Really thought they did a good job. I really like the studio crew.

 

GO MEAN GREEN

I thought the announcers were mediocre at best.  The 15 minute interview with CUSA commish was a beating.  She is such a dull personality.

Yeah, agree. Better than the ASN, and way better than any CUSA.tv or that ridoulous watch ESPN crew from last week. Except that interview with the comish, that was bad.

I guess I was most impressed by the studio crew. They have taken the time to make sure they know what is going on.

Ah ... I watched the game online from a semi legal source so I didn't get to see any of the studio show.

I love that they have a real pregame, halftime, and post game show about our game, with real respected football personalities (Donovan McNabb). Top notch studio production.

 

C-USA should scrap the deals they cobbled together ESPN and ASN, and work to develop our own network hosted by beIN Sports.

OMG yes. She is horrible. Terrible representation of CUSA. She needs to go, seriously.

Overall, a decent production.

BeIN Sports is pretty big world wide. Not surprised by the quality of productions. They're like ESPN in foreign countries minus all the shouting people (more so as a network dedicated to sports). Pleasantly surprised to see McNabb during the half time show.

you do realize she has other responsibilities beyond being thrust into a television broadcast, right?

considering they also said they stayed in Lewisville last night...doubt it. more seems like they just did some actual research. google "soccer broadcaster's notebook"....bein probably holds their talent to a far higher standard than espn's 8th string team

Sure I realize that. But you would think that the person appointed to oversee a D1 conference would be at least somewhat personable. How can someone like that negotiate on the behalf of a conference for the betterment of the conference. The vibe I got from her, which may be a stretch, is that she just stumbled into this job. It's safe to say I don't think the conference is in good hands with her at the helm.

why? 

if it was her vision that led to the bein contract...and I've no clue if it was...seems to me you keep a person with intelligent and creative ideas more than a shiny personality. 

how does she negotiate? maybe bein said 5 games and she said 10. then they countered with 7 and she said 10. they come back with 8, final offer, and she wrote 10 on a slip of paper while dialing espn.

her face time was tortuous, but to make assumptions of her job performance based on it is stupid

She does need to go, seriously.  But for reasons other than having the personality of a blank, wrinkly sheet of cardboard.

Watching them this year I get the feeling that we (CUSA) are their test stage to try and move on to bigger conferences. Hope I am wrong.

what was with them calling us the "Green Machine" I may have missed our new slogan and nickname

Maybe they thought Burt Reynolds was playing QB?

Wish we had a serious post game radio show.  By the time we got back to the car - 8:19 p.m. - KNTU was already playing jazz again.  

Is is this something can be changed by the new athletic department people?  Would love to have interviews with multiple players and coaches like many other schools' post game broadcasts do.  We get one player, the head coach, a small wrap up, then back to jazz.

      What's so frustrating is that we were there, on the cusp. We were THAT team. WE HAD THE MOMENTUM (starting in 2017) until Littrell's flirtations with KSSt. The wheels fell off after that.... starting with Fine's injury in the NM Bowl game that year, then Harrell getting hired away & replaced by Bodie Reeder. The next season, the lackadaisical SL showed up and he wasn't having fun anymore. No more high energy, "Get after their asses!!". Instead, it was low energy, "we gotta do better in all 3 phases".... Then, we fired Littrell, and rightly so, but brought in Great Value Seth Littrell to replace him, which was a bone-headed move.

      Kevin Henry-Jennings: South Oak Cliff QB

      He was only recruited as a reserve; mainly to get in on the SOC/Dallas pipeline. (15 minutes away). Their guy was 4-Star QB Preston Stone of Parish Episcopal. Stone was injured and hasn't performed up to expectations. Jennings exceeded expectations. Not great but effective.

      New Commit....Cahmai Crosby, combo guard......Kilgore JC

      Well, not a lot to go on other than the attached video on Crosby. Haven't found an entire game yet. This staff has done a great job with juco pickups over the years, so I can't question this one. Curious why the lack of quality offers though. The Thomas signing is ok considering he just started his senior season in high school. He looks a legit 6-7 with a very good body build. He could develop his game more but he is not the "great" recruit as advertised. I have subscribed to NFHS for a number of years now and recently saw his playoff game against Plano East last year. He's an above average HS center (presently) on a loaded Allen team. I'm sure we signed him to play the 4 as he does not have a perimeter game. Wish we had signed DJ Hall of Plano East who is better. Kid signed with Texas State as their highest recruit ever. Never saw any UNT offers.

      Defensive recruiting/coaches have taken a backseat to offensive recruiting/coaches. I truly hope Morris quickly figures out that defense is necessary for winning. We just can’t rely on out scoring teams. I also hope Morris starts protecting the defense with his offensive play calls. When the defense just got off the field after a long drive by the other team, don’t be so aggressive with long passes that have us turning the ball over in less than a minute. Try to burn some clock and sustain a drive allowing the defense to rest and get adjustments from coaches.
