  1. Plus McCasland was not available when Wrenn was hired. Saying we should have fired Bedford when Wrenn was means no McCasland! McCasland's time here more than made up for an extra year of Bedford.
  2. I suspect the conference and ESPN will work with the schools to get teams into games that will generate the best crowds and best publicity possible.
  3. Yes, even the briefest conversation should convince anyone he really, REALLY wants to win here!
  4. I'm hopeful someone cautions DT and any other players to be very careful with NIL promises. It's currently against the rules to get a signed NIL deal until AFTER you are on campus and then you can't transfer that year. The coach at UNLV readily admits that one of his assistants told that QB how much he'd get and the LATER said what the coach says doesn't really count - it's all up to the collectives who won't commit till you're registered and on campus! UGA and at least one other FBS school in the state of Georgia have "committed" to more NIL than they have money to pay. But the way the system is set up the players can't do anything about it. The NCAA says they are getting dozens of phone calls from players who transferred and found out the promised NIL wasn't there and often their scholarships weren't either! Caveat Lusor (Player beware!)
  5. Yes, he's been there, done that, and got the t-shirt. No reason to go for a coordinator position unless we let him go.
  6. Do you guys realize most of the schools at the G5 level get most of their wins from teams with losing records? I'm just making sure everyone understands the reality here. Ranked in order of AAC standings - 1. Army - 7-0 with 1 win against a team with a winning record - FCS Lehigh 2. Navy - 6-0 with 1 win against a team with a winning record - Memphis 3. Tulane - 5-2 with 1 win against a team with a winning record - Louisiana 4. Memphis 6-1 with 1 win against a team with a winning record which was us! 5. Charlotte was 3-4 with 0 wins against teams with a winning record 6. NT - 5-2 with 0 wins against teams with a winning record 7. ECU - 3-4 with 0 wins against teams with a winning record I will stop researching the rest of AAC as you can see no G5 teams beat many teams with winning records. If we can beat either Tulane or Army, we'll be right there in with the same number of wins - one - against teams with winning records.
  7. Those in favor of a midseason firing of Caponi should look to Purdue firing Graham Harrell. Purdue on the year averages 20.28 points per game. In 4 games before firing Harrell they averaged 21.75. In 3 games since firing him they average 20.80 points. That's close enough I'd all it no change. For no change, they have added work to the staff, taken away preparation time for the team, still paid Harrell his annual salary, confused potential recruits, and still lost three more games. Wait til the end of the season to make coaching changes!
  8. To whom is this message intended? Firing coordinators during the season almost never does much to improve play. You can’t bring in new players, you can install a totally new system, any new outside coordinator won’t know the players. Is this just to make the fans feel better? It makes fans feel better till the next loss or just poor performance when they will be screaming to fire the next coach. I notice the folks that get paid to analyze football teams almost never call for midseason coordinator firings because you’re spending money with no positive result.
  9. Yeah, except the Pac-X already lost the P. They are a G league now.
  10. Great article from DCTF on the Mean Green. Lots of detail on some of the plays from the FAU game. Well worth the read! https://www.texasfootball.com/article/2024/10/17/how-north-texas-built-the-g5-s-best-passing-attack?fbclid=IwY2xjawF-Wl9leHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHW2eBwpnLwZyztIAL8tdlq7qfOktSoFrNGykO6nixJ64Q-Ne8LFoPOsAUQ_aem_jc36aXzoWywsBoQq_DC_OQ
  11. He wasn't gone as of 30 minutes ago. And according to the OU student paper, they don't think he'll get fired during the season as OU has had a LOT of injuries. But he is clearly on the hot seat! https://www.oudaily.com/sports/ou-oklahoma-sooners-football-mailbag-seth-littrell-joe-jon-finley-michael-hawkins-jr-sec/article_5c3b8954-8a37-11ef-a0b4-e77295a4a446.html
  12. Remember, the real reason for a "point spread" is to get roughly the same amount of money bet on both sides of the proposition.
  13. It's very low, but not zero! People in the Blue Ridge Mountains for out it's never zero!
