Murphy recently finished up at Houston and has some pretty strong takes on Dana and what’s going on inside that locker room. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naptownskinsfan Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 Shots fired for sure. Whoever let them schedule that many games in such a short time frame should be fired. That should never happen. One good point amongst so many others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NFL players complain enough about the quick turnarounds for Thursday Night Football, and you never see a team play Sunday night or Monday, and then turn around for TNF. Playing four games in 18 days with players who are in their late teens and early 20's is something that should be governed by the NCAA to protect the players. Houston is essentially punting on their season by redshirting King and a few others. That's what they mean by tanking for college football, since everything is going to not draw a direct parallel for college. Personally, Holgerson is playing a dangerous game, because all King needs to do now is enter the transfer portal and you've wasted this season for nothing. And I bet you there are a couple coaches (Lincoln Riley) who would line up for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NateDawg Posted October 12, 2019 Author Share Posted October 12, 2019 I don’t doubt that this kid is probably a little bit of drama considering that he was on his third team. Some of the kid’s quotes from the coach come without a context, so there are certainly two sides to this. But this article doesn’t exactly paint the new coach or the culture of the team at the moment in the greatest light. Seems to me that there is fault on both sides, and the schedule is obviously an issue as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
