TuTigers2012

Well Atleast football scored lol. The running joke of the tigers continues

Baltimore city too. Even if the “mayor” doesn’t abide. For now atleast. But damn is that “football team” awful or what?!

When does this defense with FBS players show up? Just asking.

They drew more for the game last night than we did for the football game against them…😂😂

Their fans (and the ones on the Am east message board) are not happy with the loss to lowly Towson. Even if we are bottom of the barrel caa team.. we consistently beat umbc

Crybabies at truck stop U still whinnying after CAA statement. Can they just leave already?!

Also note that we played probably in front of one the largest crowds we will all year

Rebounding 47% of your misses helps a lot. Ball movement was very good and could have had 5-8 more assists if we hit some open shots. To bad we can’t combine hicks and Gibson into one person/guard If Holland ever shows up and can actually shoot.. that would be a huge plus to bring him Gibson and Gray off the bench as shooters. Don’t think any of us should hold our breathe on that though..

A real full court press. We did trap and can do that when you can switch 3-4 spots on the court

Lots of the turnovers were illegal screens and offensive fouls. Have to be happy with the first game. Another shooter or rim protector would help. But the extra passes abs aggressiveness on defense are something new. If someone can tell skery to press, he never will, when he have an opportunity to step on other teams throats.. that will also help a lot

Albany home game. America east has a deal with espn. All home and caa games are on FU sports with the exception of a few cbs sports net games

Espn +. If you have cable you should be able to steam it on smart tv or device

What is the point of fielding a football team anymore? Does it make sense? Fewer kids are playing football as youth, limiting the amount and skills of players. FCS football has been watered down and a bad product for a few years now. 3 of the good FCS programs are leaving the ranks. Besides a few Midwest and northwest schools, fcs football is an afterthought. The Towson program is at best stuck in neutral. A coach whose been at the helm for 12+ years and is a career one game over 500 overall and under 500 in a conference that has gotten worse and worse over the year. Fan interest and attendance keeps dropping lower and lower. Would a change in coaching staff even be worthwhile? Would we see the slight bump when rob took over? Not being able to watch games or other conference teams on tv or on espn streaming is just awful . Getting passed by Elon, Wm, and now URI is just unacceptable. 63 men’s scholarships is a lot. Could those be used elsewhere for other sports? yes. Football is expensive endeavor with such large rosters, equipment, insurance, staff etc. not to mention the numerous uniforms and helmets that this team goes through. They have more helmets than wins this year. Not that the 4000 people who pack the stands of Unitas even notice. Where are we going? I’d like to honestly hear from some of the old players, Ed, etc what you really think about this program. You cannot be proud or happy the direction it’s gone in the past 5 years. What do you want us to do to change? Clearly what is being done is not working. Some think we should add seats and enhance the stadium(LOL). That’s not the answer. We would NEVER be able to compete, draw, or have the allowable infrastructure to move up and expand. Besides Delaware we are the only other program that plays football basketball and lacrosse. It’s tough at this level financially to be successful on the field and court. Especially when others have just 2 main sports to focus on.

Agree with a lot of that. I don’t think the effort is there sometimes. I think we also don’t have a set offensive strategy and try to change it a lot off the players we have. There’s good and bad with that but we need to find an identity (not now this season is over) 100 passes a game is the way of college football now a day. Hence why games on tv take 4+ hours to play

When did McDonald leave?

Haha. This was meant to be a serious post but of course we get the same responses. Again, you are a football alum and can’t be happy (unless you are complete and total idiot, which you are not) with what the program is doing. What would you to do or like then to change/fix? Something isn’t working and hasn’t been for a bit. 20+ redshirt seniors and graduate players, FBS transfers all to fall flat on our faces in a weak caa. Unacceptable. Guess what, next year we will have younger players with less experience and take their licks and again finish 6-5/5-6 and we make excuses that they are young and need to wait another year. Year after year the same song (which leads me to the same anger, frustration and posts) Ha. Sure man, sure.

Would rather be proved wrong but unfortunately there’s a huge sample size to know what happens

Waiting for the unveiling. 5-6 prediction on my part was very accurate

Where is everyone??

Haha. There’s nothing more that I would like than tho hurt Jmus chances. Yes, even more than my dislike for rob and Pat coaching

Not sure they would match up two teams that played the week prior. Jmu is gonna have a bye anyway. This is also assuming we win out (not likely) and other teams ahead of us stumble. we might be a nice parting gift at the end of the season 😂😂

Uninformed press unfortunately. They voted like this before and were one of the members who implemented the rule. Jmu knew what they were doing and now are whining like babies all over the place. I do feel for the fall athletes that are at the end of the season, they should be allowed to compete

2006 and 2011 sucks for all of the athletes minus football but rules are the rules. Don’t feel any remorse for anyone in Harrisonburg

Oh crap. Another thing we agree on. What’s the world coming to?! white T helmet with those gold uniforms and the black tiger Helmet with the black/white uniforms

I mean two different teams made the final four as 11 seeds… but sure
