As it should be, Stu. Not the time to let emotion guide decisions.

This the game our LBs finally get exposed:
1- sorry but Montgomery is too small. This will be the game he won’t be able to shed blockers

2- Buffington is just ok. He makes the tackle but it’s always after 6-7 yards. Thats fine but not for a defense that needs to dominate.

3- Reis will finally get exposed for his aggressiveness.
Ok dipshit. And Josh Dix will never ever spend a single day on an NBA roster.

Fuckin REKT!!!!!

I listened to this immediately after Hawk Central. It's just night and day. I know he's young but Tyler T is more annoying than helpful or informative. I like Leistekow.
I find Leistekow is drifting into Kakert territory. Keep that shit moving, we don’t need 300 aside per episode.

I like the guys, and I don't want them to be Tyler from the DM Register or that doofus Elliot from 247, but they've gone fully overboard on the technical coach speak.

At points they sound like Tony-Rice-roni, and at other points they sound like they are auditioning to be on the Iowa staff.

Finding a happy medium of being technical and informative while also using a bit more everyman language would be helpful for them going forward so the didn't sound so completely annoying.

Don't be afraid of it, doug.

Douglas - it’s the best thing we’ve ever had as Hawkeye fans for that type of thing. Nothing has been close.
I like it, and that's the point. They've amped it up far more than last year, I'm guessing because they know the coaching staff is watching.

It's making it not as good. Sorry, just stating the FACTS.

Maybe it helps if you're watching but all of the coaching jargon doesn't really carry through if you're listening.

People have gone too far on hating football technical speak. I agree “room” is ridiculous and several other terms but I like discussing specifics of plays / defense alignments etc.

it’s like discussing math and freaking out because someone says they used McLaurin.

We haven't gone far enough.

Wide 9 technique. Apex on the edge. Heavy tech, spill to C and D, try to bubble, corral d-ends, keep everything into A and B, overload you with interior fits from the Mike. Heavy corners and safeties, get back in your web, Keep you within A and B, tie you up with interior blitzes.

Run fits!!!!!!!!!!
