Shows what a SPLIT personality the Sun Belt has currently!
Three teams in the top half of the poll👍🏼 I remember when getting a team from the Sun Belt in the 60’s consistently would have been something to talk about.
SIX teams (including Troy) in the bottom 25% is definitely what nightmares are made of!!! I thought we woke up from that about five years ago, but evidently we fell back asleep. 🤦♂️

How dare you point out facts about the football program! You're not a coach, how do you know? We're doing fine with (The HC we don’t speak of). He's a fine coach with fine character, and if you point out otherwise I'm going to close my eyes, cover my ears and go, "Lalalalalalalalalala!"

Only kidding but just as the Cubby fans for years would say: wait till next year! The Ron Santos, Ernie Banks guys loved those years! (I was born close to when they played) But they endured and so shall we!!! By the way almost all will be forgiven when we go 14-0 this year. Also the great Pumpkin will rise in the East and deliver toys to all the good boys and girls.

We have fallen because of 1 reason, poor coaching! We have the talent, we have the facilities, we have great fans! We can rebuild this just like Steve Austin the 6 million dollar man! Sept 11 will tell us how the season is going to go! Last year (The HC we don’t speak of) had a chance to defend the wall and build some momentum against a ranked opponent and blew it! Letâs pray that he has learned from his mistakes and let the new OC call the plays!

I donât want to dig up old stuffâ¦..However, less distractions (no matter how young they were) and feet to fire probably will help at least the appearance of trying. So we shall see. Oh and above where I said young I might have used new or old they are.

A doctor shoots you in the foot twice, then he puts a band-aid on one of the wounds.
"Wow, he's really turning it around!"
I don't want effort from a coach for fear of getting fired, I want effort because he's a winner. Sadly, with (The HC we don’t speak of), that is not the case.

PROCESS:
People in life think it's all about where you START and where you FINISH to be successful, but the PROCESS is what makes the start and finish viable.
Question: Does (The HC we don’t speak of) understand the series of progressive and interdependent steps by which an end is attained to be successful, or simply put a WINNER?

It all began with the assistant coaches. In year one (The HC we don’t speak of) hired 5 guys who had never coached on a D1 field before and it showed. A strength coach was hired who was clearly not the right guy for the program. Neal Brown may be the most structured / anal coach in football and had every moment timed out in a 24 hour period, that staff worked long hours and focused on the smallest details. This staff did the opposite on all levels. It did not take long for everything to start imploding, the cluelessness really started showing at all levels. Last year was a little better with those coaches having a year under their belt and the hiring of a new strength coach (probably resulted in a couple of those wins). I've gone on record to say the three assistants (The HC we don’t speak of) hired this year are the best three hires he's made since he's been here. We shall see how the Trojans finish.

In year one (The HC we don’t speak of) ... single handedly ran off one of the most electric players we've seen in a long time. I'm guessing you're referring to Marcus Jones. Very "Jernigan-like" in a lot of ways. Just curious, what did (The HC we don’t speak of) do to make him want to leave Troy?

I just figured guys like he and and a few others just didn't jive with the new staff and wanted something more like what Neal Brown was providing, which is understandable.

Great dialogue ! I agree with everything said and I hope the new coaches will help right the ship! (The HC we don’t speak of) needs to have confidence in the OC to be the OC and not a puppet! Hopefully (The HC we don’t speak of) has learned from his first 2 years. As I have stated many times we will know how the season is going to go after the results of the Sept 11 game with Liberty! We will be able to see whether or not there has been a dramatic improvement or not. I am pulling hard for a turnaround! (The HC we don’t speak of) owes it to the Trojan nation for not being prepared for the first 2 years.

(The HC we don’t speak of) should be let go if we go undefeated.
This guy is electric - get him the ball coach. I want to have fun at the games at least.

How many other schools let you keep your job after two straight losing seasons? Maybe La. Monroe? Not many.
It's not a good thing Troy does that, it's bitten our a$$ off before and it's about to happen again.

I will be at the game Sept 11, and if we do not win (The HC we don’t speak of) should be let go then ! Iâm sure they would not pull the trigger after only 2 games but if we start 1-3 he needs to go. T the sooner the better ! If we win Sept 11 then (The HC we don’t speak of) probably sees the season play out !
