Interesting. isn’t the field longer too?

Any chance he makes any of the Canadian teams? Idk much about that league.. do they carry 3 abs? Is there practice squad? I remember some on here thinking he’d make the nfl..LOL

I am ok with it if it’s for money saving. Which you are correct it is. 7-4 Towson doesn’t get in over a 7-4 UNH, richmond or WM. Add in a Towson not ranked to begin the season...IT DOESNT MATTER (it does shhh)

Haha what?? JMU wins at home 70-0 and draws 22k We beat Morgan by 7 on the road in front of 3,400 Our problem is never being able to win a big game

All great points. 4 games at Morgan, 3 at home. Pass Unfortunately there are not many good fcs programs in the area that aren’t in the caa. The caa has gotten fat off of the meac and nec in the regular season but it hasn’t helped them in the playoffs. Laying eggs when it counts recently. the goal is to get to the playoffs and when you need 7 wins Atleast to make it and have 3 other likely guaranteed losses .. it’s better to schedule easier teams I’ve always wondered why they didn’t have more events in DC and Philly

Universities don’t make millions off of them. Some schools make a lot, but those are few and far between. If you hate coaches for making a very lucrative living and jumping ship sure, most coaches aren’t worth 1/8th their salaries.

We disagree on a lot runda but you are spot on in this case. Great post. Let them now pay their tuition, books, meals, etc and be taxed on income. The last one might help athletes in the long run...knowing earlier on what Uncle Sam takes from your earnings. The rich get richer with this. Transfer portal is gonna be nuts. Highest bidder gets the best players. Hurts Towson in every sport as we have nothing to show in football and hoops.

Or maybe a playoff win every 7-8 years. Or not choking badly in the last game the last two seasons. Video is pretty neat though. We all rag on (with good reason) the athletic department and their unimaginative, small time thinking, this was a rare win for them though

So the meac has a better rights deal than the caa. Time to move on. Either back or forward

Local Television. LOL

Agreed. Critical as well. Just don’t think we have a direction. We are the only men’s sport in the conference that plays 3 “big” sports. Hard to be good or decent in all of them

Eh. I guess that’s the best home schedule we’ve had

Yup. 7-4 Is going to be tough. 6-5 is more likely. 7-4 might not get you in those 3 losses are blow outs. It does suck that we don’t play Delaware. Maine has UNH. The SUNY schools have each other. Nova and Delaware. Jmu has richmond and WM. I am surprised they didn’t give us Delaware this year knowing that they’d be good and how unfavorable the folks in Richmond feel about us

Eh no not really. northeastern has had Michigan state, st bona, Oakland odu uab richmond davidson hof has had San Jose state, cal state Fullerton, st bona, Villanova (next door) Drexel has had penn state (next door) and obviously the other Philly teams Delaware- nova (neutral) Notre dame uncg Buffalo USF st bona wm- odu st joes mason Marshall wofford liberty Charlotte jmu- UVA x2 (one for new arena one not) Charlotte richmond. Marshall app state elon- Duke (next door) Unc (new arena) uncg, USF, furman Charlotte uncw- unc Stanford uncg Davidson Charlotte Charleston- Oklahoma state, lsu miami (fl) vcu uri Davidson obviously geography plays a role and we aren’t around many decent to good programs. Other schools have gotten neutral site or home games against much better names. Sometimes it takes creativity and flexibility which our athletic department doesn’t posses agree temple was better than tcu. Our best home games since 2010... oregon state, temple, odu, Kent state, gw?

He has no incentive to. It would be a loss and he can pad his record against d3 and bad local teams. Other big programs travel to caa schools... our AD and coach just suck

I think we all would but don’t hold your breath. The local teams think they are to good. Pat, for as well traveled as he’s been, doesn’t seem to have the connections to make it work. Add in our athletic department incompetence and we have coppin, Loyola, Lasalle and goucher. every other caa school has gotten it done recently except us...

Thanks Rob!

Fcs football. They just know 10 or so teams and then slot the rest in. Gotta love unh at 22

I don’t know about other teams (they likely have them too) but it seems like we always get a few injuries or late transfers/quitting players deplete a key position. Obviously football is a violent sport and injuries happen, but it just seems like by late October early November we are starting someone with no experience. We are all for having depth and the way college sports is now, don’t give a rats ass where and how they get here. Players transferring in abs out are here now, and teams are trying to adapt. The elusive Towson defense on football is like the point guard for hoops. We hear about it and get excited but year in and year out it’s a failure. Soft zone and zero ability to get to the qb have been issues forever. Have we had a guy with more than 7 sacks in a season since delaire?

Lol. Even at this level it’s a business. Coaches are always looking for an upgrade and especially one who needs to pull out all the stops to keep his job.

RIP godfather

An undefeated caa season is gonna be very very tough.

Hahah. Due to athletic department incompetence or actually making the playoffs and winning there??

With all the player movement, some teams playing in the selling, some not, it’s tough. But there are 3 guaranteed Ls on there. 7-4/6-5/5-6

Haha
