Please elaborate on the scuttlebutt so I can sleep better tonight! I’m not sure if it will do any good by I e-mailed Dr Hawkins today! I just had to do it to let him know that I am extremely happy for the work our AD has done to have a 12 game season but how disappointed I am with the coaching staff!

I just received a message from Dr Hawkins. I liked it and I do trust him!
“ I appreciate your concern & trust a turnaround is forthcoming. We do not compete to lose”
I am happy to be able to communicate with our AD and Chancellor and get such quick responses.

Alright. Take a page from the AD and Chancellor. Half full. Glass is half full. Only problem is it's yellow and undrinkable. Give it a rest man. We heard it the other 156 times on every thread. “When you’re trying to solve problems, negative people will always come up with a reason it won’t work.” “Negative people get pleasure from things going bad . They love having excuses to whine and complain.”

I just had to do it to let him know that I am extremely happy for the work our AD has done to have a 12 game season but how disappointed I am with the coaching staff! Hawkins has done a lot of good for the University but he is way past his prime. When he came in when we were both at Troy he had a fire to make Troy successful and those 90's teams across the spectrum were awesome. I personally don't trust him on hiring coaches. Hartwell isn't here anymore to stand up to him and Brent will do what he says. I fully trust our AD, input from former players, input from several on this board that go to every game (home and away) and boosters over Hawkins and some others in our administration who are hung up on a name and a SEC beside their name. If we continue to do that we are hiring looking through a straw instead of high powered wide angle binoculars. Look for the intangibles..Discipline, organizational skills, prior success, and what players that played for him think of him. Neal wasn't perfect (no coach is) but what he did here matters and we should have studied the discipline, culture and organizational skills he had and looked for those traits. Great leaders and great coaches have many of the same traits. Thinking you are going to find one that doesn't have them is border line insanity.

OK! Itâs a new day and I did sleep well after reading a message from Dr. Jack! I know nothing has changed and (The HC we don’t speak of) is still the head coach but I know that Our Chancellor cares dearly about our program ! I will not allow anything to ruin my day unless the scuttle butt is that (The HC we don’t speak of) is getting an extension! Nothing could be worse than that. Please do tell!

I will not allow anything to ruin my day unless the scuttle butt is that (The HC we don’t speak of) is getting an extension! Â Nothing could be worse than that. Â Please do tell! Here ya go ! Breaking News on (The HC we don’t speak of) Option 1: He is a final OC candidate at a major P5 school making $2 million. Option 2: Troy extended his contract 5 more years. Itâs 100% guaranteed. Buyout is 100% of contract. Option 3: (The HC we don’t speak of) has seen Buddhaâs call to the Light. Moving to Tibet to be a monk in a Buddhist order. ( shaved head already done) Option 4: Took up side gig as fry cook at the Half Shell. Option 5: Heeding the call of the message board and is converting offense to a special combination of the Flexbone, Triples Option and Wing T. Option 6: Will personally oversee the cooking and packaging of all hotdogs served at The Vet on game day. (Working on new cups) Option 7: Has vowed to run naked from the Crowes in Troy to the Crowes in Brundidge while eating 20 medium snacks with extra sauce IF we dont win the conference championship next year. Option 8: is suiting up himself as a player/coach. Will play slot back this week. Found loophole in NCAA rules and granted eligibility.

I like option 3 ! Iâm really glad I asked because I got a good laugh out of that! You forgot option 9 (The HC we don’t speak of) follows Southern Miss coaches lead and realizes he sucks and quits!

So Liberty had to cancel the Coastal game because of the coronavirus, but Coastal struck a deal with BYU. Official now. That's a ranked matchup at a Sun Belt school with GameDay in attendance. 2020 is wild, man.

That's a ranked matchup at a Sun Belt school with GameDay in attendance. 2020 is wild, man. If this is actually pulled off it really speaks to the uncertainty and unpredictability of 2020. It would be hard for Coastal to win. BYU has really nothing to lose. Thus makes total sense to have Covid wipe out the playing capability of #25 and replace with #10 or something like that on the Teal surface of a school who realistically has a little stadium and did not even play football till a few years ago. They also have a hyped up Chicken as their mascot...…………..and game day would be there to see it. If Liberty did make it without their stud QB it really would not be much of a match. Coastal would win and it would do little to change their fortunes or the perception of the Belt. BYU is a on a short time to prepare and all the notes on them is that they were trying to get some PAC 12 teams to play to enhance any chance they had. Then comes along a ranked Chicken from across the country and if they annihilate them (BYU pounds them) bad for Coastal but would probably give them a shot of being in New Years 6 and even a chance at playoffs...……………………………………...ONLY 2020 could bring you this. I will be glad when 2020 is over. But this as far as the football season has got to be one of the weirdest moments in a really really weird season.

Congratulations Coastal. 10 years ago, the Sunbelt Conference was the worse Conference in D1 football.
However, we were the cream of the crop and now we are falling fast with the talent we have.....🥲🥲🥲🥲

High tide pulls all members up a notch. GO you Fancy Chickens!!! media.giphy.com/media/lwMgogJ41Nty8/giphy.gif
