Are you Kidding

The jury is still out on Coach Cooper and the Benedictine Eagles.

After getting thrashed last week by Elmhurst, BU only beats North Park by 14. Considering North Park is the bottom of the CCIW, I wouldn't consider that as a "good" game.

I'm still trying to figure out if Cooper even had a game plan against Elmhurst. He comes in, brings in all of his guys on the coaching staff, brings in 110 guys this year, and still can't be beating teams up? Correct me if I'm wrong, but the last 3 head coaches at Bendictine never lost to Elmhurst by 49 points, and they had HALF the guys on their roster. Also,

This is judgement year for Cooper and his staff. Anyone can bring in 100 guys when you have a nationally-known football facility. That brings recruits in on its own.

If Cooper doesn't win 6 games this year, Benedictine should look for a new coach.

   Thanks for the "credit."   
   Nice to see Maddog remembered.  It`s a shame he`s not on board as his stuff is good.  He`s  a HOMER of the first order and his commentary is
   as about as biased as it gets but..........but he knows his stuff, no doubt about it. Plus he has a good sense of humor.
    If he ever gets out of the broom closet at that old Tucker auto plant somewhere in Cleveland  you`ll see what I mean. 
    I wonder if he`s still wearing that old Lakeland tee-shirt with
     Lakeland Rules on it.  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Are You Kidding;

Pretty tough statement that Jon Cooper should be replaced if he can't win 6 games. He did not exactly come in to a program like Mt. Union. It will take time, maybe as much as 5 years. He has had to overcome a lot at this school. Attitude be one. He has a very good Frosh QB who will be one of the top QB's by his Junior year. His program will jell. Jon program is certainly not embarassing the University. As a fan, relax and watch the progress each week. There are many 0-2 teams that will take a wind over NPU. 1-1 is a good start. BTW, they will not beat NCC. Their athletes are not as good as NCC athletes.

I have no affliation with Benedictine, just my opinion.

whats up gentleman?  I have been reading this board for a couple years, now that im not playing i figure its cool to join in.  I was just wondering if anybody has news on the CUW quarterback situation? I know Chart played much of the second half, hes a solid option, but I dont know if pachiolli got injured, or if he was pulled (the o-coordinator isnt exactley stable in his quarterback choices)

    Just a follow up on your comments on North Central.....Benedictine. 
     I sure hope BU doesn`t get big headed over it`s win against North Park.
     A team that has a conference record of 2-54 from 1999-2006. Give them (NP) credit though as they have won some non-conference games. As you
    implied though, a weak team at best.
    As far as North Central and Benedictine.  North Central will beat BU like a
      rented mule.  More on Thursday.
    As far as Coach Cooper is concerned, he was a long timer at Aurora and while there, they (AU) did rather well. I`m with you on..... lets give him
   some time.

I seen the note comparing the CUC win over Blackburn and the GC win over Blackburn.  Not sure you can really compare the games.

CUC and Blackburn - the score was 14-13 Blackburn with 9 mins. to go in the 3rd Q and 19-14 CUC going into the 4th.

GC and Blackburn- the score was 21-0 starting the 2nd Q,  And it was 34-3 with less than 2 minutes left in the game, and Blackburn scored, and sure it wasn't on the starters.

So, although I wasn't there, not sure we can really draw any comparisons. We'll see what GC can do the next three weeks- NAIA school this week in Taylor and then Lakeland and Aurora.

Have a good week!!

Are you kidding me?

No seriously.  This kind of post is rediculous and I'm not a BU alum.

Elmhurst has dominated its series with Benedictine before coach cooper by an average score of 48-8.

North Park may be the bottom of the CCIW, but they have a recent coach too (who was also trying to turn around a program).  Many of us in CCIW believed the Vikings had a good chance to win this game.  They are rebuilding a team and an attitude just like the Eagles.  Congrats to Benedictine on a good win, not an iffy win, a GOOD win.  This was a must win game for both teams and Cooper pulled it out.

After allowing 52 points to pitch a shut-out is a great accomplishment.

Next, when was the last time BU saw 110 players in camp? 2000-2001? Maybe.  But don't be fooled by numbers, Benedictine has numbers, but they still lack the size, speed and strength that will put them over the top.  Against Elmhurst thier O-line was dismal at best and the D-line not much better.  The D-line had one guy over 250 that played.  You play with who you have and Benedictine is going to need another year to develope those young kids.  Freshman rarely make an impact when they are not surrounded with leadership from the upper classes that have put in time.

Troubling news out of Macland.  The J-ville Journal Courier reported that a student and footballer got stabbed in the shoulder  at a party on Saturday night..

I'm not sure the o-coordinator is sure about anyone This offense is not running well. He does not have the athletes from last year. He needs to simplify things and get good at that. I don't think Pachiolli was hurt. I think he was looking for a spark.

   This is not met to provoke or inflame but rather clarify.
    You said in part," Elmhurst has dominated it`s series with BU before
    Coach Cooper by an average of 48-8."  I`m sure the game figures you used worked out to the average, That`s not my question.
    The word "before" is the is the fly in the ointment.
     Coach Cooper`s first year was 2005, as stated in his bio. So, that being said he was not responsible for anything pre 2005. Using game totals from 2000-2004 (got to start somewhere) The rounded off average I got was 36-18.  Using scores from 2005 thru 2007 ( cooper years) I get an average of 46-3.  Close to yours. I just came from a different place. 
    Your point is understood and BU was indeed dominated before and now but the word "before"  just caught my eye.   The white flag is waving. :D

About the stabbing. It was not a Mac player, but a former player who was trying to stop a towny from acting up, walked over to him and said hey whats the problem and the coward stabbed him in the shoulder. So no it was not a football player. It is sad though that this kid was just trying to help and got hurt.

drucker, thanks for the clarification.  The townies in J-ville are an absolute nightmare, especially around the area Mac is in..

I agree that he needs to simplify, he is obsessed with coming up with new innovative plays and refuses to go back to the basics.  I think that chart has been underated, im curious to see what happens this weekend.  I think Wisconsin lutheran will be a good tune up game for CUW to start conference play.  hopefully they can get the kinds worked out, because if they cant score touchdowns they cant win this conference.
