Yes that happened his freshman season of 2007. He came back and played his sophomore season in 2008 as well. https://www.mysanantonio.com/sports/college_sports/college_football/article/ex-heights-qb-vizza-tossed-football-and-scored-817823.php

Can’t risk giving any advantages to the 7-6 6th best team in the Sun Belt.

I’m disappointed in you fellas for leaving these gems out.

I had exactly the same list. Greene, Haynes, Mitchell, and Cobbs

You are absolutely wrong. I know for a fact Riley was still at Southlake in 2007 because I saw him at the OU game that year. I also know for a fact that Riley played receiver as a true freshman in 2008 while Vizza remained our starting quarterback. You may be correct about him transferring out because he expected Riley to take over in 2009, which would have been Vizza’s junior season. Or maybe it was other recreational activities that were the driver behind him moving on. Only Gio knows. https://www.sports-reference.com/cfb/players/giovanni-vizza-1/gamelog/2008/ https://www.sports-reference.com/cfb/players/riley-dodge-1/gamelog/2008/

Not entirely accurate. Vizza was our starter in 2007 and 2008. Riley played receiver as a true freshman in 2008 and because our starting quarterback in 2009 until he got injured. The start to the 2009 season was actually very exciting with Riley at the helm. We beat Ball State on the road and ended up losing a close overtime game to Ohio in a monsoon. Then the wheels began to fall off again. That Ohio game to this day was the biggest beatdown (weather wise) I have ever experienced, much worse than the 2021 UTSA game even though that one wasn’t pleasant.

Winning is far more important than any marketing or community relations when it comes to driving attendance. If you had the best marketing team in the world how many folks could you get to consistently eat stale bread?

I don’t understand how they hold the coaches responsible for something that happened without their knowledge and outside of their time with the players.

So he was trying to take credit for the Harrell/Filani years.

I completely agree with you. Our hall of fame has been watered down way too much.

Do you mean Incarnate Word? Because he wasn’t at WSU for 3 consecutive seasons.

It will take some doing for me to feel optimistic again. I’ve been like this ever since last year’s FIU loss.

I just want to be clear that I didn’t downvote you for the post. I downvoted you for the title of the post and it felt good, so thank you for that.

Underappreciated post

Excellent news. Great player.

Ironman football with this bunch of daisies?

Maybe by your perspective but my point was that Rod Brown got fewer accolades with Morris’ staff against essentially the same teams on the schedule.

We played Memphis in 2022. My point stands, outside of Tulane our schedule was no more difficult in 2023 than it was in 2022.

Outside of Tulane, I really don’t see the increase in competition from who we played in 2022.

Brown was much more successful under the prior regime when it came to accolades.

If that were true, Todd Dodge and my NCAA 2009 would have both earned multiple national titles.

This isn’t Todd Dodge taking over for Darrell Dickey or Seth Littrell taking over for Dan McCarney. He took over from an offense first coach. I don’t see where the appreciable difference is between him and his predecessor other than Chandler Rogers ability to run and pass. That ability left for Cal to meet up with a very good O-line coach we used to have. Where is the hope for the future? This guy is no better than Littrell and the fact that he is less committed to this program than Littrell ever was shows he is worse other than having the “new” label associated with him.
