Tamir only played 1+ seasons so he might have eligibility left at 46 or whatever he is. Michael Hunt was the coach and he threw a chair at him in the locker room probably because he was goofing off on the bench against Morgan State. Hunt didn’t want to play him, move the schedule around for him due to his religious practices. The previous coach, Mike Jaskulski, bent over backwards to not play on Saturday afternoons and play mostly zone because Tamir was not fleet of foot. He was a D2 or 3 talent. Good passer. I remember when he scored 11 points against Villanova and then never really played up to that level.

Mor Seck cost a lot last season. If he wants to play for free, I’d consider.

Here’s a Flo preview

We're about 11 days away from the opener on Thursday, Aug. 27 against Maine. Is Towson football ready for their breakout season under 4th-year head coach Pete Shinnick? Here are the keys to a successful (playoffs) season. Going 6-2 in the CAA and 2-2 in the OOC is a must. 1)PASS RUSH. The defense accumulated just 18 sacks last season. The leader was LB Ja'Mez Drummer, who had 4 sacks and 4 QB hurries. Branson Peters had 3 sacks and 7 QB hurries. Both are gone. 2)STOP THE RUN. The Tigers allowed a pitiful 171.5 yards per game on the ground last season and 4.4 yards per carry. Their top 12 leading tacklers are gone. Two key DL (Aaron Clark, JR Stegall) have moved on to FBS schools. 3)MUST BE ABLE to RUN the FOOTBALL. Towson averaged a pitiful 3.6 yards per carry. Some of that was due to defenses stacking the box. 4)OFFENSIVE LINE HAS TO BE BETTER. The O-line was experienced last season, but KJ Brooks, coming off a devastating leg injury, was not the same player and started the season at LG, before moving back to RT. The center position rotated last season with Jorden Nelson starting and Ian Markham-Miller filling in. Interior play was inconsistent. 5)THIRD DOWN CONVERSIONS on DEFENSE has to IMPROVE. Last season, they allowed teams to convert 44.64% of their third downs and 68% (17 of 25) on fourth downs. The year before was 41.72% and 50% on 4th downs. 6)TIME OF POSSESSION was NOT GOOD LAST SEASON. Mainly due to a lack of running game, the Tigers averaged just 26:40 per game, while opponents averaged 33:20. 7)PASSING GAME ACCURACY. As Indorf evolves, he should improve his accuracy. Towson ranked 10th in the CAA at 58.71% completion rate. 8)TURNOVER MARGIN. Towson ranked 8th in the CAA last season with a 0 TO margin. They forced just eight interceptions and five fumbles, while fumbling nine times and tossing 4 picks. There will be 10 new starters on defense under a 4-3 scheme. Ben Kumpon, who played as a true freshman last season at linebacker with 33 tackles. CB Zakaa Brown (21 tackles, 1 INT, 3PBU). NG Shamir Boyd (20 tackles) is the lone returning starter. S TJ Sands, who had 15 tackles last season, is in the mix at safety. Cody Williams (9 tackles) is an expected starter at safety. Asaiah Hamond (7 tackles) will play a lot more this season at DT and Edge. The key is finding a pass rush. Added speed from returners in LBs Chris Koffi and Seth Chesnutt, who played sparingly in their first seasons. Middle linebacker Jayden Johnson is extremely impressive and has experience at Marshall and Lindenwood. He was one of the most impressive players in the spring. Seth Hampton isn't big (5-11, 220), but had 80 tackles at North Alabama last season. I would think that the additions of Dennious Jackson (6-3, 355), DE Weston Woodard (6-5, 270), Breydon Byrd (6-4, 275), Zach Dantzlerward (6-4, 290) and Seydou Konate (6-3, 295). Also add freshman Hayden Loveless (6-1, 290) and there is some serious beef. Now the key is whether they can set the Edge and will find more ways to get pressure from rushing 4 and more. On offense, Indorf should be better but the WRs corps is brand new. Cleveland Charlton and Jarvis Jones played last season but were limited. Aaron Enterline (Penn State) and Jashan Amin (Monroe CC) are going to be in the starting mix. Watch TE CJ Schaeffer (6-3, 260) to make a big leap this season. The biggest question then becomes the O-line. Will the transfers (RJ Adams, Aidan Johnson, Josh Gaffney) help improve the run blocking? Thought the pass blocking was solid last season. They're deeper at running back. Kemarrion Battles showed potential last season and should have started as a true freshman. Xavier Pugh has more size and power. Assuming they are 1-2 in some form or fashion and that Tristen Kenan and Caddy Phillips are also in the mix. The should be back to averaging over 4ypc. It will be interesting to see how some of the coaching changes will impact both sides of the ball. Victor Santa Cruz is the DB coach but also the Sp Teams coordinator. He was head coach at Azusa Pacific from 2006-19. He was DC under Shinnck there in 2004-05. Was also DC at Hawaii when they went to the New Mexico Bowl in 2020. Kal-El Statham is the new Edges Coach. He was assistant Dline coach at FAU last year. New TE coach is Nick Verna, who was recruiting coordinator at Furman and also coach ed the TEs.

Jashaun Amin is No. 1 https://www.instagram.com/p/DcBpoSYGdua/?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== https://www.instagram.com/reel/Db8tH5URaht/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==

Shinnick opening comment "Our guys have competed hard. Got a lot of work in. Covered all the situations. Excited about where we are after 16 practices." Indorf "He looks really good. Healed up. Where we want him to be. Gotten better every day of camp." On competitions "Ian Miller has kind of edged out Joden (Nelson) right now (for center), but we still have time. WR. Have about 5-6 guys rotating through. Kemarion Battles has solidified the running back spot but very good competition behind that. D-line. Our starters are set. All 11 on defense are set. Really good competition for the backup spots. " True freshman surprises? "Chase Wilburn (6-0, 225 LB) is coming on. Hadyen Loveless (6-1, 290) and TJ Turner (6-2, 190, DB). Zion Copeland will be a starter on the Dline. Boyd will be a starter and leader." On new scheme and Edge "Has been huge. Has created a lot of pressure. That's been a big help." On pressure today "All those guys from that class a year ago, they're playing at a very high level." On LT competition "Good competition. RJ has come in and has done a really nice job. Williams has continued to progress. Jason Tulloch has continued to get better." On CBs "Cooper looks very very good. Za Brown looks very good. Myles Johnson looks very good. Steed is in the mix for a 2 spot." On safety "TJ Sands and Meeko Lodge battling for 2nd safety spot. Meeko is playing the best football that I've seen. Cody Williams is the starter." On Kicking game "Still competition. Owen (Scheihing) and Danny. Owen for punting spot and Danny (Anderla) for long snapping spot." He didn't mention the kicker as Owen Scheining has been booming the punts since the spring. Might see a pleasant surprise next week. On what they need to do before Game 1 "Have to fine-tune the details. Miscue here and there, we have to clean that up."

Practice update. Unfortunately, they've been scrimmaging in the middle of the week and on Thursday, maybe because the Maine game is on Thursday. I can't get out in the middle of the week during the day so I had to watch today's morning practice in pads but shorts. They went to just 10am but I did get some info and Pete's interview at the end. Will I be back before the 27th? Probably not, but I saw enough in the spring to tell me a few things: 1)Much faster team on defense. I think we're looking at Dennious Jackson (6-3, 355), Zion Copeland (6-3, 305) and Shamir Boyd (6-2, 312) up front. Copeland is r-freshman and has really come on. Asaiah Hamond (6-5, 290) is in the mix, likely at the Edge with Weston Woodard (6-5, 275) from Liberty. Destin Simmons (6-5, 245) is a talented backup that I can see playing with the second team. However, I've seen a lot of Chris Koffi (6-1, 235) lined up on the Edge to provide speed. They also really like freshmen nose guards Hayden Loveless (6-1, 290) and Zack Philpott (6-1, 295). With him, Seth Hampton (5-11, 215), Jadyn Johnson (6-1, 230) and Ben Kumpon (6-1, 225), this has a chance to be the best group of linebackers we've had in a long time but I know I've built them up before. I just haven't seen this kind of speed on a defense in a long time. Secondary will be interesting because the safeties are inexperienced. Cody Williams (6-0, 195) from DeMatha, did play some last season and he's a true sophomore. Meeko Lodge (6-3, 210) provides good size. I'm a bit surprised at the cornerback situation. Marquise Cooper (5-11, 190) from Buffalo is a given. Zakaa Brown (6-1, 185) is back for his junior season and he takes over at the other corner spot. I thought that would be Tyson Steed (6-1, 180) from Bowling Green, who had a very good spring. Furman transfer Eddie Jackson III (6-0, 175) is also in the mix. 2)Offense is pretty much set. Didn't see Tristen Kenan (5-10, 200) out there, the transfer from Gannon and Maine, but there were a million number changes. I did see Kemarrion Battles line up as the starting running back and apparently, he's the guy, but after I saw Xavier Pugh in the spring with Battles out with an injury, I thought Pugh would be the guy. Again, they do some strange things and I wouldn't be shocked if it's Pugh and Battles with Caddy Phillips as the third-down back and third back. But who knows? I like Battles but Pugh is bigger, stronger and more of an every-down back who can give you 20+ carries. Unlike last season, they do have more options. If they can't run the ball, this season is effed. The O-line added grad student RJ Adams (6-4, 335) after the spring. He's a monster and looks more like a right tackle TBH but, apparently he beat out Florida transfer Mike Williams (6-6, 315). I do like the guards: Jeff Gaffney (6-3, 315) from Albany and Aidan Johnson (6-3, 310) from Ohio. Gaffney started at right guard last season, Johnson, who played at Good Counsel, played in six games for Ohio. Ian Markham-Miller (6-3, 315) is the likely starter at center. Nothing against Joden Nelson (6-4, 295), but I prefer the bigger, mauler-types to help the running game. Williams, Nelson, Jason Tulloch (6-4, 295), T'Khi Alexander (6-6, 300) and Holy Cross transfer Ashton Booker (6-4, 340) provide depth. Indorf looked solid and is healthy after a spring where he was limited due to injury. Davis should be the backup though Myles Fulton has the experience and could run some. Davis still makes throws on the run that I've rarely seen Towson QBs make with accuracy. The bigger question is consistency and not holding onto the ball too long in the pocket. The receivers keep impressing me even if I'm not sure about a No. 1. Jashaun Amin (5-11, 175) despite not being very big, might be that guy. The Monroe CC transfer might be the fastest receiver. Aaron Enterline (6-2, 195) from Penn State, Jarvis Jones (6-2, 200) and Cleveland Charlton (6-5, 210) are going be the top three guys along with Enterline. Not sure about the slot though we have plenty of options including Cody Zyzmansky (6-0, 212), a r-freshman from Salem, N.H. Happy to see CJ Schaefer (6-3, 260) at tight end. Was very impressed with him in the spring as a receiver and blocker. I also like true freshman Xavier Colbert (6-3, 225). Kicking game is still an issue but should be solved next week. Shinnick is coming up.

Few posters on here drink the kool-aid. Yes, there are a few, but most know the disappointments of the past and it's f-ing ok to be cautiously optimistic about this year's team, because despite the talent, who the hell knows how we're going to do with 11 new players, including the r-freshmen? But I do know one thing: there's a reason Towson has been mentioned in the top four from a lot of these Twitter/X posters who are not Towson fans. Despite a disappointing 9-9 in the CAA last season, Towson is now 63-27 in their last 90 regular-season conference games over five seasons. Why should we be a top 4/5 team? A lot of that has to do with money, though I think Stony Brook is creeping up in that category. I wouldn't be surprised to see them or Monmouth make another semifinal or final run. I'll agree that for us to get to that next level, we need to push pace more, epsecially with this particular team and yes, we can always use more shooters. Sajid is a start, as is the kid next season that we just got a commit from, Kirby Duran. Roseborough showed he could shoot it in 11 games last season at SJ State and I was impressed with him this summer. Hell, if there was an affordable three-point shooter available, I'd add a 15th ship because I don't know about Womack, Stanford, Badalou, Doerr and Barton as 3-point shooters, though Stanford has some of a middie game. Also, if we had a semblance of a low-post game from a big man, it would help. I think Womack at 235, could maybe use some of that bulk but I saw him get his shot blocked way too often last season. That's a product of being 6-6 with average length and not an explosive athlete. Holmes could be something but I'm not there yet. If everything was perfect, and because you're going to have to add 5-6 new players every season most likely, we'd add a CT-type-big at 6-9 or taller every season and surround him with a 6-2 or taller point guard who can push it and defend, with shooters everywhere. That's the formula to win that UNCW has used, and they've proven that you don't need superstars like Hofstra (Davis) or CofC (Brzovic) to win the Chip.

I believe you can play five years at the same school. Football has a few players who might return and already played four years.

They have the most money. I’d be shocked if he didn’t cost at least a million.
