Agbenou moves in for injured Dillon Vann at OLB; Jack Owen to back up Perryman for Agbenou - hope Porter gets some run as he seems very athletic
Agbenou to BANDIT is interesting, when we signed him it's kind of where I visualized him. What happened to Porter? He was pretty good over the last few years and has sort of disappeared....

Agree w Paul - great minds think alike and so do we... By that I mean all credit to Agbenou (I know he is a freak) but I hope to see Porter as he was listed as 3 best w Vann and Hope at Bandit in preseason talk by CH. CH said we have 3 - Hope and Vann and Porter.. Porter played v CSU (I just looked at CSU notes) so hope to see Agbenou and Porter out there so 81 can stay fresh to for passing rush

rumors at ETSU "I haven't seen anything on the quarterback situation. Is Thrasher (15) 100% ready to go or are they going to stay with Mitchell? (#5) " - so we may see the QB they have wanted to play from Coastal ... he got hurt v App State

ETSU may not have the best record but they have a great D. Giving 24 (reg) and 14 to VMI and AP respectively. Win v AP 20-14. DL maybe best in league. Great DBs too. Will Fr 5 play at QB or is the guy they wanted from Coastal 15 gonna play? Also think I heard number 49 all conf dL has been out and may be back..

mentions a lot of our LBs and DBs by name - article starts by saying we are better at 'all three levels of D' so I thought "there is your three points of the article" ... then they don't mention any DL by name which is a little odd though I did notice they say more depth on DL
Great? As good as the Mercer defense? Oh no, I’m scared. Seriously, Furman by 30.

ETSU's defense is better than Mercer's. Of course, the Mercer offense is better than ETSU's, and Furman held that group to 10 points.

Taking away a VERY short field (24 yards) after a blocked punt, APSU’s Offense scored the same number of TD’s (2) on Mercer’s Starting Defense as they did on ETSU’s.

ETSU has 2 outstanding DE’s...when they are playing hard (watch the VMI video...you’ll see what I mean - on 66 pass attempts, between them, they had 1.5 sacks & 1 QB Hurry). Against APSU, one of those DE’s Stat Line was “1 QB Hurry” - that’s all of it...0 tackles, 0 assists, 0 sacks, 0 TFL’s...and the other one did not play.

They also have 2 outstanding players in their secondary. Against, VMI (66 pass attempts), they had 0 INT’s & 5 pass breakups.

Their other 7 Defensive Players are ‘just guys.’

Mercer’s Offense scored 4 TD’s on APSU’s D. ETSU’s Offense scored 2.

There was no ‘garbage time’ in either APSU @ Mercer or APSU @ ETSU. Teams played mostly starters, with typical rotations, throughout the game.

Furman 54 - ETSU 12
