Re: My Thoughts on SMU FB

Sorry for your loss. I can't imagine how you're feeling right now.

But your point holds true, we do not and will not have a base to sustain ourselves. Our last great chance to win and get the ball rolling was '12-'13 when we had Gilbert. We could have left a mark on the conference, got some new ...

Re: My Thoughts on SMU FB

We are a D II school masquerading as a rebuilding D I-A football program.

I've stopped blaming Pye, the Death Penalty, Dale Hansen's investigation, or any other [deleted] that happened in the 80's, That was generations ago. All that's left is a school that it trying really hard to hold onto the ...

Re: National Championship Game

Yeah, much more classy for Ohio State to score and put Mariota back out there to risk injury again. Good call. The game was over...padding stats with another td is never classy

Re: Best fans in college football

It will be interesting to see how our donation levels and attendance behave when we reach that turning point when we pass the 10 win barrier and stay there. Basketball seems like it has staying power, need next years Morris' program to get there too.


It will increase obviously. is it enough to ...

Re: Worst-Case Scenario with the Football Program

Fan apathy is never going to improve until we start a) beating teams people care about and b) are nationally relevant and really until we are in a real conference.

Marshall is undefeated right now. No one cares. Conference affiliation is king.

If we are going to stay in a second tier of d1 ...

Re: Dan Hawkins

Absolutely not. The whole point of getting a new coach is to ensure we stop failing. He is a proven failure. Why should we even consider him?

Re: How Many Legit D1A Players Do We Have?

I think if the coaching was different we'd win a few games and wouldn't be doubting the players' D I status.

Re: 1989 team vs. 2014 team

Even our 2003 winless team were in games. Sure they snapped defeat out of the laws of victory more than once, and had their share of blowouts, but they were right there in the mix about half the time.


That team would shut out this years team.

Re: Who else gets the feeling that many players have checked

1980 do you honestly think our morale was somehow higher during the first 3 games?


I don't think the players ever checked in at any point during this season.

Pretty sure his last four seasons are why most think he's a washed up old failure who can't coach or recruit. For some inexplicable reason some people think those seasons don't matter and Mack is ...

Re: Effort

It's recruiting and coaching that will fix this...stop blaming the fans, we draw appropriately for an 0-12 team.


This. Stop blaming the fans who are at the game. Stop blaming fans who are not at the game. Just stop blaming the fans, period.
