Bean and Aune did not look that good... 

Defense was solid throughout, and seem to be doing well in the new 3-3-5 

OL is still shaky at times but I feel like they are better than last year 

Also, gate was open

This might be the year where we run the ball a lot and whoever is the better game manager wins the job. But what do I know.

Oh yeah we ran a lot today. Had probably a total of 100 plus plays on offense, and quite a few were runs. Adaway was really strong

Brown has been mentioned as a likely starter for a while, but usually at guard. He was an underrecruited offensive lineman from Conroe and seems to have developed well. Cassidy was also pretty underrecruited out of Angleton and was a tough eval out of high school because his team ran a veer/wishbone type offense, so was tough to project him as a pass blocker.

Normally, the defense is way ahead of the offense in spring training, but the offense catches up somewhere during fall camp.

Also, normally, QBs and WRs spend hours upon hours together over the summer in voluntary workouts getting their routes and timing together.

The fact that the offense (particularly the QBs and WRs) haven't been able to spend the normal time together has to hurt that progress.  The fact that no one knows who the starting QB will be can also hurt that progress.

Martin hooked up with redshirt junior receiver Troy Edwards, Jr. along the far sideline, and Edwards did the rest, getting himself to the end zone for a 60-yard scoring strike early on.

Thanks, Billy. I need to go back at look at our older classes in 247 and review these guys.

Dad was also a La Tech grad. Wonder how he got away from them?

      Myrtle Beach Bowl

      I saw USF up in the 3rd quarter, but didn't get to see the OT. Any news during the game about if Hawaii will get a new stadium too? I was sad to hear the Aloha Bowl was in such bad shape a couple years ago and it had to be abandoned.

      Myrtle Beach Bowl

      I’m there with you as one of the few that watched it. I actually didn’t start watching until about 6 minutes left in the 4th quarter, but still got my money’s worth.

      Myrtle Beach Bowl

      I guess few saw the five overtime slugfest in Honolulu. Oh well I did and it was a blast of a game. Spartans roaring back for Coach Niumatalolo who lost his father last week. A native Hawaiian who played for UH, took his team to the Arizona Memorial for remembrance. Battling it out against a team traveling over 4,600 miles, further than any team this season including that game in Ireland 🇮🇪. That bounce in field goal to send the game into OT as the 4th quarter expired was awesome. A team building, bringing a new stadium to our league, a team seeking consecutive bowl wins after some dire years. Yeah I was one of the few that watched it. Love the storylines and shots of my old island home. It was historic. The most OT’s in bowl history Oh yeah and our conference is 3-1 in the bowl challenge. American rising. GMG

      Dave Fleming New Volleyball Coach

      This is a very surprising pick. Frankly,I don't get it; a very veteran coach; who has coached at the same D2 school forever almost. Why would this coach even be considered a good fit at NT? A .68% winning D2 coach who has apparently never coached at a higher level. Is NT cost cutting? I hope he is wildly successful, it would be hard to not be an improvement over the previous coach. However, this IMO is a very questionable choice.
