It counts in the record books for us, but not for Angelo State.  We do one of these every year it seems.  It's technically not an exhibition for us, but is for them.

San Angelo State at a glance:

* Currently 1-1 having beat #15 Fort Lewis by eight, but then turned around and lost the next night to New Mexico Highlands by three.

* Averaging 71.0 points per game while giving up 68.5

* Shoot 45% from the floor, 39.6% from three and 75.8% from the line.

* Average 34.0 rebounds per game but allowed 36.5

* May be turnover prone as they average 18.5 per game..

* Average 7 steals and 9 blocks as a team.

* Individually stats:

* Leading scorer is Keyshawn Embery-Simpson, 6'3" guard, at 22.5 ppg, who is a grad transfer from Tulsa.

* Two others average double figures.  6'7" F Shemar Smith at 12.5 ppg and 6'2" Sr. G Kevon Godwin at 11.5.

* Embery-Simpson is hitting 50% of his three attempts and 51.5% from the floor.

* Sr. 6'9" F Trey Farrer is their leading rebounder at 7.5 per game.

* Godwin was last year's leading scorer at 16.9 per game.

* Run an eight man rotation with these eight playing 17 minutes or more per game.

* Only two returning starters, Godwin and Willie Guy, in this rotation

We should roll.

Have we confirmed how much the bribe payment will be for ASU to throw the game? Can it paid through NIL donations?

Not sure what the point is of having an exhibition scheduled 6 games into the regular season?  Maybe they were all that we could find?  Do we gain anything from this except to maybe get the backups some court time (which I'm all for)?  The Towson game was basically an exhibition.

Vegas didn't think the Towson game was an exhibition. We were only 4 point favs.

It is an exhibition for Angelo St and a regulation game for NT.

This has been going on for years, although it been a long time since NT participated in this type game.

It was created to help D1 schools fill their early schedules with easy games.  Because it seems few want to play difficult away games without a big check.

The lower classification school gets a payday and it does not count on their record.   A highly motivated lower class team versus an overconfident buy a win team has resulting in embarrassing upsets.

      I hope we lose to Temple

      I agree I'd like to see where those schools get the dollars to buy out 3-year's worth of head coach salary. It's time for G5 programs to go to 2-3 year head coaching contracts max. If the guy is really good he will leave anyway for a P4 job. If he's really bad you want him gone, and if he has potential then add extensions as needed...but not Seth type extensions...so be careful!

      Cotton, Vice And Mason

      I would also like to see Vice and Mason get more minutes. They looked good in the limited action I saw them. Senior privilege minutes for Sissoko and Stone are at the expense of better players.

      The Band

      I know this isn't the most important topic, but I was curious as to what others thought. I live across the country so I can't attend games unfortunately, but from watching it on TV is it just me or has the band declined in quality in the last few years? When the camera shows them they look undisciplined/inattentive, some are just wandering around chatting. I see other bands together and ready to play as soon as a play is over. The size seems to have ballooned and now sprawls across 2 sections of the stands, and despite that they sound worse. The director also doesn't seem to know that the purpose of the band is to hype up the team/crowd, and put pressure on the opposing team on 3rd downs. Play something intimidating on 3rd down! When they do play it seems like they just have a bank of songs they go through in order without considering the situation on the field. The selection of music is bad, and it doesn't seem like they have any variety of songs to connect with the crowd, many bands will play classic and modern hits to get the crowd into things. Like I said I don't know if this is true or not since I can only judge on what I see on broadcasts, what's the in-game experience like?

      What is this program missing?

      I think if you did the G5 national championship thing....and the players only got the schollie and a stipend.......I think it would draw fans like crazy. I think there are loads of folks who want amateur athletics to stay amateur. With what we draw and get in donations.....there is no way we should be paying a football coach over $1m. No way. So yeah amateur athletics, tighten the budget. These coaching staffs are huge now. Do folks not know that we now have a bigger recruiting staff.....than Hayden Fry had for an entire staff. He had six assistants. And it was better, more imaginative football. But this will likely never happen. As all these schools think they're just a break away from the "big time."

      How 'Bout Some Blame For The BOR?

      This. Unless/until the BOR and Administration decide to "...make winning at revenue sports a priority", we will only have the occasional good season more or less by accident.
