Are there any killers on defense?

Best comment/question in the whole article.

I just have to laugh at the biggest defensive loss on so many levels.

[Eagle1855]

I wouldnt read too much into these polls, last year they had

101. UCF

102. SMU

109. La Tech

all of whom finished substantially better than the bottom 119

good quote:

Last season might have been ugly, but the coaching staff, and the winning tradition, is in place to expect a quick bounceback year

Otherwise good observations. Need some DT's! And if our worst loss on Defense is Jamel Branch, Id say we have a good amount of guys returning. We need that killer D again. Anybody miss Deloach?

[H-towngreen]

One good sign in the article. Our biggest Defensive loss was Ja'mel Branch. If that is the biggest loss then I'll take it.

I'm ready for '06.

By the way when does spring ball start?

[MeanGreen61]

The whole conference is in the bottom 19

Why even post this crap?

#111? Its hard to believe one season set us back so much in the eyes of the media.

BEAT SMU!!!!

I'd rather know the good AND bad of what media say about us - glad to see that goodwill from last offseason is still there with national media.

We should have banned posting write ups of last years games too if the point is to stay happy.

Is being in the Bottom 19 with the rest of the SBC job security for DD??

Winning 2 OOC games may get us high as 80 (maybe).

There's GOOD, there's BAD, there's UGLY. For sure, it ain't always good.

woohoo! Jamario pic for being in the bottom 19...and I thought the article in USA Today last year was good

[greenjoe]

J'mel Branch is gone. That would be our greatest defensive pluses I should volunteer to help him pack to make sure he doesn't get a job as a grad assistant.

If NT had the worst history dept or the worst chemistry dept in the nation, some dean or dept. head would be gone.

[UNTFan23]

That's the best back-handed comment I've seen in a while.

[Eagle1855]

and its a great point

If CFN was the real national media we might have something to worry about. Don't get me wrong I think its a cool site, but they deliberately look at things in a slightly different way to they have a unique angle on reporting on the top end of college football.

CFN also says this is not how they expect teams to finish next season either. Their criteria first looks at shot at the national title, then BCS games, and breaks down from there. Of course the SBC is going to be at the bottom when it scores zeros in two of the five ranking categories.

There aren't alot of positives to take away from last season, but at least CFN is recognizing Jamario as the best player amongst the bottom teir of college football.

Yippee! I have never been more proud! NT for the National Championship, Woodrow Wilson for president!

Some how I don't beleive that being recognized as the best of the worst is on J-Mo's wish list
