be much more imaginative and be able to adapt to what defenses give us, and the same goes for our defense needing to have the ability to adjust on the fly to stop whatever offenses throw at us. That stuff isn't happening now.

 

[HookedonGriz]

And here is his cat buddy who conveniently joins him in all his postings…..99% chance it’s the same psycho with two user names. Cute how the cats come here to talk to each other or in this case themselves.

I only know one person that posts on here anymore, everyone at our tailgate quit posting years ago when it became and echo chamber of friends doing what you're trying to do right now. The cool part is I don't give one [#]f### what you think. Look at your posts, that tells us who you are as a person and it's ugly.

Chase somebody else around on here fanboi. You do not get to tell me what kind of Griz fan I am.

See you in Fargo, ha ha no I won't your not that kind of fan

I’ve watched them in the FargoDome twice, watched them in Washington twice, watched them in Oregon as well. I follow the team as closely as you follow the Cats. #catstriggered

I think the goal is to win as many football games as possible, and the point was just that Bobby has had more success this time than any coach that had the job since he left. But you did a great job trying to make it about something its not. And I do feel that 10 wins is great....7 not so much.

 

[libbygrizcat]

All the Bobby bile on this forum is pretty funny. While he hasn't matched his first stint as coach, he's 35-16 (68.6% win percentage) with three trips to the playoffs (the current playoffs and previous two quarterfinal campaigns). He's not going anywhere no matter how much the haters whine and cry about it and 90% of FCS programs would kill to be as big of a "failure" as some people would like everyone to believe he has been with Hauck 2.0. I would argue that the Big Sky Conference is a lot stronger now than it was back in the day and that "RTD" is simply tougher to achieve now than then because of that. I guess there's something to be said for having a successful team where people constantly bitch about not being super-duper-duper successful every down of every game as if they're perennial losers, but it does get tiresome.

As far as Robby goes...I like watching him play. He has his flaws, but he's obviously talented and plays hard every down. At this level, the coach doesn't get to let his kid play every down out of some sort of favoritism, if that was happening, the other players coming and going in and out of the program would be bitching about it and I've never heard a peep.

50+ starts playing every down on defense? I wish our QBs were that durable.

 

[sdk.catfish]

More in line with the OP, does BH play the 3-3-5 defense because that is literally the only defense where he could keep Robby on the field the entire game. Small and slow, good tackler but couldn't cover a rock with a paper towel. I guess we won't know the answer to either question until next year. Bizarre to me that the Cats can hire their 6th choice (according to always accurate egriz) and have two stellar seasons and some fans don't think younger and more innovative coaches wouldn't salivate to coach the Griz and bring real RTD back. I mean like there are only about 10 teams in the entire FCS you have to dominate and we are the 24th seed?

 

[Griz Addict]

Nobody can say why Hauck came back but the majority of us wish he would go away, he's had almost 20 years and even supporters can see he's not getting the job done.

He would be an exc3high school football coach but he's in way over his head, just like a new guy coming in year two and schooling him like a special needs kid.

It happens often with coaches like WSU, Sac St and MSU. He's a slightly better than very average college coach. Schematically he doesn't get it

Majority? Rofl. That's why the stadium was packed every game with more fans than anyone else in the fcs.. you're the minority and the majority think you're a dipshit.

Sure you have lol.

The only cat games I have ever gone to are in WGS.

FTC

I have been to Tennessee, Virginia, Texas, Idaho, Washington and Oregon to watch the Griz play. Just doesn't happen often lately since We get bounced early if we even make it.

 

[Griz Addict]

Let’s get back to little Robbie Hauck missing every open field tackle on Saturday.

Yeah he misses every tackle and that's why he's, what? Number 2 in tackles in Big Sky history? You dumbass cat fans are so ignorant it's not funny.

 

[Ut-Grizfan]

The only thing I'd like to see change is our OC and our OLine coach. Haven't been a fan of this offense since Rosey has been here, and since our OL has been hit or miss at best I'd love to see an option based concept brought in. Not a true triple option but something similar to what Costal Carolina does currently.

Would also fit into Bobby's apparent mentality of wanting to establish the run game, help our O-LINE and would play to Britts strengths. Ostmo and any other of our RB/WR core would thrive in that offense.

 

[UncleRico]

I can understand people posting some of this stuff after having a belly full of beer and raging a few hours after that game Saturday. But come on..really?

 

[GrizProtocol]

Did you ANTI Rosenbach guys hate his offense when we dropped
47 on Northwestern
49 on Indiana State
53 on Portland St
57 on Cow Polo
63 on Eastern Washington

Or was it just the other games where "Rosey" wasn't executing on the field?

It doesn't matter what offense you run, if the players execute plays it will work

 

[BillingsMafia]

There is no doubt bobby was a decent football coach. He has always had some glaring weaknesses. College football coaches need term limits, and bobby has termed out. He has made the program boring. I believe he has become a major liability and I'm sure others will agree. He did recruit Britt and if given the chance he may be the second coming of DD. I hope after the bison or semo embarrass us bobby will tip his hat and just go away. The powers that be should discretely suggest the same.

Absolutely horrible teams to try and make a point.
