We truly have some of the most pathetic fans in college sports.

I like you're school of thought- under Dan we will bounce back...

Idolize much?

This is a critical year for Mac. He is playing with his recruits, not those slow, undersized guys he inherited that won a bowl game last year.

You know, those kids that he talked bad about...

When I took the job a year ago, I knew this was the smallest Division One team I’d ever been around, and then I found out it was one of the slowest Division One teams I’d ever been around.

Which should come as no surprise. . . . Look at a quote from Coach Mac circa 1995:

"Look, there's no use sugarcoating things," says first-year Iowa State coach Dan McCarney. "I've been coaching 25 years, and this is the smallest defense I've ever been around. It's also the slowest defense I've ever been around."

No gossip. He said that when he got here, UNT was slow and small. That is talking bad about players, right?

It's said to make a point. Everyone talks about players athletic performance. It's only over the line when you make it personal. This kids have grown up having their athletic ability scrutinized by coaches, parents, and parents of the players that back them up. A little message board isn't going to hurt them.

Personal stuff is different and should be considered over the line.

They all know this and don't need you as their guardian.

Didn't think standing up for someone was a guardian. But I think it's nice to do during hard times...

      Army Week Unis

      I assumed the t-shirt was part of this week's uniform. Why else wear it in the reveal? 🙂

      Army Week Unis

      Not a fan of the black but then again we've seen for years, what fans care for doesn't really matter to be completely honest when it comes to uniforms and school colors. We'll ask the question again that seems to trigger some of the people here, please give me an example of one player who has said they chose to come to a school or not go to a school because of the uniform choices changing constantly. What I do absolutely hate and think makes us look bad is the T shirts hanging out underneath the jerseys.

      Army Week Unis

      Just here to piss off a handful of people and say the school recognizes black as an official color.... The uni is fun, the players like them.. lets win.

      Army Cadets?

      There are usually at least some cadets at away games -- usually cadet leadership and cadets from the general area of the game. The pep band also travels, but I don't know if they travel to all games. The Army team will go over to the visitor's seating area for the playing of Alma Mater after the game just as they do at home games.

      Minnesota

      "We knew this game was gonna be kinda one of the ones we didn't want to play..." "Obviously, Minnesota's probably gonna be much better than the last two teams we played." Minnesota defeated ORU 80-57 Their Field Goal Percentage was 57.7% Their 3 Point Percentage was 61.1% They had 9 total turnovers Defense will clearly be the key to the game.
