I think the problem is that we all DID expect that with the backup quarterback.

We lose this game with DT. it wouldn't have been so lopsided, but we still lose. That was a good team at home on homecoming.

yeah we should have expected to get our asses handed to us by a team we lost to by 5 last year with our 4th string QB, yup we should have expected to be down 31-0 at the half to a team that barely snuck by ULM and WKY.

Last years Arkansas state team is different than this years. Stop trying to compare the two. There's a reason they are #1 in the belt. I wanted us to win just as much as the next guy, but it gets old hearing the same old crap after every loss.

Your right they have a new coach, enough said.

So you're trying to say that we should win because we have a new coach too, right?

Also, keep pretending that WKU is the same team as last year and you'll be in for an even bigger disappointment.

Not just A new coach...but an entirely revamped coaching staff with a new DC and dedicated Special Teams coach along with a COMPLETELY different attitude on and off the field. There is something very special happening at ASU. We struggled with sub-par coaching for almost a decade. Things have changed and our time has come.

Well that finally convinced me. That does it. Sorry guys, I'm enrolling in graduate school at stAte - I think they have one - so I can root for them instead. Red really is the color of war and this whole green movement is starting to lose some steam.

I wouldn't say entirely revamped staff. The offensive staff from last year is mostly in place. We did clean house on defense.

The attitude is worlds better.

I think the point of this board is not that we lost, but how we lost. We weren't even competitive in the first half and look like a completely different team than the one that beat ULM. ASU has a heck of a team with a lot of returning starters. We lost some players at key spots, but we played much worse than we are capable.

That's great insight. While we're on the subject, what's going on with Auburn. I mean, last year they beat LSU and this year they lost by 35 points? How does that happen. Discuss....

Thank you.... People need to stop comparing seasons, the talent we have this year is 5x worst than last year.

But if you look at USC, they started a lot of younger guys (soph and freshman) to gain experence and look where that is leading them.. It takes time

7 years of average recruiting classes, ie, not recruiting enough linemen but rather too many DB's and WR's (especially during the TDodge era) will create an immediate problem for a new coach every time.

WE ALL WANT TO WIN AND TO WIN.................NOW.......................but we are "still" going to have to be patient. We have some good talent, folks, but just not enough to win even in the Sun Belt. Our depth is now being tested with some injuries.

A nice transfusion of JUCO's this winter recruiting season would be nice, but we haven't been too lucky doing that of late.

GMG!

      2025 Roster Construction

      a couple names...pure speculation, but I kinda feel like some of these are the sorts of dudes who would fit the profile Malik Presley - 6'6" 200, Soph. Texas - started at Vandy, transferred to UT but sat all last season...very highly recruited out of HS, but so far SEC basketball has looked above him and may feel his career is stalling Jordan Ivey-Curry - 6'3" 175, Sr. UCF - no idea how he has eligibility...2 years at UTSA, 1 at Pacific, 1 back at UTSA and last season with UCF...if he does still have a college year, he's likely transferring for a bag, but if he's instead looking for a place to go get 15 shots a night, I'd like to offer him the forum. he's not as efficient a player that I usually like, but dude is a bucket Kevin Overton - 6'5" 200, Jr. Texas Tech - started 35 games at Drake as a freshman, important role player on an Elite 8 team last season (one we know plays tough defense)...could be looking to find a fit where he's back in an expanded/lead role Terrance Arceneaux - 6'6" 200, Jr. Houston - probably a pipe dream, but another key role player on a national runner-up. hasn't been a big scorer in 85 games at UH (career 5ppg) so might be looking for more shots Jacob Dar - 6'7" 170, Jr. Rice - opinions might be a bit skewed up here as he had a really good game against UNT...he was a streaky role guy on a bad Rice team...7.5ppg, 4rpg...but he seems to have a high motor and his shooting numbers (40%-37%-75%) are actually pretty solid for what we'd be asking from him

      Where do we go from here?

      It's funny. I get the same adrenaline rush beating a top ranked softball team (and the same funk after a loss) as any G5 or higher football game. We have a poorly funded sports program. I think most of that is because we simply don't have many fans. We get a pretty good bang for our buck for the numbers of people that attend our games, of any sport. The question is: if we are losing fans in droves, how long will we have a program? I'm sticking around as long as they turn the lights on. And when they go off, that will be a tough loss and a funk that won't go away quickly. By the way MGFinNO, your post that started this thread gave me about as much pleasure as one of those player goodbyes you called out. Pursue your happiness elsewhere if you must, but keep an open mind about a return. I'm not sure how the school reacts to this kind of talk, but this fan realizes we don't have that many to lose. GMG
