I mean...

As I said in a chat a couple games back, what's it say about the coaching staff and style of play that he couldn't see the field at RUTGERS?? Their stupidity is our gain, that's for sure.

Great article.

TU picked to finish last in the conference, barely behind Drexel. Objectively, it’s hard to argue with that, given that we return only 3 players from last year’s team, with those 3 having averaged about 12 points a game, combined. Maybe we’ll surprise a few people along the way, one can only hope. Realistically though, this season may be about building for next season & beyond

Also wanted to give props to the staff and school for the reception. The meet and greet with the players was awesome I enjoyed it very much

What is up with Attendance & Game Promotion?
Moleman replied to TheGoldCrotchPiece's topic in Football Talk
Like to point out something that's become an issue for those who DID make it inside the stadium, @ least in the last couple games which I came to: Too Few Game Programs! Had to search all around at the start of the SBU game for one. After I asked about 10 people on both sides of the stadium, somebody on the north side had a box w about 8 left.. I was lucky then, because ditto for the Bill & Mary contest. I was seated for 10 minutes; the national anthem had just played. Since I gave my last hard-won program to a fellow TU alum @ my work, I now wanted another one; the search commenced. But after checking on both sides of stadium w another ton of people again this time, apologies instead of a game program... Is that how it goes at (relatively) big college football games these days? @ Navy? Villanova, Kennasaw St or Maryland?.. I feel that's messed up.. -

I want the JMU game to be for the CAA championship! However, there’s a long way to go before we can talk about that game. What I saw lfroM Towson last Saturday won’t get us there.....
-
Yes, that would be ideal, but I think that Elon loss got their attention and focus
-
True
-
same with jacksonville state and SHSU, they are vastly overrated and get smoked by a good team in the playoffs every year.
-
The pollsters do each other favors. The NCAA wants to create regional interest with 1AA FB. A team from the Big South cannot create a strong enough resume during the course of a season. Kennesaw is benefiting from the influence the committee has over the polls. If you rank em high enough early on and they lose 1 game then at 10-1 they look good for a seed and home games with the SoCon.
-
As things are shaping up, just need JMU to find another loss before we play them. That way, it’s possible that game won’t matter for the CAA title. THAT is what we should start looking at now. Everything else would take care of itself.
