January 1, 20223 yr I don't have any ill will towards Clarence Lewis at all. As a matter of fact, I think the young man is playing his heart out. To me, this is on the coaches for putting him on an island out there, continually. They should have pulled him, or given him help, or some other scheme. But just to leave him there is bad coaching...
January 2, 20223 yr OSU deserves some credit for figuring out a way to get the matchup they wanted so frequently. I don't wish the kid ill will either, but you gotta call it how it is. He got abused. Sometimes you eat the bear, and other times the bear eats you.

They no doubt should have pulled him. For all the flack Bracy seems to get, he’s shown much more ability than Lewis ever has. Lewis just simply doesn’t have the speed to be playing at this level. I’m sure he’s a great kid, but he should be playing at a MAC school. The fact he started at ND as a freshman tells you all you need to know about the DB recruiting the last few years.

Bayou Brian is such a good coach, how could this possibly happen under his watch? Must be his assistants that suck, they can’t coach or recruit. Who the heck hired them anyway?

I wish the portal was this instant fix that everyone keeps making it out to be, but it rarely is. I agree, we need big upgrades in the secondary but We haven’t recruited well there for several cycles and it shows.

Honestly, I don’t normally believe this is a legit response, but in this case, almost anyone would be better

Please quit football, you suck that’s all
