From a team standpoint, do you think this was the best chance at GV getting a NC over the last few years or were there better teams?

Mitchell: “Great job out there, guys! We dominated every facet of the game. Now, everything that worked for the offense in the first half? Scrap it. We’re doing jet sweeps for negative yardage until the fans’ eyes bleed. Now go out there and show them we have no idea wtf we’re doing!”

For what it's worth, I am thoroughly enjoying the agony you Allendalers are going through. I might even send an anonymous letter to your school president detailing how impressed I am of how hard the Lakers football teams play under Mitchell, and that he is the right man for the future of the program going forward.

This was definitely the best team since the team that lost in the semis with Bart and Marty Carter. And it sure seemed like they were the better team for 3 and a half quarters today. Hard to believe that after dominating the whole game that the D couldn’t get off the field on one of those 4th down plays on Ferris’s tying td drive (and then giving up several huge plays to set up the fg). But tip you hat to Ferris. They made the big plays when they needed to. Meanwhile our offense had so many 3 and outs and stalled drives that killed us

Anybody. There is no d2 program in the country with more advantages than GVSU. None. That's why we won four championships in five years with two different coaches and two different quarterbacks. Who else has done that? NDSU is the closest and they've dominated d1aa since they moved up.
If GVSU is serious about football they need to fire Mitchell within the next five minutes and bring in the coach from Davenport. They'd win the national championship next year if they did. But they won't. Instead they will underachieve until Mitchell retires

The punt inside your own 10 with Cade Peterson, which predictably ended up in a block, was the difference. Indefensible, really.
Not to mention the replay showed Mylik Mitchell fumble on his way in to the end zone. But oh well.2021 D2Football Fantasy Champion

And, again, I've never defended Mitchell on here lol. I've simply said Annese is one of the best coaches in D-II history, and is difficult to beat. Not sure why you want to keep tearing Annese down, though? It seems like that's what you're doing when you try and keep blaming Mitchell for losing to Annese.
GV failed again. Horrendous play calling, and clearly overmatched outside of the trenches. GV dominated at the line on both sides of the ball, and still lost. Predictable offensive play-calling, and continuously the same failings on defense, which is getting torched by any remotely mobile QB up the middle. It's like the team goes in to every halftime and doesn't anticipate their opponent ever making changes. GV dominated the first half, didn't capitalize on multiple possessions to go ahead multiple scores, and then sat in the locker room and didn't change anything. Ferris, as always happens, made the adjustments, and GV didn't. That's how these games always go.2021 D2Football Fantasy Champion

either way GV simply is not coached well enough to beat great teams. I've felt this was for a long time. The results of his entire tenure confirm this.
Kle you still think Mitchell is who should continue to lead gv football? Would they be better off with sparky?

If you think Sparky McEwen is the answer, I don't know what to tell you. Again, Mitchell has a top-three winning percentage among active coaches in D-II with at least 8 years, and a top 10 winning percentage all-time in the history of D-II football. If you think you can find better, just because he loses to the coach with the best winning percentage in D-II football among active coaches and a top 3 winning percentage all-time in the history of D-II football, then I don't know.Last edited by KleShreen; 12-03-2022, 05:37 PM.2021 D2Football Fantasy Champion
