This is deeply saddening news. A starter on the oline? And this late in the cycle? Wow what is going on up there?

I have a problem with the LSU flag. Sorry if you have a problem with that.

Welcome Princess!

How do you assess the impact of 12 playoff spots? Won’t that benefit the have nots.

Ugh LSU is a real bad look

Agree 100%. Our future lies with our young alums and getting them more engaged.

@Harry we need an AAC forum please

If true why did we choose the same exact color as another program?

Yes and ever since we were admitted, SMU fans on the site are reminding us they have one foot out the door already. Yes I will grant you ECU on the road is one tough game, but not having to play Tulane, nUTSAck and UAB is big deal.

Since taking over as interim head coach on February 10, Herl has made the best of an extremely awkward situation and has impressed the Ram faithful with his swift action. Less than two weeks after getting the nod, Herl opened practices to the media and openly recruited the community to attend games to support the squad. In his first game as head coach, CSU scored a season-high 90 points in a win over San Jose State. Three games after that, Herl helped CSU recover from a brutal home loss to Boise State with what was arguably the team’s best performance of the season in a loss at Nevada on Feb. 25. At 30 years old, Herl is far from the traditional hire, but he is considered one of the prominent young coaches on the rise. In April 2017, Herl was named to Under Armour’s 30-under-30 honorees, recognizing a group of up-and-coming young coaches in men’s college basketball. More importantly, Herl has shown that he gets what it takes to be a successful young coach in this game. As a former college basketball player, Herl knows where these guys are coming from and can relate to them in ways that most will not be able to comprehend. He has the recruiting connections to help build up the program right and the acumen to handle the stressful time periods. Sure, he is incredibly young and would likely be considered a gamble. But the program could get him for a fraction of what they paid Larry Eustachy, and he could immediately bring some stability to a program that desperately needs it.

We still need a big man unfortunately.

Did Jax play? I thought he was hurt.

Always saddened when one of our investments does not pan out for the University. I wish the both of them the best in their future endeavors. It is unfortunate that they were put in a position where they would not be successful. In my estimation, neither had any business being recruited by UNT. I hope, that in the future we will not be saddled with such terrible personnel decisions and frankly laziness. In retrospect, at the QB position it almost appears that Littrell was just rolling the dice and hoping he would win the lottery again like he did with Mason Fine. So many QB mistakes like Gunnell, Amani Gilmore, Jason Bean, Kason Martin, Cade Pearson and more. The list goes on forever. It is some of the worst QB recruiting percentages in the nation. I hope that Jared will keep a closer watch of the program health than was done prior to him. Just going to bowls in a crappy conference is not an acceptable barometer of the health of this program which has so much potential under the right leadership.

I plan on being there. Hope they throw out some candy.

I get what you are saying hut hebis a little small and much too valuable on special teams to risk injury.

@ADLER

He’s a stud!!

Thousands of workers at universities have gone on strike in 2023 amid new union contract negotiations in demand of pay increases that align with the effect high inflation rates have had on the cost of living. The strikes are a continuation of wave of industrial action in higher education in the US last year. In late 2022, 48,000 graduate workers and post-doctoral researchers went on strike throughout the University of California system, the largest strikein US higher education history. There were 15 academic strikes in the US in 2022, the highest number of strikes in academia in at least 20 years. On 11 April, about 280 faculty and staff at Governors State University in Illinois went on strike, joining around 100 faculty at Chicago State University and 300 faculty at Eastern Illinois University who began striking earlier this month in demand for fair pay increases. The University of Michigan recently lost an attempt to obtain a court injunction against 2,300 graduate workers who began striking on 29 March, after a judge denied the request to issue an injunction to halt the strike. The unions criticized Rutgers’ role in soaring rent costs in the area given the university is the largest landlord in the New Brunswick, New Jersey, area. The university system has also been criticized for poor investments of endowment funds and overspending on sports programs. read more: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/apr/21/us-universities-wave-strikes
