Re: FB at No. 24 JMU, 3:30 p.m., ESPN+

To be clear , the AD owns the hiring decision and he knows it . ipso facto if this one doesn’t work out he probably won’t be picking the next coach That is what I would think as well. It just shows how powerful football is that an AD could make tons of good hires but if they make multiple bad footb...

Re: The Good, The Bad and the Ugly- Marshall

While there are benefits to having an OC, there are also disadvantages. The largest being financial. Can the AD provide another $500k to hire an OC plus other salary bumps? Along with extra investments in NIL? Fair point. As much as having a dedicated OC would help, raising the needed funding would...

Re: App at Dartmouth

Dartmouth is not a good team….. They lost to Bryant by a similar score to our game. Bryant is 1-3 with all three losses by double figures. We beat NCCU by 22 whereas UVA only beat them by 19. UVA is 4-0 with a 26 point win over Marshall. This game is fun. There's nothing to suggest, at this point, ...

Re: The Good, The Bad and the Ugly- JMU

The good- rock bottom is a solid foundation. This season may be a wash, but hope springs eternal. There's always next year. I'm just confused about this season. There has to be something going on that we can't see. The regression of play from the offense is just weird. It's not a small regression e...

Re: Stink discussion

Hard to say when they've beaten us more than anyone in the conference. Terrible. I've been to their campus. Wins and losses aside, we aren't the same. I have too, sat in that stadium the last two times they beat us there. We can poo poo their campus, their academics, etc. but for 60 minutes FIVE of...

We have several rivals in my eyes and frankly I dislike JMU and CCU {whose coach refers to us as "that school in Boone"} as much as any other.
JMU could be a rival but calling CCU a rival gives credibility to a program that doesn't deserve it.

I love a Thursday night game in Boone. Best tailgate of the year and the team should be fired up for this one.

I think it's a war of attrition at this point. Going to make it closer than what you might otherwise expect.

Re: This would be fun....G6 tournament

Get rid of the G2 and we can go back to paying them under the table like it's supposed to be done, because this is America and that's what we do.

Re: Winning….

I like winning. I hate losing. When we lose, I write a check to Yosef. Makes me feel like I'm doing something about it. I've given more to Yosef in the past few years than I planned to give. Financially, we need to start winning again, for the good of the program and for the good of Mike.

Re: #136 in dropped passes????

There seems to be A LOT of injuries. When these kids turn 60, lord help 'em.

Kidding aside, there's ways to train for resilience and it's not all weight room stuff. Are we injury prone more than our peer schools and are we training right in the offseason?

Buuuuut...if we lose in it, we go back to white, black, white, as we are 1-0 in that combination.
If that were to happen, it won't, but if it were, the yellow pants would be the culprit.

Because we are at home. Which is where we should always wear black.
