I thought the team played fine, but there were a ton of game day issues last night. PA system didn’t work on starting lineup introductions. Announcer was subpar - did not do first down call

I dont understand why the PA guy had such a hard time with "And that's good for another MEAN GREEEEEEN First Down"!  We got the first first down of the game and I had my hand up waiting for him t

Please someone get in the PA guy's ear.  He is trying too hard.  The Davis and Davis thing (I also think he had a similar comment about the Murphy twins) and he was also saying stuff about Torrey being in a single back set prior to the play  and other things I can't think of that had to do with our formations.  We don't need that from a PA guy. Down and distance, first down call, 3rd down reminder (some people need it) and the players involved in the play. He can add a little flavor to it, but stick to the basics. Hopefully he gets better, but surely they interviewed him and he did a mock calling of the game prior to Saturday, right? And if so, they thought that was better? Disappointing.  

The small score board was also disappointing since I'm a numbers guy when it comes to sports and they help me decide how the game is going in real time. #asdf and test? Bush league

Then he should already have this down.

It’s great he’s hearing the feedback and fans are submitting it. I think my biggest problem is that when there’s an issue on game day at Apogee, I’ve resigned to expecting it to just be something that will be an issue all game. The inability to troubleshoot and correct is more troubling than the issues themselves. But I digress on this. I’ll be at all the games regardless.

All of you who are now suddenly PA experts (like every other theme on this football forum) need to grow some balls & just go tell PA guy Rob Coffey all this to his face— O Ye Brave Keyboard Warriors.

Look, you're obviously a homer who can't face the facts that Jayaire Shorter and KD Davis are both garbage players.  We've already seen what they can do.   It's time for them to take a seat for the super transfer kids who were previously backing up Alabama's Biletnikoff frontrunner & Clemson's Nagurski frontrunner!1!!   They're only here because they weren't going to get any playing time behind those guys, but both were top 15 high school recruits at their positions 3 years ago!!!1!1!   We're lucky to have #ASDF & Test? here in Denton now.

Says the man from behind the keyboard.  I'd be happy to tell him my opinions, but I don't have access to him.  My point was, which you obviously missed, is that he HAS been doing this for a while, so he should know what works and what doesn't.  And he is good at calling basketball games, but what works for one sport doesn't work for another.

      How FAU Could Afford To Fire Tom Herman (a sensible contract clause)

      The FAU head coach signed a five-year contract with a base salary of $750,000, including annual incremental increases. For the 2024 college football campaign, Herman’s salary will be $1 million. He’ll earn $1.25 million in 2025, $1.35 million in 2026, and in the final year of the contract, he’ll earn $1.5 million. Herman hadn’t been a head coach since the 2020 season when Texas fired him. He spent time as an analyst for the Chicago Bears in 2021, but made his return to college football when the Owls hired him after the 2022 season. With FAU headed to the American Athletic Conference, the Owls needed a coach who had experience and could recruit the area well. Herman recruited well at his previous stops, and the administration believed he could do it again in Florida. If FAU terminates his contract, he will be paid a lump sum of 20 weeks of his annual salary or the remainder of the contract, depending on which number is lower.

      Earth to GMG

      The coaches caused the NIL issue in the first place with their outsized salaries and ridiculous employment contracts. And you better believe these AD's and coaches all are in on it and look after each other's financial interest. The players saw this and said "screw it" I'm getting paid too. How many of you on GMG have an employment contract or make what these clowns do a year? If you add up all the players and coaches and staff, what is that? Like 150 people? Even Ohio State's annual budget is only $215 million. In the business world, managing $200/million/year and 150 people isn't that big a deal and you certainly won't be compensated like a college football coach. This system is rigged! I say that coaches should be at will employees like the rest of us, now that they screwed up College Football.

      No. I don’t want to reward my 6-7 team for beating another 6-7 team. #ReallyNewDenton

      Two years in....

      At the end of last year I graded Morris with a D (up from mid-season D- because he won the last two games). Many thought that grade was too low, but so far, I think either D or D- is still appropriate. Here are the wins under coach Morris along with the records of the teams we beat. 2023 LaTech (3-9) ACU (5-6) Temple (3-9) Tulsa (4-8) UAB (4-8) 2024 South Alabama (6-5) SFA (7-5) Wyoming (2-9) Tulsa (3-8) FAU (2-9) So after two seasons, the signature win in coach Morris' tenure is arguably Southland Conference and FCS-level Stephen F. Austin. Let that sink in. If South Alabama beats Texas State on Saturday, then we can probably elevate them to the signature win. Yay us. If it wasn't for Chad Morris falling in our laps, I'm not sure we get any of the five wins we currently have. This was/is the guy to take us to the next level? What a complete debacle.
