It is nice to have two weeks to prepare for Navy's option.

Thank you. And by the way, Tre Newton is Riley's best friend per many reports in the media.

Being in Houston, the news about the Mavericks is few and far between.

Dodge and staff signed 19 players on signing day 2007 with the 10 being white, 8 black and 1 hispanic. They signed two players over the summer, Roman and Kaiser, who are both white. The 11 verbals for 2008 are 6 black and 5 white. I state the above because some have made mention that NT will be "lilly white" at the skill positions in 08, or that we are targeting white athletes. I'm sorry, but I just don't see this and don't think race was an issue with Green's discipline on the sideline. If we are "all white" at the skill positions, then that is because the coaches think those players give us the best chance to win and not because of the color of their skin. Say what you want about NT, but it has celebrated diversity for years and integrated athletically long before any of the SWC schools. I don't know any of the coaches personally, but find it interesting that Dodge and his staff are held in high regard by the HS coaches across this state. I don't think that would be the case if they were racist. I also don't know Dominique Green and I didn't witness the issue on the sideline, but it appears that he has blown his situation of being disciplined way out of proportion and nobody wins when claims of this nature are made, whether they are true or not.

Homecoming This made me laugh out loud:

You want to know why I choose to look at this situation realistically and give Dodge a year to get his system in place? Here are the reasons: 1. Dodge didn't arrive on campus until late in December. 2. Dodge had to hire a staff before he could even recruit. 3. He put together one of our finest recruiting classes, on paper, in the last few years in 17 days. 4. He arrived to find 3 WR's on scholarship when his offense regularly utilizes a minimum of 4. 5. He arrived to find players that had been "negatively motivated" by the previous staff with little regard to teaching. 6. He arrived to a program that had won 5 games in the previous 2 seasons. Give the man some time.

You're stuttering.

Now that's funny!

The timing of this was typical Boras/A-Ho...ARod trying to steal the attention away from the World Series. Pure Sorriness.

I expected the defense to be as good or better than last year, but I expected the offense to struggle all year with an offensive that emphasizes the passing game being instituted with players recruited for a running game. Heck, NT only had 3 receivers on scholarship 8 months ago.

They want to check out the waterless urinals.

I tuned into KAFR 88.3 at 6:45pm last night and didn't hear one second of the game, just a talk show. The week of the ULM game, I listened to the first half, tuned in for the second half and it was their normal broadcasting. Not sure who is in charge of the MGRN, but the Conroe station isn't doing their job.

Not very accurate considering MTSU is not a level above the rest of the Sun Belt, and our mistakes led to many of their points. He was right in that they won, but the fluff around his prediction is way off.

I'm fully aware, but many BcS conference schools emphasize one sport over another, Kentucky, Duke, etc... and have to make a committment to be successful across the board. I know money is not an issue, but if you think football gets equal billing at Kentucky and Duke as basketball then you are mistaken.

Classy. Deal with the anger in a positive manner. I'll provide you with a video of the game at MTSU where Branch got hammered twice.

I'm not scared of Dodge picking up a leaving because of criticism, but I am tired of people not looking at the situation he inherited realistically. Dodge is committed to NT, and we should realistically look at the hand he was dealt upon arrival and give him and his staff some time to implement their system and recruit players to fit this system.

I know, the sky is falling. What did you expect after a 3-8 season of Dickey ball?

What? The future doesn't look bright? The future would be the freshmen on this team and the verbals we have to this point. Seems pretty good to me. Being run into the ground? Please explain What opportunity was missed last year? Been supporting the team all my life and won't be changing now. It is unbelievable the lack of patience with the new coaching staff!

I can't get my pants rolled up any higher!

What are you drinking? The MTSU/NT game when Jamel got hit twice on punt returns was at MTSU, and I've got the video to back it up. FAU has beat us every time we've played them, so please tell me when we would have needed 2nd stringers against them. New Orleans Bowl story, like the rest, are total B.S. If you act like that, I'm embarrased to have you as a fan of NT. You should go back to Baton Rouge where behavior of that nature is appreciated.

Some days I look back and wonder: "Why in the world did you start that thread!"

As usual, our public servant to the rescue. Thank goodness you don't stop at fighting fires! Well done and proof there is a God! Although, pic #6 needs to turn in her man card.

Two things: 1. Fry went to Iowa. 2. NT admin sent us to 1AA.

Doesn't Dominique Green return, and isn't Dawson a LB and not a DB?

Love the outfit, but the women aren't head turners. Just my opinion.
