What team is he playing on in the video? It’s not FAU? What level is it? It doesn’t seem like D1 football.

Thank you ! I am now starting to get the CAA and Towson vibe.

Thank you! So JMU is the North Dakota State of the Valley and the CAA is also a powerhouse conference. This is great!! Can’t wait for the season!!!

Thanks all for the perspective. Ok, now a question about the CAA? Is it similar to MO Valley in which every game is a battle? Is there a break in top teams to lower-tier teams?

Question: to those of you that have some insight on our team, are we ranked correctly and fairly? Thoughts….

Breakdown: WR 11 CB 7 QB 6 OL 12 DB 8 LS 3 TE 5 LB 13 K/P 4 RB 6 S 2 P/K 1 FB 1 DL 12

Great thank you! I hear SJ Brown is a savage tackler! Looks like good depth as well.

Yes

Defense

Just wondering... I hear a lot about all positions, can someone fill me in on safeties? Do we have safeties that can cover or play the nickel? Is our strong safety like an outside linebacker type? Are the current free safeties play makers? What is the scoop on safeties?

Maybe the best in the FCS!!

Again, I do not know much about this team but from what I can see is a coaching staff that is committed to making a legitimate playoff run. It seems the approach chosen is to utilize the transfer portal talent to do so. I read some postings in which some thought that transfers are kids that weren’t going to start at their other schools, definitely not true. Due to COVID and getting the extra year, the transfer portal is at record numbers and there are many players who needed a change to revive their motivation, position coach left, wanted to try to go power 5, and or graduated and wanted a new challenge. My son would have started for sure but his position coach left and he felt he reached his highest potential with his past coaching staff. i can’t say for sure the approach this staff is using will be the answer for this team but I can say for sure that they raised the competition for spring and are raising the competition for fall camp. I have also seen where FBS transfers come in and compete but do not beat out current FCS starters. Simply, it looks like to me Coach is taking an educated gambling approach in which the odds are in favor of some great competition and all the players, transfers and current will need to bring their A game! I predict we will be strong contenders in the playoffs. Again, never even watched a CAA game, just a hunch😊

I do not know much about this team but if the players that the team has brought in uphold what they were brought in to do, then I believe the playoffs are a reasonable expectation. Offense wins games but the defense wins championships. To add to that, no matter what..... your only as good as your line!

Great investigative work GG Piece!

I am new to the board as well:) I am a parent, but I am not sensi and enjoy the game of football:) I am looking forward to hearing more about this team so I can catch up!
