Coach Crumbie blows it again not making a case, a bigger case for Edwards not scoring and the ball not being spotted right. If your team sucks as bad as Jech’s does you’ve got to do something to give your team a chance. All this extra game has proved is that Crumbie hasn’t learned anything about leading a team.
Actually, it proved we're a 5-8 team not a 5-7 oneOriginally Posted by Bone_afide_Dawg
Guess we already knew that
Post game Crumbie interview and radio summary show is all about praising the effort of not quitting even when nothing really goes well. Crumbie is really nothing more than a cheerleader and sunshine pumper. In a room full of horse shit he’d be pretending to look for the pony that would have to be buried in the room somewhere. I’m overdone tired of it.
My expectations were non-existent, and they still failed to meet them.
The refs were not kind to Tech last night. Not excuse-mongering, just a fact. Everyone says, "you can call holding on every play" and the refs could have called about 15 holding calls on Army and gotten those right. Not one holding call on Army, not one. And yeah, Tru Edwards scored, and if not, the ball should have been marked at the one-foot line, not the two yard line. Refs sucked.
All that said, what last night really revealed is Coach Crummy has no business being head coach anywhere! He is absolutely clueless.
I so glad last week is over. I'm tired of hearing about how honorable, noble, ethical and morally principled Army players and coaches are, (what a joke), and not one kind word like that about our players....
Army showed their true character on the last drive of the game. LA Tech had turned the ball over to Army on the Tech 25-yd line by failing to convert a 4th down with 1:15 seconds left in the game. So, instead of just taking the snap in the VICTORY FORMATION, the Army QB tried to run up the score on LA Tech by throwing the ball in the end zone with only 1:15 seconds left on the game clock. I thought it was a very "classless" act. Thank goodness, our LA Tech DB made a good play in the end zone to stop the potential score.
Then, on the next play, the Army QB tried to run one of his patented run plays for a score. The same Tech DB (#26) hit him extremely hard and stopped him for a short 3-yd gain.
This is where it got really interesting. After some more "back and forth" talking between the Army QB and the LA Tech DB --and with the clock still running and some fans booing-- the Army QB reached his hand out to make peace with the Tech DB in an effort to shake his hand. The LA Tech DB rejected it by slapping his hand away. And you could also see on the screen that the LA Tech player told him to go F.... himself.
The LA Tech player was angry, and I don't blame him. I know some of you will take the side of Army with all the silly typical cliche's...."they are allowed to play the full 60 minutes", etc.... But that's not the point. The point is, after listening all week to how honorable and disciplined Army is, this was a low life, classless and undisciplined move on national TV by Army's football coach Jeff Monken and his players.
The whole thing made me laugh. I laughed at the hypocrisy being committed by our United States Military Academy. Because after listening all week to how honorable and noble the Army players and coaches are, I sat there and watched Army commit at least two serious "unsportsmanlike" acts to purposely try to run up the score on an opponent at the end of a game.
Oh well, Go Army! Go Navy!
and the biggie.... Go Irish!!!
"not one kind word like that about our players..." What do you want to be said about "our players?" That they're good losers? Not just "good" losers, they excel at it! Fifth straight losing season and another ass kicking in a bowl game. Tech needs more players like Army has.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. For the record, since you're such an Army fan, the "hypocrite" Knights had 13 losing seasons in a row from 1997 to 2009. Then, they posted a paltry 7-6 record in 2010, only to follow that up by having 5 more losing seasons in a row thru and including 2015.Oh well, Go Army! Go Navy!
and the biggie.... Go Irish!!!
"not one kind word like that about our players...
*Army had 18 losing seasons out of 19.
*Army was 56-167 over that 19-yr period.
*LA Tech was 119-112 over that same 19-yr period (1997 thru 2015).
Army lost 55 MORE games than LA Tech over that 19-yr period.
LA Tech won 63 more games than Army over that 19-yr period of time
The defense rests.

Bless your heart HogDawg. We do not normally agree, but I 100% agree with you on this topic. The Field Goal atrempt, with them trying to get 30 points on the scoreboard. I felt was classless as well. Hell, we really did better against Army than Tulane. Ever Loyal Be.I so glad last week is over. I'm tired of hearing about how honorable, noble, ethical and morally principled Army players and coaches are, (what a joke), and not one kind word like that about our players....
