I don't want a coach, I want a quarterback.

A&M's move to the SEC doesn't happen if multiple dominoes don't fall before their move. Not because they always wanted to but needed "cover". Guess it's hard to prove a negative but if Nebraska and Colorado never leave the Big 12 do the Aggies go the SEC?

That's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. First off, you're telling me the A$M always wanted to be in the SEC? They didn't get to pick the SEC, the SEC picked them and that move never happens without other conference realignment and the LHN. A$M is the most awesome school ever to get Nebraska and Colorado to leave, then somehow get UT to start the Longhorn Network, and start the idea of the super-conference all so they can finally have cover to leave for the SEC. Those Aggies are brilliant!! By the way, I say history and affliation have nothing to do with conference realignment and can point out numerous examples (Maryland to the Big 10, Boise and SDSU to the Big East, Missouri to the SEC, Syracuse and Pitt to the ACC) and you give me one. A dubious one at that. For the most part none of this has been predictable and to say that we can predict future alignment by looking at the past? Sorry just don't buy it. But hey, if you can find a post from days gone by where you predicted Boise in the Big East, Maryland in the Big Ten, TCU to the Big 12, not to mention all the other craziness that has happen, i'd love to see it.

History or affliation has played no role in conference alignment. To me CUSA has made a huge mistake by taking in so many schools. If the Big East does impode I can't see SMU, Houston, Memphis, Tulane and the others coming back to make up a 20+ team conference with the likes of FIU, ODU, FAU, UTSA, and us among others. If MWC is smart they stay at 10-12 teams and have room for the western schools if they come back. Then again, smart has played no role in conference alignment.

He is a beast and it's a bit of a crime he doesn't get more press. He's a junior too I think.

This isn't another "closed practices" complaint but in year's past we had somewhat of a idea what we had in the other QBs from watching practice or at least some snaps in games. Not sure if we know how much of an option the other guys are. I know it is coach speak, but the "we like the guys we have" answer just makes me roll my eyes. 45-0 ASU. They gotta be hoping and praying they can keep Malzahn in Jonesboro.

He is such an unknown I don't want to entirely rely on somebody who hasn't played football in a couple years. And if he doesn't work out, the program is set back a couple more years.

He's killing Middle in the first half. 13 for 14 with two tds. ASU up 35-0 at half. We need a mobile and accurate quarterback now. Still early in the process but we have to sign a quarterback this year.

I would have rather lost this game with DT throwing 5 pick 6s rather than us cower in a shell and play scared. It's the last game of another bad season. Yeah, sure, let's play scared. The coaching staff lost the games to Troy and WKU. Flat out.

Not a happy camper. Tired of Dan blaming the culture here and how he's here to save the day. Oh yeah, and those "successful" Sun Belt teams of the early 2000s? They'd beat your boys by 30 and only because Dickey ran the ball the entire second half. The Sun Belt wasn't too impressed with your nice shiny ring. Time to can the speeches and roll up the sleeves. This team needs work.

Ball game. I guess you could blame me for jinxing us. I prefer to blame our scared and piss poor coaching.

4th and four and we throw behind the line of scrimmage. Tired of the rah rah Dan. How bout win some games.

3rd and 5. We throw a one yard pass. nuff said.

We never keep the foot on the gas. Hell, we don't even start the car when we have a lead. And now we are behind. And we have to rely on Thompson.

Excuse me while I remove all the sharp objects out of the house.

Maybe one day we'll have a QB that we can trust to make a play on third down. Maybe.

Touchdown bad guys. It ain't easy being Green.

Not sure I like that throw but I like the result. First down throw again. Touchdown good guys.

Two consecutive throws on first down. Yes!

We're 4-7, not exactly worried about the jinx factor.

It seems pretty simple. If you have a QB and WRs who can throw and catch, we are in trouble. WKU doesn't. Come on Green. They are giving us the game, let's take it.

Defense playing tough. I hate to to ask this but with all the breaks we are getting how can we possibly lose this game?

Man, if the play breaks down Thompson is lost.

Thompson overthrew (sigh) but at least we threw the ball downfield on first down.

Here we go. The running game stalls and we can't throw the ball downfield. Third and six and we throw the ball behind the line of scrimmage. We're getting a lot of breaks, but not taking advantage of them.
