I said last spring that I thought JQ would get his chance for sure. You cannot ignore what he's done while operating within such a run first offense as ours. I remember, too often I suppose, that when thinking back how much dead set we are to run the ball in this system was that of the Nichols State game in '02 in which we had the perfect opportunity to allow Smith to get his feet wet against a much inferior team and really light someone up, yet we only threw the ball 7 times. Our defense dominated them to the point it was rediculous. I only remembered NSU crossing the 50 one time all night. The sad part was, a historically weak 1-AA program like NSU knew we were going to run all night and simply gave up on the idea of pass protection at times. At one point GMoney pointed out to me during a play that NSU was in a 10 man front with one guy back as free safety and we refused to take advantage of it. It looked as if they were in punt-return formation.

Per MGS:

.....Smith, in his first career start,  played an error-free game with no interceptions.  North Texas relied on its rushing attack most of the game and Smith passed just seven times, completing three of those attempts for 43 yards.

So considering that JQ could end up being our all time reciever say's a lot about his accomplishments and abilities.

the one from the fight in practice today that required surgery

Last I heard, he had hurt his hand, and that he would go see a doctor. I was not aware of any surgery. Do you know something we don't?

Did you hear that a "fight" was involved somehow?

I have no idea how I missed the word "fight" in there. I didn't know that, either.

Johnny had surgery this morning. 2 screws in his 3rd metacarpus of his left hand. Currently in a cast so the hand can not be moved. He will play somehow against UT.

Well hopefully the coaching staff has learne something about serious injuries on their star players: it was foolish to see if Cobbs could play one handed (and then with one knee), it was foolish to not shut Jamario down last year to rest his hammy, and it will be foolish to to try and play a WR who has a cast on one hand.

If his hand has a cast, red shirt him; and bring him back for 2007. But don't waste his senior year by letting him try to play wide receiver with a cast. That would be bad for the team, and bad for any draft potential.

If he doesn't play, he could receive a medical redshirt.

Regardless, a good WR is likely to be drafted by the NFL. Not too many kickers get picked in the draft.

Hope The Mighty Quinn can have a great year (over come his injury) and become an NFL WR.

      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.
