Your right, and it's all guessing. Do you really think we would have been in the top half of the American? But saying were a good program because we're finishing 2nd this year in CUSA is like saying DD's teams should have been ranked in the top 20 due to their conference domination

Since we did play SMU and Memphis - We could guesstimate that we would have been near the bottom of the AAC

Would not be surprised to see him stay at JSU.

Texas State: Texas State has announced GJ Kinne as its next head coach. Kinne will remain with Incarnate Word through the Cardinals' playoff run; UIW hosts Furman in a Round 2 game tomorrow. Green - Hire made Yellow - AAC related Blue - Texas/potential recruiting related

Go kick some ass and bring home the championship!!

No turmoil? Seth is safe only because our standards are so freaking low. It continues to amaze me how many seem so determined to keep a High dollar very average coach. This attitude is probably one of the leading reasons we have so many alums who follow other colleges. #TimeToExpectMore #StopLowStandards

Completely agree! I hope that every team moving to the AAC, and the existing teams keep stepping up their games. I hope Mike Aresco keep the pressure on the Athletics Directors and Presidents to keep improving.

So we're about to play for the conference championship, yet, and sadly probably correctly, were worried about who we could hopefully be competitive against.

With all respect, we have been a middle of the pack CUSA team. How does changing the conference make us better?

Nice thoughts. Please, let me know one change we have made that leads you to honestly believe we are poised to take the next step?

This is a strange one. His work as the Head QB coach for the Elite 11 could help him land some good QB transfers from players wanting to improve their games. The key might be to not F-up the coordinator hires like Dodge did. Would not be surprised to see him keep, or at least offer, a lot of the current staff at UAB Deion has recruited good talent (P5 and G5) to JSU. The talent they play against is lower level FCS - Is it just the case of having talent that is so much better? Still not sure how good of a coach he is and it's doubtful he will have the same gap in talent level as he moves up But it will probably be a very exciting ride)

Morris vs Kinne

Seems to be a very good young coach. Not in our conference, but he will be recruiting against us

Me too since the mid 80s

The best thing about these lower tier bowls is the extra practice time.

If they improve at least our "Glass House" fans and claim the infamous "moral" highroad

https://footballscoop.com/news/everything-thats-on-the-line-in-college-footballs-championship-weekend Conference USA: North Texas at UTSA (7:30 p.m. ET Friday, CBS Sports Network) For UTSA: Let's start here: the only two FBS teams playing to defend their conference title are the No. 2-ranked Michigan Wolverines, the No. 11 Utah Utes, and the Roadrunners of UTSA. A win here makes UTSA the third team in C-USA history to post a 9-0 conference record, and two more wins should make UTSA the first C-USA team since 2015 Western Kentucky to finish in the AP Top 25. Either UTSA loses its final C-USA game, or it peaces out of the conference on a 10-game winning streak. UTSA and UNT will carry their rivalry into the American next season, but a Roadrunner win pushes the all-time ledger 6-5 in their favor with a 3-1 record under Jeff Traylor. For North Texas: It's now or never for the Mean Green. UNT joins the American next season, its ninth conference home since originally joining the Texas Intercollegiate Athletic Association one hundred years ago. The Mean Green never won the Big West in their five seasons in the league, but they did win at least one crown in their other six conference homes. And so now, in the final game of their 10th and final season in Conference USA, this is their last shot to win it. UNT played for the C-USA title in 2017, but was blown out by a juggernaut Lane Kiffin-led FAU team. That may very well be their fate on Friday night; UTSA is 22-4 over its last two seasons, but within those 26 games are a blowout loss last season in Denton and a skin-of-their-teeth win in the Alamodome earlier this season. At 7-5, a wide delta of possibilities still exist for Littrell's team. They could be the only Mean Green outfit to win a Conference USA championship, or they could find themselves 7-7 by Christmas break.

As soon as players started skipping the games the damage was done.

OK Wren, so how about scheduling a Home and Home with the Mean Green!!

Don't be so hard on yourself

This has been a weak area. I would be fine with hiring Mosley but we need to make sure we do it for the right reason. Sometimes, even when things seem to be running well, its not a bad idea to bring in an outsider if you are trying to take things up a level.
