Schedule up--not lateral (CUSA is as lateral as we need to schedule) and--never schedule down. I defer to what Mr. Einstein said in the signature below.

GMG!

I think that the scheduling of those MWC for OOC will be easier if a true alliance is being worked on. I wouldn't be surprised at all to see us play a Nevada or a Colorado State. The only thing that worries me is if those teams already have schedules that can't really be rearranged. I guess we'll see how it goes. Just don't play away games at big AQ teams in the same year as other away $$$ games. I don't want to see us play at Texas and at Ole Miss because Ole Miss pays a bunch of cash. If Ole Miss wants to schedule a home-and-home, then that is fine. The big thing is just getting games at home, not anymore $$$ games with no return.

I vote no to scheduling SBC schools for 2013 on. We need a clean break. I think we should be able to fill our OOC schedule just fine with MWC schools.

We haven’t even got our foot out the door and you don’t want to play Sun Belt teams? Texas State could be a very good home-and-home series that is close enough to have a large following.

We have worked hard and invented in our athletics and the University as a whole to be in a position to “move on”, but sorry if I don’t see where we are in a place to where we are “above” Sun Belt schools.

Won't we be able to schedule some MWC teams?? Air Force, Nevada, or CSU sounds pretty damn good to me. I can't believe no on has mentioned the MWC teams yet!

Depending on what happens with the whe merged thing, if CUSA and MWC remain separate and have a "championship" game between the 2 conference winners, I would bet there would be an OOC agreement between the conferences, also.

That would only make sense.

      I felt a twinge of optimism yesterday

      The sign of a good coach is can that coach evaluate his team from one season to the next and make correct adjustments in personnel and/or schemes and show improvement in lacking areas. Morris mentioned that after player turnover from last year that majority of players now are his recruits and the buy-in is better. It will be interesting to compare last years team to this years and find out.

      Coach Morris held a summer pool party for his players at his house

      Are you trying to justify it to me or to yourself?

      Should We Recruit in Japan?

      In all seriousness, as American Football grows its footprint around the world there really shouldn't be any limits to where we'll go get players. I don't keep up with basketball much but I think 2 of the first top 10 players came directly out of France in the NBA draft this year? SEC and many others have been grabbing Aussie rules guys for years to be punters and even more these days. There are even some guys who have made it to the NFL who played high school football in Mexico as well.

      I agree with you. I don’t know exactly why, but I have to admit: I think our defense is going to be very much improved, maybe even good this year. There were a lot of young players who got significant reps as freshmen and showed real flashes last year. I think that those players mixed with some very promising transfers that have a good handle on this defense will surprise a lot of people. If the defense can even be in the top 100 this year, and the offense can put the pieces together anywhere close to how we did last year (I trust that this is just going to happen under Morris and Cobbs), I think we will be ahead of where Seth had us, even before this whole NIL/transfer combo really redefined the landscape. That said, I think the defense has potential to be much better than top 100. I get it- the evidence might all point to the contrary, but I just have a feeling I can’t shake.
