[NU Sports] Kafka

-I'm a little disappointed, but not terribly surprised that UNH put up
34 points on us.  What hurt more was the problems with the offense.  To get
completely shut out in the second half was embarrassing.  We should have had
more, and probably enough to win.

==================================

My only advice for this year is prepare to be disappointed.

Until Kafka proves that he can beat a team through the air, every team is
going to gear up to stop the run.  That combined with defensive weakness
could make for a long season.  

Fitz will have his work cut out to keep these kids in the game and make sure
that they use defeat as motivation to get better.  It was that sort of
motivation that took NU to the Rose Bowl.  Hopefully Fitz will prove to be
the same sort of inspirational leader.  If so, this season won't be a loss.
