On a scale of 1 to 10...How would you rate this season so far?
8…. Nice to see we can finally recruit a big man under the basket that is productive. It’s un fortunate that the only way we get to the dance is win the conference. We have a great coach especially when you look at who he had to follow. GMG- 1

Something I'm chewing on: if we are perpetually 20-25 wins, without championships, only one-and-dones (NCAA/NIT) are we okay with that and keeping Hodge indefinitely, or do we call it after 1 or 2 more of these (hypothetically) and start looking for someone else? Probably too soon to dig too much into that, but I worry it will be the case if Hodge doesn't figure out some more offense. Either with the team/scheme, or just find an individual that gets us over the hump. Final 0.02: I want us pushing hard, trying to figure out how to get to the S16.- 1

If we only had lost to Memphis, UAB, and Utah State our team would be sitting in chairs this afternoon surrounded by family and donors as our school name gets called for an at large invitation. Each and every game is just much more meaningful for mid majors. High Point University, Mcneese State, nutsack, and temple ruined our at large dreams. IF you got HPU and Mcneese at home and win those games then we might have been able to afford the nutsack L. In this scenario, we wouldn't lose at temple to close out reg season. Just more to the point of playing AT Mcneese and AT HPU was and is very dumb. That's bad scheduling, and that bad scheduling could be seen as season ruiners for the NCAAT or bust people that are out there. -

What could have been
I had never heard Nick Saban mentioned. Not sure I believe it. Jerry Moore was a Nebraska assistant hired to replace Hayden Fry. But he tried to repalce Fry's wide open offense with a Nebraska running game and it mostly failed. He went 11-11 and luckily Tech hired him away. He learned later how to really coach at App St. Moore was replaced by Bob Tyler, a former Miss St head coach, with baggage. He only lasted one season at 2-9 in 1981. Corky Nelson was next. He had been a former NT asst in 1970. NT also made the poor decision then to drop to 1-AA. Nelson was a good coach and got more big wins and fans pumped for NT as a 1-AA program since Fry. Dennis Parker was a Texas high school name coach, won State at Marshall (an early Todd Dodge) as we tried to get media attention and recruiting inroads with him. Nice guy, had a bit role in the movie Necessary Roughness. But an 11-21 record couldn't get it done at the 1-AA level. We finally made the decision to return to 1-A football and hired Matt Simon. 1995 we were Independent during the transition and had the most brutal schedule in our football history, before or since. -
