The Oline is struggling mightily today!

Anyone heard if English is playing today? Seth mentioned that he could be coming back this week or the next. GMG

Maybe Brett is wrong? Wren Baker spoke after the game what a great rapport he and Littrell have. He spoke about them wanting to build something special here at NT. Does that all go out the door with bigger dollars? We will see if Littrell wants to build a program or just move on. Time will tell I suspect. I will say one thing, I trust Baker to do everything possible to keep him here. If not, I trust he will make a solid hire like he did with the bball coach. When you have people in position of authority who are knowledgeable and can make wise hires, the train will keep rolling. I wouldn't have had that same trust under Villareal. GMG

Yeah, I must say I am hoping for a different bowl team to face in the bowl. I have nothing against army. I am just looking for a new match up to be excited about. GMG

Anyone with pics of the crowd?

Only reason I really care is because we lost 2 three stars, one almost three star, and then a solid player at a position we really need depth at Trust in this coaching staffs ability to find and develop talent. GMG

We have struggled against any kind of run that involves the QB. I am not sure I agree with the above quote. We have struggled tackling qbs in an attempt to sack them when they were scrambling when pressure was on. We have not faced many qb's that are run based straight out of their sets under center. We will see! You probably will not be able to stop Bradshaw, but we may be able to limit the damage by having one guy keying on him forcing him to pitch more times than not. This way we can make him a secondary option rather than the primary. I believe we will win and can limit his damage. I believe in the Green! Go get em boys! GMG

I am guessing he could probably very Easly! You set me up there. GMG

Easly isn't playing this year due to transfer rules. I guess we will see if he has anything next year. He had almost 800 yards for the lumberjacks last year, I believe.

I just meant they both would provide a little size to the RB position that we need. Simple as that. I wasn't stating they would be our one two punch at running back.

Nice indeed. Good stuff

Go get em. Appears to have the size they need. It would be a nice duo with that SFA running back Easly who has transferred in. GMG

I agree that name recognition seems to be the only way our student body shows up in decent numbers. We have to ask how do we get there? It would appear constant winning would do it, but I am not sure that would do it for our fan base. They want name recognition before they show up. Unfortunately, in our world you have to beat the likes of schools like us on a constant basis before any recognition happens. The powers that be look at that and what kind of attendance base you have. We don't have much of a track record for either. Lets start with constant winning and see where it goes from there.

Next weeks game versus LA Tech is pivotal for the final two home games home attendance figures. Unfortunately, our fan base is a week to week proposition on if they attend the games or not. If we come out with a W, it will increase interest in the program. We will still be in first place, and It will bring more fans to draw interest to the already large homecoming crowd. This could lead to a very large army crowd to finish out the home schedule if we condinue our winning ways. The game though is pivotal not only in terms of attendance but in our conference seeding. A loss will be detrimental toward seeding, attendance and the momentum we need to finish strong. Here's to the Green. Go get em boys and finish out strong. GMG

This team has flaws like all do. Enjoy the ride. It appears they find more ways to win than they do lose aka UTSA. Enjoy the process of growth, as we are in year two of the rebuild. Next year should be fun, I hope. In the mean time we are still winning more these days. Knee-jerk reactions are the order of the day in the times we live. Order a little patience at the bar and enjoy the little victories and improvement on the field I have seen. GMG

Good recruiters can recruit like the UTSA coach Wilson. If we can recruit, we will get our fair share. Sure your history has a play in it, but good recruiters recruit. GMG

I am afraid even winning might not do it. Sad but true

This is what I am talking about. GMG

Good news indeed!

Anger or not, I don't think it matters. Different coaches have success with different styles. The gist of the issue here is corrections that were not made on the field to stem the tide. That is what I have a problem with. GMG

Was Guyton shut down today, or did he not play? I just saw the stats and noticed he did not have any catches today. GMG

Seems like any time we get a bit of momentum as a program, our weaknesses are revealed the following week. Those wins we just had doesn't amount to a hill of beans. The students will just see the thrashing we took this week in the student daily. They will have no desire to attend the coming game. Our school is lukewarm at best in attending football games. There has to be sustained winning for anything to change. How long do we have to wait for such a change to consistent winning?

I cant stand the losing as much as anyone. The reality is that SMU is a year ahead with how long Morris has been with the Ponies. Until this point they have clearly out recruited us as well. The score was indicative of what should transpire in that situation. It doesnt mean we like it, but they are a bit further down the rebuilding trail than us. We are young and hopefully will learn from this loss. I hope to see improvements going forward, though. The ponies loss sure sucks. It will take time to get rid of that feeling. Lets grow and go get em boys. Go Mean Green

Hard to actually believe it would not be an SMU slant if it is on their network. Just makes sense. GMG
