one thing I'll say for Elko...

he was shocked too by how bad Weigman was

This might just be the dumbest thing I've read on here today and that's after readying hundreds of delusional doomer posts after 1 GAME.

You think he is a coward for not trying to win an un winnable game? Less than 30 seconds to get 10 points just to TIE? Buddy, this hasn't happened probably ever, and even if it has, it probably was a once in a lifetime moment.

What smooth brain would risk getting his starting QB hurt by needlessly throwing the ball?

Stoping being a total moron who only sees red when we lose.

I don't think you understand how hard it is for a team to learn a whole new system
Especially on offense

It's going to take about half the season

But with that said CW really didn't help
A good QB can help a team overcome these hiccups
The dude just doesn't have that "it"

Reaction to firing one of 10 active coaches with a national championship was, ok we'll see.

And we saw.

Despite some of the dumb old comments on this thread, I don't think he has any character issue. Damn I want to like the guy. It's a performance based industry.

The picture of him with his mouth open reminded me of the OSU cowboy with the big hat on with his mouth open.

You would too if you were surrounded by dumb players and coaches who aren't smart

Very ominous first game for Elko.
Offense very unimpressive
Offensive play calling very unimpressive
Quarterback who looks confused and continue to throw off his back foot. Very unimpressive
Receivers who we've been told are great could not get open. Very unimpressive.
Defense that still cannot Fn tackle.
The more things change the more they remain the same.
54 years of this $**t.
Good Lord.

Two years later, this is still SPOT ON.

Your wrong. Elko has a clue. He trusted the OC he hired. That OC proved he could not be trusted tonight. Elko will have to monitor the offense cause they performed terribly. That OC is getting his ass kicked tonight by Elko. I feel for Elko. But, Elko should have had the balls to call Reed into the game. Elko knows they took an L and should have been a W.

Only so much the OC can do, when the QB can't hit the broad side of a barn

It's becoming glaringly evident that Elko was good at the DC position but as things have played out (collapse at the end of last season, questionable decisions with coaching hires, regression of QB1) it is becoming clear that Elko is not cut out for the head coach role. At that level, he just does not possess the necessary skills to run the whole ship.
