Meh you’re just more of a whiner that if they don’t win every game the season is lost type of person. Must be a miserable existence Where's the trophy? Face it... we were not good this season. We got our tail kicked by the only decent teams we faced and we lost to Liberty. It's not whining it's stating the facts. I don't accept getting bent like you and I call it like I see it. Coach Brown did great with Blakeney's players and now that he is on his own, he doesn't win a championship. The way I see it, if he doesn't win a championship next season, we will be looking to replace him. And according to the poster, that makes us stinky. 9-3 is a fact, stinky is a subjective assessment.

You seem to have some personal issues with Neal Brown. No but i know thats not the same Neal Brown that called the plays when he was OC. Seems like when he came back from texas tech that he lost his juice. He is the head coach and darn good one but he just needs to give the play calling up. Thats not his calling anymore. He does a wonderful job as head coach we all know this...but we know the offense should be better and run better plays..doesnt matter who is hurt or not playing..everybody keeps saying next man up... i mean why recruit someone if we are not going to use them...thats a wasted scholarship to me. Recruit kids that you know you will play. All you hear is injuries, rb's not deep enough, we do have wr's! True we did have injuries two of them for the simple fact that dumb wr screen which never works was called. Rb's not deep but smith has been awesome this year. The o-line just sucked lastnight. We got wr's...but you need to share the ball instead of just putting those out there to block every play. I'll say it now Troy will be in the same position next year we will most likely be better than this year. But its gonna come down to the offensive playbook...🤔 A whole lot of legit statements in this post, especially about the facts about the injuries.

I am just sitting here honestly wondering? Stinky now what does that mean? If we actually look at this as a beginning of the season issue we ended and played most of the year without our starting or shared starting running back who was stinky. We played a lot of our season without Tight end starter (or inside starting receiver Letton). We played half a year with back up quarterback who grew well but is not now playing at our starters pace when he was hurt from dual threat perspective or zone read perspective. He did a good job but how would App be without Thomas or Clemson without Long hair boy or Alacrapa without Tongue-A-envelopa. Most teams really struggle without that spot then we played with hurt receivers including our top dog in the big game this week. I realize stinky is a SUBJECTIVE term but by most any logical or somewhat objective football fan with a decent fund of football knowledge would say “not perfect under a rough set of circumstances but stinky? Naw that is just pretty dang ignorant a person with that perspective.” Don’t believe me poll our friends over on CNBBS sunbelt talk. They could give you a much better definition of the term stinky to go on in the future. You of course are entitled to your perspective no matter how ludicrous or insanely stupid or moronic it is at any point during this season. I feel my IQ dropping 30 points or more every time I read poo like that.

You really think Letton being out had a big impact on the season?

I have to disagree with the Neal Brown critics. Not that he or any coach is perfect but look at the steps forward the program has taken since he took over. Yes it’s disappointing how this season ended but I think it’s been his best coaching job yet considering the injuries we encountered. I’m not ok with losing and it hurts everytime Troy loses but I’m also realistic enough to know that 9,10, 11 win seasons are hard for any school, even more so for a school as limited in resources as Troy. I am just trying to enjoy the ride and hope that when CNB moves on to a bigger program we have the right culture in place to take another step forward with the next hire. Go Trojans! On to the bowl game!

There are plenty of teams that would want to be way we are. And if we were healthy this year, I’d say it’s 11-1

That is because those teams are forgotten while 1968 lives on forever! Having a 9-3 season is forgettable. Only championships matter. Who will be remembered, BJ Smith or Jordan Chunn? Smith rushed for over 1000 yards this season which for running backs is a tremendous achievement. Without a championship, he will be forgotten.

Bro, I appreciate where you're coming from but I wouldn't call this season a bust. I wouldn't call our guys losers (not saying that's what you're calling them). We lost a lot of great players including our starting quarterback but we pressed on and the men underneath them stepped up. In the end the injuries caught up to us and we came up short.... this time. We lost because we physically couldn't go any further not for lack of guts and determination. We witnessed these men grow up and give it their all. The season isn't over yet, we still have a bowl game to prepare for and God help whoever stands across from us. And no matter the outcome we'll reload, recover and be back next year.

That school has 5 times the budget we do. I recall we beat some SEC school in Baton Rouge . LA last year too.

Please give Troy the Cure Bowl versus an AAC team! Please, please, please no Dollar General Bowl. Ladd Peebles Stadium in the winter against a MAC team isn't rewarding for a Troy team that did so well this year.
I hope the AD is having talks with the Cure...

My prediction. If App beats ULL we go to Mobile If ULL beats App we go to Montgomery / possibly Orlando, I didn’t read the pecking order but I know Johnny will grab TROY I’d at all possible.
NOLA going out on a limb so early claiming the champ really pigeon holes them and affects the system.
I will also bet cash money we do not visit Arizona during bowl season this year.

I’d appreciate no one telling me what I will and won’t remember. I remember a guy named Eddie Coleman - first guy to rush for 1,000 yards. I remember a guy named Kelvin Simmons. I remember a guy named Eric Mizzel. And you know what, none of those guys won a champiosnshkp, but they laid a foundation. In fact, I played multiple seasons with each of them. Several of us went on to lose in the 1993 semi-finals.
And Lord knows that several knobs on here never seem to forget Jeremy and that loss to GA Southern. He was a great representative for our university, and, frankly, doesn’t deserve the negative crap spewed here about him. He gave his blood, sweat, tears, time; he recruited and coached a lot of other great representatives from our alma mater.
So, please stop telling me what will and won’t be remembered. I have memories that you’ll never know about. And most of them are great guys that gave it their all and didn’t win a championship. But they are my brothers (and some sisters that were part of the training staff) that busted their humps for our program.
To belittle their accomplishments and efforts by saying that only championships matter is myopic at best.

Btw, there are 28 teams that are 75% winning percentage or higher at this point this season - 12 of them have 75% winning percentage. So, to say that we aren’t a good team, when only 16 teams in FBS have a higher winning percentage, is also myopic.

Of our 9 wins, only 3 come against teams with winning records. 1 of which is FAMU and is 1AA. Yeah I'll be myopic and look at the details.
