Notes

Live Team Notes

OC David Gilbertson fired after only one season

Bottom 5 in CFB in scoring opps both Off & Def

Team does nothing well and likely worst in MWC

QB Purdy (1 TD/8 INT) benched for Fr Carter Jones

Def is fighting but the Off is one of CFBs worst

Run heavy 60% but #112 in Rush Success. Little hope

1-10 in last 11 games, 4-14 under HC Choate

Def ugly LY, return 1 starter. 14 portals. Yikes

0-6 finish, Def abysmal esp vs run. Bad vibes
