Howard would be a cool game for us I think. would draw a decent crowd and playing a decent team, but idk how well that’ll work out for us in the scoreboard Howard was great last year

It’s too late (or too early, depending on how you look at it) for an April fools joke). I think I saw this on an old Twilight Zone episode. Next I suppose Jayden Cole will sign with Duke

On account of the fact that Brendan Sorsby is a confirmed scumbag who has wagered on his own teams/games in the past, the legitimacy of our game against UC in 2024 should be called into question......thereby I'm retroactively awarding us a W against the Bearcats. 😉

4 FCS Teams Hot Seat - Towson

Good to see a former player on the staff. I believe he’s the first such player to now be on the coaching staff certainly under Skerry, and maybe going back well before that. (Maybe the first ever?🤷‍♂️). Dude gave it everything he had as a player. Maybe he can be of some benefit to Embeya, Holmes and Atkinson. Welcome back Kotter, I mean TPR 🤣

Great question. I know there probably isn't much clamor for a job with this little support. However, I feel like our AD should have some decent connections having been at South Carolina when they won a national title in 2011 and having that baseball coach sing his praises when hew as hired here. This feels like a perfect job for a late 20s or early 30s former player who wants to be a coach, has little to no experience, and has some different ideas they want to try. Tyner seemed like he had some good experiences, but the deck is stacked pretty high against this program. I want someone who is a little cocky and is too young to care what people think about the program. It still probably won't matter, but it seems like a good space to take a chance on someone and I would think Eigonbrot might have access to some of of those names through his baseball connections.

Asfaw out?

Our conference sucks, which is a big part of the problem. If this was 2023, I’d agree but we won 25 straight conference games until that choke job in the finals, two straight CAA titles and nine straight wins overall including the UVa win. BTW, we did that with our second leading goal scorer out for most of the season and a defense that had a lot of experience. To think a CAA team is going to be consistently in the top 10 is a nearly impossible ask. 2019 is seven years ago. A lot of things have changed. Should we be a solid tournament contender every season? Sure. Do I ask the question every season about us not using the transfer portal? Of course. I am disappointed in the loss to SB as much as anyone but this program is the least of our worries when it comes to Towson Athletics.

Penn State, Delaware, UMass, St Joes, Villanova all used to be conference games. we used to play UMD every year. we haven't played them at all since 2019 and since 2011 in the regular season. in 2019 we were ranked #1 in the country and consistently in the top 20, able to make the tournament as an at-large. made the final 4 in 2017. now we are losing to Stony Brook at home in a conference final. playing hampton, fairfield, monmouth... not exactly what I think of when I think lacrosse powerhouses. it's been 10 years since we went on any serious run.

First puzzle piece...Utah https://x.com/RunninHoopsPod/status/2055299840054333897?s=20

A direct excerpt from the press release announcing Tyner’s retirement…. “The Towson Athletics department has formalized a search committee and will conduct a nationwide search for its next head coach.” How convenient and miraculous that of all the coaches the “committee” researched and interviewed in their exhaustive nationwide search, the perfect option was just a few short miles down the street. 🙄 Our athletic department leadership is a joke.

Excuse me what?

Samb is too good for us? Kevin Willard must have had 10 Docs Hops before that signing. Good for Abdou, hopefully he is getting a nice check to sit on the bench at Nova

This seems like a very “Towson” hire. I really hope Liam Bowen is the answer to turning around our program but….

Very interesting! Of course, that could mean anything from a current sitting HC at a high school, DIII or NAIA program, but interesting nonetheless.

If that is the case, someone also needs to also investigate the Cincinnati defense that gave up 438 total yards and 21 first downs to Towson. Those were both totals that were decently above our season average that year.

The mind boggling part of this story is that a “so-called judge” in Texas has granted this degenerate’s (who betted on games involving his own team) request to be allowed to play for Texas Tech this upcoming season. It’s rulings like this that have made the NCAA largely a toothless tiger. If you can’t ban a guy like this, who can you ban? Answer..,probably no one. Maybe next we’ll have guys who have admitted to fixing games being allowed to play. Just another reason it’s becoming increasingly difficult for me to continue to be a fan of college sports

He probably had the over based off how he played.

Yeah, ZMG is probably going to come with a high price tag and I would say he's a long shot to come here, but it's a good thing that he's visiting. You also never know nowadays whether a guy can end up here down the road. Whether he's the most highly-rated guy coming out of HS if he signs? I guess it depends on the site. 247Sports has him fifth in the state.

Very good list of offers, that’s intriguing

Summer practice doesn’t start for another week and a half.

Is our social media team MIA for summer or what’s going on? Seen 0 videos of our guys practicing except from a few incoming transfers. Our CAA counterparts have been pumping several videos out of now of their guys hitting the boards ..

We have a bad field and no lights, which hampers us to begin with. Weather, support and baseball, unfortunately not being the big the spring sport in this area, also hurts. If we are now starting to invest more in the program, then good and that should start showing some dividends soon.

Against the Orioles, bittersweet. But happy for him.

Feel like we should have tigers in the pros section here since the only Tiger currently playing at the highest league, is in MLB. Richie is having a good season so far .271 average .388 OBP 1. HR 14 rbis. .730 OPS.6 steals and a .4 WAR for the team with best record in baseball. Had the winning hit in the last two games as well

BTW… W&M opted out of the House Settlement and moved to the PL. There is no revenue sharing for FB at W&M. This was a cost cutting move for them…the budget number this clown is using is bogus . They will continue to spend less than Towson.

You might get your wish granted. I'm trying to be in Seattle that weekend and SLC would be an excellent stopover point on my way there.

Fresh eyes 👀 always a positive 👏🏀

Agreed. One of my favorites, and a guy who committed to this mess of a program when they were 1-31. We did have Gary Neal on the staff a few years back. While a solid player, who always played hard and tough, it's not like he was Kareem or Hakeem, or eve Akeem out there. Was at Arkansas prior, so hopefully his experience being in the SEC and with a winner rubs off!

Nads should be all over this.

Went to work out today at Burdick and drove by a decent crowd. Must have been a fun game, stands were 90% full with quite a few watching from the walkway overlooking the field.

Most wins since 2014. Though 9-21 in the league with the weaker division

Last season and now again this season.. a true melting pot squad.. 🇩🇪🇫🇷🇪🇸🇸🇳

It’s funny how things work out sometimes. One of my best friends is a CU grad, and lives not far from Boulder. So when we played CU a few years ago, I went out for the game. My other best friend, who I’ve known since 7th grade, lives in, wait for it …SLC, so I’ll be going out for that game

I think part of the reason for playing these guaranteed games, and we will play at least three again this season, is to pay for these multiple home games. It's just the way things are done nowadays, unfortunately, and if there is anything left, I assume it goes to NIL/rev. But the school handles most of the money paid towards the student-athlete.

Home and homes against Jmu and Delaware would be ideal. No reason not to play eachother every year. Wish we could be forward thinking (and have the money) to host a MTE again. I know we wouldn’t (or maybe it’s just other teams so scared of us) but a 2 for with Richmond vcu mason st joes would be cool too

Nothing surprising about the video. Womack now 236 at 6-6 with 5% body fat.

… this should be interesting https://thetowerlight.com/towson-university-athletics-fees-to-increase-for-fall-2026-semester/

This athletic department is cursed
