It has been a long time since I have been this excited about this program. What a way to start a press conference with announcing the hire of Coach Canales. I have been trying for over a month t

I can admit that I wasn't jazzed by the name McCarney last week, but I never waivered in my support of the team.

That said, after hearing the press conference and learning about Canales, I think we have acquired an awesome coaching staff.

I look very forward to learning who else is on it.

Glad Coach Canales is staying! That said, I hope Mccarney brings in a DC and lends his expertise like Patterson does at TCU and as I am sure Stoops does at OU, when needed. Then spends the other 99.9 percent of his time as the CEO I just do not think a system where a head coach who is wearing two hats (head coach and oc or dc) works as things like special teams, time management and all seem to suffer. He can only do so much, and I would rather him oversee the big picture.

I want to congratulate you guys on what I think was an extremely successful hiring process!

I also want to congratulate you on having an athletic director not afraid to take heat for spending money to hire Chuck Neinas and not just doing things the easy way and promoting Mike Canales. And also for hiring a coach with the guts to hire a guy as one of his coordinators whom he knew many wanted to get the top job. Many head coaches are so paranoid they would be threatened by somebody like Canales. So props to McCarney on that.

With apologies to FirefighterRick ( ;) ) I'll just mention SDSU this last time. We won exactly two games two years ago. Now we're getting votes in the AP poll and Rivals has us as the 27th best team in the country. Brady Hoke gets all the credit but at least as important has been his staff as a whole, including DC Rocky Long, who Brady didn't worry some might think should be the top guy if the team struggled a bit. Seems that McCarney has the same philosophy.

I'll be following your program to watch the fruits of your efforts during this process. Again, MAJOR congratulations!

Hello PM pal and welcome back to the board.

Now we need Chuck "known by everyone in the NCAA universe" Neinas to help our UNT leaders pitch North Texas for the MWC so we can play those Aztecs every year! :P

Kraft should sponsor our stadium since it will be full of Mac and Chico, which will prove better than that old pantry staple, Mac and Cheese.

Primo is glad the "Mac and Chico" didn't get missed... pass the Kool-Aid

Hey Lifter....wonder how good/bad it would be to drive down for the game. If I can get tags for my RV, we could tailgate and have fun.....wasn't sure if you bring a lot of people with you....usually it's myself and then my cousin meets me in Dallas for the game. I live in Springdale, AR. Thanks! Allen

      Meanwhile we finished higher than Minnesota in NET last year. Actually they haven't finished higher than us since 2020. Was this post on Twitter?

      Minnesota (11/13/24)

      Mike Mitchell Jr. was out. He's a starter and Minnesota could've really used his shooting. Not as familiar with the other players but they're reserves. This game was a big data point for the Massie over Newell position!

      Minnesota (11/13/24)

      Awesome win! The only bad part was the commentary from the TV announcers. They confused Newell and Lorient for an extended period of time, stated that Atin Wright originally played at Washington State, and clearly barely knew anything about our program. The play by play announcer gave major 'and boom goes the dynamite' vibes. Some thoughts on the game: - The defense was stellar as we've all come to expect. Delo and Massie were great playing multiple matchups. - Minnesota came out and blitzed our PnRs. We really struggled with the pressure. Eventually we started slipping screens and setting brush screens to counteract it. - Trey Edmonds in the second half forced us to play big. He has a grown man body. Hodge settled on a Lorient/Sissoko combination to match Garcia/Edmonds. - An extended run with a Floyd/Walker/Massie/Lorient/Sissoko lineup including to close the game aside from situational subs. Before the season I would've been shocked that this lineup would close a win on the road against a Big Ten school because of the offense. The spacing was predictably an adventure. Massie wasn't efficient but he kind of made the lineup 'work'. He shows handling, passing, and court awareness in the half court. Feels like he could turn into a secondary ball handler in lineups. - Atin Wright had a meh game by his standards, but still really excited about him this season. He's a bit of a showman and I love it. After getting fouled in transition, he slapped the ball away from the defender and stared at him. On Lorient's massive jam at the end of the game, you can see him standing over Edmonds (who was on the ground). GMG

      Still just a bit, but a sad one because it seems like a ceiling and not a floor.

      I will say that if we take care of business Utah State would like to have a say in that conversation. Lol
