Caron Tyler in. Delay of game first play. Just let the kid play

Caron looks like dislocated shoulder. Rowan misses 5 and out to move sticks.

 

Brown played for Brother Rice. The Four Freshman are all from great Midwest programs. 

Old Fox recruits are playing inspiring football on defense

Can't do anything if the OL is getting overwhelmed.

Just left the game. Honestly, Drake did not look like world beaters, but Valpo was pathetic. For the love of God, keep Keefe on the bench. He looked like a deer in headlights all game.

This has a bit of a Carlson feel to it. Literally anyone can see the current starting QB is not answer, even if he fits the system.

Keefe is up to 9 INTs in 5 games splitting time. Running three times and punting will keep score closer. Not all his fault.

The OL is outmatched and our center cannot cleanly snap the ball. Mansaray and McNeeley look washed. Rumoro had the most pop today.

We do not have PFL talent at WR.

not Carlson but it looks like 2015, my senior season. Let the young guys play and start building for the future 

 

Frustrating as an Alum. As Landon was close. We were competitive. That is no longer the case.

Keefe now has two games with three interceptions, both coming in the most embarrassing losses of the season. Not to mention, he’s had three games with under 60 passing yards. There’s a saying, “If you have more than one quarterback, then you have no quarterbacks.” Tough to watch. Despite the score, it seems like the defense played pretty well.

The scores should be getting closer

 

The Delay of games, missed field goals, shanked punts, QB/RB exchanges should be getting better , not worse.

Team is in for a world of hurt once the Fox level players either portal out or graduate on defense

Both coached were in their first PFL game today 41-0. Paul said worst PFL offensive performance since 2011.

@valpofb16 - gotta disagree. Keefe needs to get rid of the ball. He needs to be benched, period.

@usc4valpo I said not all his fault. But did not say he should keep playing at all. I called for any other QB on the roster about 8 posts up

Truly ugly. Whoever thought that kid could punt…well, never mind. As for the piece 16 wrote about things getting worse once Fox players leave, sounds like something written by either by a Fox relative or someone with a big grudge against Andy.

Neither.

Look at our defense? Lendino, Samuel, Cervantes, Felteinelli, Fowler, Morris , Wilborn, Little, Johnson

Waddle transfers

Richardson- Brown - Not Starting

Grant- A&M Kingsville - Not Playing

Hardeman- Southwestern College- Not playing

omar Jackson- Not playing

 

Nurse/Salman have been solid

 

Markley and looking like Hill/ Brown might be good finds. But the outcome does not equal the income using objective reasoning 

 

And if the defense falls off , it’s not like the offense is improving…

 

I’m also not calling for Andy’s job at all. I’m saying the rebuild is on

The sad thing is that Drake is nothing special this year. Seriously.

Couldn’t follow the game. Just got on my computer.  We go into the locker room at the half only down by 13.  Then we give up 28 unanswered points in the second half to limp out of Des Moines a 41-0 loser? Sounds like an implosion to me.

@vulb62 - the defense played valiantly, but this offense obviously sucks. We left with 12 minutes left in the game as it was 34-0 and 93 degrees. What also sucks is that we were the only Valpo fans there not associated with a player on the team. As an alum that really pisses me off.
