Is there a “reverse NIL” program? Where we can contribute to a fund to pay players to transfer out? If there is, count me in 😂😂😂
Good point. I don’t think we have an “experience” problem at all. Some of these kids are just not very good. I don’t see the size, attitude and athleticism necessary for this level of Div 1 football. Looks to me like our recruiting was not up to par. e.g we don’t have a lineman who can snap the ball properly in a shotgun. I am not impressed by either of our QBs
We are lacking in some key areas. Sure, injuries contributed to the problem but some of the guys that just aren’t getting it done aren’t backups.

Of course as soon as I post that about our db’s we pick off passes on 2 consecutive possessions. :)

Sorry but someone should be fired. Get a gift, great field position and you play for a fg. Just terrible play calling.

Sitting there watching tv and trashing these 18-19 year old kids playing their ass off is something I just don’t get. Many teams would have quit at this stage. Am proud of how these boys are fighting.
I agree. They are and have been fighting on both sides of the ball. D has been decimated. O just has not seemed to play to our strengths.

Finally a great call! Congrats to the coaches and players. Great effort. Unfirtunately for ETSU this eliminates them from the playoffs.

AP You whiffed on your pre game pick. Bad. Never underestimate the heart of a Paladin

We should recruit the ETSU band. They are good.

This game was really the mirror image of last week at VMI.

Last week we were clearly the better team but made a series of critical mistakes that cost us the game. This week that role was played by ETSU.
