Green Otaku

Walker gets in front of his man to stop a pass, foul. Wright gets bumped and pulls back, foul. On a breakaway the defender runs into our shooter, foul. Wtf?

Am I crazy or do we just get the worst foul calls out of any team I've seen?

Definitely. We need a strong top of the conference to keep showcasing the AAC nationally.

The difference is we don't have an elite basketball conference to boost rankings/net like those teams do. Outside of Memphis who else is really notable in our conference?

The TBD game on the 21st is against Texas Wesleyan. Another NAIA team if I'm not mistaken. Take a look at this year's home schedule: Evansville Wayland Baptist Texas Wesleyan Oregon State Mississippi Valley State App State Houston Baptist We got lucky with App State, they had their game fall through due to hurricane damage and we were able to pick them up.

I'd still say it's the typical slow deflation of excitement like usual until it's so bad they have to make a change.

If they do well yes, at least for now. But if EM doesn't work out and he has to make a 2nd FB hire his job is going to hinge on it.

They better be ok with empty stadiums and low donor numbers because I don't see people tuning in if next year is poor/mediocre. At that point Mosley's seat starts to get pretty toasty too.

He's got next year to find a new DC and whatever other changes he thinks he needs to make, but a mediocre year next year should seal his fate.

Offense and dumb coaching choices by EM cost us this game. The defense did enough to keep it close.

I don't know about you, but I'd say that's an issue.

Teams get done around the same time because schedules fill up and there aren't games left, you can't make more games once a team has all of their dates finalized. Your missing the part where we ask, what were we doing all of these months while everyone else was negotiating games with each other? Why are we left hat in hand asking Wayland Baptist to come play us? It's not about thinking we should be done because everyone else is done, but about why we haven't done a good job negotiating games over several months while everyone else has. How do you not see this as an issue?

This isn't about being embarrassed that our schedule isn't done, I don't know how that point came along, but it wasn't from me. It's about a poorly run part of the program, and it should not be acceptable for things to be run this way.

This shouldn't be an excuse or make it acceptable.

This isn't about missing any deadline, this is about underlying issues in the staff and/or the department. We are 5 days out from the season starting and are still missing 2 games from the schedule, 349 other teams have managed to complete their schedules while we still have not. How is that acceptable? Well run programs do not have this happen. By competitive I mean good solid programs, I've already named the types of programs we should be bringing in on the 3rd post of this page. Not only are we not bringing those programs in, we are waiting to the last days to bring in teams like Wayland Baptist. Something is not as it should be here, and whatever it is needs to be addressed.

Agree, and for it to happen again this year means it's not an anomaly. There are 350 teams in Div.1, and 349 are better at getting their schedules set. How can we be a serious athletic department when this kind of mismanagement is allowed to continue? If this is our approach can you imagine what kind of other things are allowed to slide?

I'm sorry but this is fire-able to whomever is responsible. What kind of department do you run if you can't manage game scheduling to at least an acceptable time frame, let alone competitive level?

Agree. That apathy is across all generations of grads too, or else we wouldn't be pulling such low ratings.

Playing UNT Dallas would be so weird. I'm wondering what the chances are that this is it and we are going to be a few games short of a full schedule?

12/11 doesn't make sense, isn't that during finals? 11/11 seems odd too, 2 days before traveling to Minnesota? If that turns out to be true there will be nearly week games in all but 1 week of the 1st three weeks. Tue. Nov 5th Mon. Nov 11th (assuming that's scheduled), Wed. Nov. 13th Mon. Nov.18th Mon. Nov.25th. Not a single home weekend game in November?

I don't see how last minute deals can bring in anyone of note. App seemed to fall in our lap due to them having to cancel a game. We are missing what, 4 games?

Do you guys remember people saying we drew poorly in CUSA because we were playing WKU, MTSU, or Marshall? If we were playing Memphis, Tulane, or USF they said we would get a boost in attendance. Funny how you don't see that anymore.
