I get that. we have a handful of players that will be development projects. I was just saying that they didn't have measurables that jumped off of the page..6'0 175 and 5'9 170 if my memory serves correctly. For example we have a DE prospect commit that is 6'7 230, runs a 4.7. Very few offers and not much football experience I believe.

Don't get me wrong, they could end up being great, I just wouldn't know. Just not intriguing based on measurables. That said I don't care too much so I didn't watch their highlights or look up their speed

I'm putting my faith in Chad to continue his trend of doing the opposite of everything June did by actually beating a service academy.

Hopefully they remember to pay the sales tax on the new ownership

Good grief. One decent season and Memphis is the next Alabama in this clown's eyes. Dude we are just one year away from being up 30 points at the half with a garbage team in Memphis. I'm happy for Memphis they are no longer historically terrible like they were the previous four years. But tap the freaking brakes. Or better yet if you are in Memphis, don't stop for anything after 6PM.
Back off Warchild seriously.

I'm glad TigerJ is still alive- I was worried because I hadn't seen him on the basketball board recently.

SHOULD games- UNT,Tulane, USF, Navy
Toss ups/ Upset potential- Houston, Memphis, Tulsa, Temple, ECU.

With all the incredible offensive acquisitions, we should expect to have a very reasonable shot at a bowl. Remarkable improvement from being one of the worst teams in CFB history last season


Uhhhh, might want to take Navy off that should list. They came close against OSU and was only down by 3 with 10 minutes left in the 4th...gonna swap them for Tulsa if you don't mind. Would love to see them beat Navy as I plan to attend that game, but putting them in any category makes any other predictions you make suspect.

It probably has something to do with all the losing Memphis has done this season.

They'll go back to ignoring football when Fuente leaves them after the 2015 season.

How'd ya enjoy the beat down of your basketball team a little while back, since you were no where to be found when it was actually going down?

Interesting looks like SMU has flipped 5 commitments and flipped (back to SMU) 1 decommitment in this Class-probably a record

They've played OSU close before in years we played them and were still games we definitely could have won. That's the advantage of the triple option- you can go play close games with schools like that because they randomly have to switch to defending a confusing offense meant to negate talent gaps. Just saying if morris and co take care of business it should be a very winnable game. But perhaps you're right...should be in the tossups category. And Tulsa? Nah. They're a little ahead of us regarding talent (as far as what is currently on campus) and I'm sure Montgomery will make them more of a force next season. They're definitely a toss up until we see otherwise
