Mean Green 93-98

There are a couple guys who posted in the Ticket Exchange that they were looking:

Bias aside, I'd have to do the same.

Ridiculous. I hope Diego ends up paying whatever legal fees the NCAA incurs (as well as his own) to deal with this garbage.

It's somewhat dated, but I just found this: https://fbschedules.com/are-bye-weeks-really-an-advantage-in-college-football/ I would think that under our particular circumstances, our bye week was well-timed and should help us. But it does appear that that's not usually the case.

Better defense, combined with emphasizing field position? Just a hunch.

The kid loves the Mean Green, and loves being with his dad cheering on the Mean Green at games, win or lose. I don't know why you would take that away from him.

I guess I should have included in my question that all non-student section general admission tickets also sold out. I'm not saying that's going to happen this Saturday, just curious.

Question: If reserved tickets sell out, is there a time when they can start selling tickets for the student section, assuming the student section is not full?

I remember when we had a "home" game against Army at Texas Stadium in the mid to late 90's. There was a huge contingent of cadets there.

You need to listen to that again. Notice that he specified in what ways he was doing a fantastic job--he is a hard worker, etc. But he clearly stated that the defensive performance was unsatisfactory.

I don't see Eric Morris punting 4 times in one game. More like, we go for it on 4th down 4 times on our own side of the field.

If Memphis's huge NIL stash couldn't satisfy him, I don't think we'll have anywhere near the kind of dough he's looking for.

Considering how many of them have houses or condos in other countries, that might be difficult to measure. I imagine very few, if any, of them have stayed out of America altogether while the offending President was in office.

I guess you're a Caponi fan? He pretty much said that, barring some unforeseen turnaround, Caponi's gone after the season's over.

I don't think that's Mercado. That was south of the square.

What's happened to APR? Is that still a thing? It used to be that if more than a few players left a football program (much more so a basketball program) without graduating in the same year, it would kill a team's APR.

The article mentions that the reason he is leaving is because he's not receiving the NIL dollars he thought he was promised. Not the first time that's happened.

Just win.

Saw him break off some nice runs tonight. Just now watched Jay Maclin make a great TD catch, immediately followed by a great 2-point conversion catch, for Kentucky. Sigh.

Having this happen to Memphis's star WR probably didn't help . . .

I think you meant "overstated."

I'm not sure how you responded to my point. Yes, we will be able to land transfers who, for whatever reason, weren't working out at P4 schools. Like Jace Ruder, Marcus Trice, Chandler Morris, and a bunch of others we've had over the years. I was talking about competing directly against P4s for recruits for whom P4s could previously only offer walk-on spots. The P4s previously only had 85 scholarship players. Now they get 105. Plus they get to pay all their players big bucks on top of having all their tuition, fees, room, and board taken care of. It's going to be much more difficult landing those extra 20 than it was when P4s could only enroll them as walk-ons. In other words (generally speaking): P4 scholarship offer > G5 scholarship offer > P4 walk-on offer

If I could, I would certainly have to give this thread a "vomiting" vote: https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/flying-under-the-radar-smus-unparalleled-success-cant-be-ignored-as-mustangs-aim-to-reach-new-heights/

The "Anarchy" symbol on the helmet sums up well everything going on there.
