Crap on Jeff Grimes thread
-
I sure won’t watch next week
-
As one of the guys that has consistently got on Grimes this season. I didn’t agree with everything tonight but he easily called his best game as a KU coach in this one.
-
@Kcmatt7 as much as it pains me admit, coach LL has to start taking heat for losing 5 straight games we led in the 4th quarter or late in the 3rd.
-
@FarmerJayhawk I’ll bet my whole pay check Kansas will not lose next weekend in football.
-
@kjayhawks I’ll raise you two whole paychecks
-
@Kcmatt7 hoping this comment aged poorly. Grimes did much better and we still lost.
-
@kjayhawks if anyone could under those circumstances, it would be us!
-
I really think the bye week came at the perfect time. I think you just have to sit everyone down and start over at square one starting tomorrow. If you are making a coaching staff change now is the time to do. You let every player and coach vent, let out that frustration. Do it behind closed doors hopefully fists fly and straighten up some folks. More forward as a team.

That’s Borlands responsibility. - -He needs to take responsibility for the changing Scheme when you can’t stop QB draws or have a RB run wild on you play after play after play.-- They should be putting a spy on those types of QB’S - -what has Borland done to fix it
-
Need wheeler back

Offense looked pretty great actually. Grimes probably bought himself another week.
Defense was atrocious.
The season continues to just be a kick in the groin though. Heartbreaker after heartbreaker.
-
@jayballer67 defense was definitely the issue last night, not sure anyone would argue that. But several other games the offense had chances to help and didn’t or turned the ball over. Last night was KUs first lost in a long without a TO.
-
What year end changes are necessary to get the football program on track with our expectations? Fire Grimes and Borland today and start the job search immediately? I’m just as disappointed with the defense as the offense; well almost as disappointed-the offense has just been awful compared with my preseason expectations. Oh, and don’t give me the “good loss” or “close loss” crap on the KState game. Only a win over KState matters.
-
@stoptheflop good loss, close loss.
Dont step out on a punt return at the 1.
Dont miss extra points.
Dont cough up unforced fumbles.
This doesnt feel like a bad game plan at fault. It was a failure to execute.
-
@approxinfinity I lost all faith in coach LL last night watching the press conference. Made several excuses and claimed we “closing the gap”. We won’t make a bowl game or even compete with KSU until the next coaching staff is here. I’d give it a minimum of 5 years before that happens. Several recruits have de committed and we just lost any decent in state player last night. This team wins 1 or 2 games for the next two years and LL gets canned. We will have a fancy stadium tho smh.
-
@kjayhawks when I was about 25, I lost $450 in a poker game. That was a huge amount of money for me then. (I’m 66 now) I had a full house and lost to 4 of a kind. Which shows you can have a really good thing going and still lose. That was the last time I played poker or even really bet someone more than $5.
Last night was my present day $450 poker game. I’ve invested way too much time and energy into this band of losers. I told myself I wasn’t going to watch, but I sneaked a peek and saw us score first. Then I had hope. False hope.
It won’t happen again. I’m folding and throwing my cards on the table.
I may root for Oregon. They’re fun as hell to watch.
-
@nuleafjhawk wait i thought the moral of the story was we were a full house yesterday and KSU was 4 of a kind. Also that usually a full house is good enough. Also that beating KSU might seem like a huge deal right now but there are bigger goals if we have continuity of direction.
Oh well, i suck at analogies
-
@approxinfinity Hahaha I just don’t see us in position to beat them again for a very long time. There is zero silver linings in this season. We are going to lose a lot of talented players and the recruiting trail looks very bad right now. I’m negative for sure but I’m realistic to a fault and there is just no upside for Kansas football at the moment. This season set us back to square one on a rebuild.
-
@kjayhawks you dont think a competitive game and a good game plan with failure to execute could be pitched to recruits as “insert yourself in this equation and we win”?
-
@approxinfinity not recruits that want to win now. You ain’t winning at Kansas next season period
-
@approxinfinity if im a recruit right now I can go to Colorado, ISU or KSU and compete to win championships right now or go to KU knowing maybe as a junior or senior we may sniff a bowl.
-
@approxinfinity No, I think you absolutely nailed it. Until the continuity of direction quip. More like One Direction - reverse. Last night was the game that firmly cemented our place in history as one of the worst college football teams of all time.
I’ve said it before, but we CONSTANTLY snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. Every single game this year we should have won. We’re a joke.
-
@kjayhawks colorado? Gross man.
-
@nuleafjhawk aw man. I guess we will have to agree to disagree on how we define worst teams in history. I will take competitive.
-
@approxinfinity everyone has their own opinion. I feel like a nationwide poll of sports fans and pollsters might have us in the bottom 10.
-
@nuleafjhawk I used to be able to point to Vanderbilt, not so much this year. lol KU football is pathetic, I hope the basketball team doesn’t disappoint as well.
-
@dylans Silver lining - at least we don’t have to worry about other teams stealing LL from us anymore!
-
@nuleafjhawk I earnestly agree.
-
@nuleafjhawk maybe it could end up being a bad thing. He has to start all over at square one next season so can he do it again?
-
Dang gonna call up my pharmacist friend and get a bulk order of Xanax in here
-
@FarmerJayhawk I hope he has better hours than “only open until 6 and closed on the weekends Walgreens”
-
@nuleafjhawk she gave me a vaccine in her kitchen once so the service is immaculate
-
@FarmerJayhawk why did I assume your friend was a guy? Evidently I’m a sexist pig. Sorry.
-
@nuleafjhawk lol no worries. She’s very much a bro
-
@FarmerJayhawk Those are very good friends to have.
-
@nuleafjhawk absolutely. Definitely the type of person you’d want your son to bring home lol
-
I still want to fire Grimes

This is the way.

Unfortunately there is a reason most don’t stay in the field. I was in the last “small” class before they expanded and out of all the classmates I still talk to, I’m one of the few that are still trucking.

The hours are awful but at least the pay is… wait a second… also not great
-
Something I found interesting , this two & six team – - - - on the Season only 2 & 6- - -Has STILL out scored their opponents for the year by FORTY SIX POINTS - -very interesting your two & six on the year and have still outscored your opponents by forty six points. - - What’s that tell ya ?
-
@jayballer67 better blow out the other team or they will find a way to snatch defeat out of the jaws of victory?
-
@FarmerJayhawk I thought the pay was really good maybe @PharmacyHawk knows better. My sister in law went to the Pharmacy school and had been a pharmacist for 20 years. Her husband doesn’t work and they live 500k house and drive brand new vehicles so I assume they are doing plenty good. She does end up working 6 days a week most the time.
-
@jayballer67 If you want to have some (sick) fun - go to kuathletics.com and look at the seasons stats vs opponents. We are better in damn near EVERY category! It’s almost impossible that our record is 2-6. I’m not a math whiz, but if i objectionably glanced at the stats - I say Kansas is undefeated this season. Frickin crazy.

I hear ya, I’ve seen them and agree – -we could very easily , be 7-1 the exception with TCU being 11 , even then we were right there most the game, a Reason I have to point blame I think equally if anything o our DC. The offense scoring the points and the Defense not holding up, blame goes both sides

It’s certainly not bad at all, but as Farmer references, I wouldn’t call it great by any means. Especially when most pharmacists suffer from horrible working conditions and experience burnout in their first few years out of school when they are just digging themselves out of $110k+ student loans.
I never went into this degree with money being the focal point. It’s nice, sure, but my goal was always to help people and I didn’t want an MD’s hours lol.
Edit: I also don’t want to completely derail this thread, but having to abide by people who have absolutely zero medical knowledge (insurance companies) or the costs of modern healthcare, makes you jaded REAL fast.
-
@PharmacyHawk Insurance companies might not be good for the actual healthcare people receive? SHOCKING!
Nothing like getting a letter two months after getting a medication, test, or procedure stating oops, that wasn’t actually approved. It’s so frustrating from the outside, I can’t even imagine how taxing it is on those dealing with it everyday for so many different cases. Funny how often the jobs where people are trying to help other people are not only undervalued financially but also consistently made more difficult by people only trying to help themselves.
-
@PharmacyHawk yes I know I’ve heard a lot of stories from her about how crooked the insurance companies are but yes will take over this thread with it lol
