But it hasn't worked out that way at all. <br /><br />I am absolutely done with the slow starts every season Riley has coached the team. It's a handicap and without star players, impossible to overcome.Webmasterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15558313493734116432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34137080.post-36298364455373021502011-09-10T13:12:51.747-07:002011-09-10T13:12:51.747-07:00I have been a Beaver football fan since I was a ki...I have been a Beaver football fan since I was a kid. We had season tickets when Fertig, Avezzano, Pettibone etc were coaching the Beavs to winless seasons. I have sat in the rain and watched them get beat by evryone. I remember a game against USC in the late 70s where the Trojan's starters didn't even dress for the game, and they still shut us out. Two years ago, we were one game away from the Rose Bowl. Last year we were sub .500. This year promises to be worse yet. There isn't even a glimmer of hope on offense, our defense looked decent for two quarters today-I think we will finish 2-10, only because we might beat UCLA and WSU-but I wouldn't bet on it. Hope Nevada beats the ducks.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34137080.post-36712018238669937192011-09-10T12:24:50.682-07:002011-09-10T12:24:50.682-07:00Totally agree.

I am sick of the Riley apologists, and national media types who keep pumping up the abilities of Riley. We have continued to become more and more mediocre since Erickson left, and I fear we are on a quick return to the futility of the early 1990's and prior. I know I'll hear it from you Beaver fans wearing the blinders and your ever-present optimism, but this thing is ugly and going to end even worse. This guy needs to go. I know, I know, he signed an extension, we would owe him a buy-out, blah, blah, blah. Either we cut the cord now, or get suited up for being the laughing stock and doormat of the Pac-12.
