3rd and 8 and that’s your call? Yikes! Yall. What the hell? That was awful. But hey, great group of guys! When we look at the film we'll see that our scheme excuses me from any responsibilities associated with my inability to coach. Signed. CL PS. Hey, wait.... it was my prolific coaching problems that came through.

This all depends who we hire. And assumes we will have an opening. Iâm saying that itâs already too late to pull off a coaching switch to the same level of success they just did. Unless we hire an absolute bombshell. ANSLEY Oh, forgot. He doesn't check all the boxes. What boxes did (The HC we don’t speak of) check? Please, someone list demdere check boxes. Which we wonât.

Park at the Hampton or the Marriott and ride the Shuttle bus to the game. Let’s you off at the Alumni House. Downtown on the square gets the job done also. The other hotels are there. I've done that route too. That sounds good. I won't be staying at the hotel but those are easy to get to. Is there a shuttle schedule? I just park there. About every 15min or so.

How desperate is CUSA that they have to go raiding the FCS ranks? As bad as I hate Jax St I hope they move up and WHUP JAX ST again. They will be competitive. They have the facility. Sam Houston is going to have to spend some money as their current stadium only seats 12,000. Also at the current rate FCS is going to be the HBCU's, The Dakota's/Montana and the Ivy League. Malik Willis will be going to the next level. So goes Liberty as did LSU.

What's the best place to park? I always lived close to campus so I could easily just walk from my apartment. It's been too long since I've been to Troy. Park at the Hampton or the Marriott and ride the Shuttle bus to the game. Let’s you off at the Alumni House. Downtown on the square gets the job done also. The other hotels are there. I've done that route too.

They are bad. Real bad. But they are not as bad as we are. The Troy defense *might* show up and hold them to 21 points, but the offense will not get close to a score. They do have a decent defense. Just think of them as us, with SEC players. "Really disappointed we didn't play better," Troy head coach (The HC we don’t speak of) (The HC we don’t speak of) said after the game. "Give Monroe some credit, they did a good job tonight. Obviously, I didn't have our guys ready to play. That's on me. That's my responsibility. "We've got to get better. Right now, we're shooting ourselves in the foot in a lot of ways. We've got to do some soul-searching, figure out what our identity is going to be. Obviously, the last couple weeks our identity has not been what we thought it is." The above is why I find SCAR only favored by 7 odd. Our head coach is trying to figure out our identity after the 4th game of the season. 3rd year and what is it 39 games? Identity. OK It's our Identity. Yeah, I'll not be able to buy that or even consider an offer.

Hawkins will take the discount route, for sure. John Hartwell must've been the only AD with balls to tell Hawkins to ante up more money for coaches. In the meantime last 10 years we have 3 winning seasons. Like I told people in the know when Larry was retiring, either put up the money or move back to FCS. CNB was hired. Time again to belly up with the money and at least try and get Ansley. I'll even bet even money that Vic will. Ansley has been a DC at Tennessee so he has experience and he loves coaching. As it was mentioned on another post, if he can coach prima-donnas in the NFL, 18-22 year old young men should not present any major dilemmas.

Derrick Ansley...it's time. Wholeheartedly agree with you. I wanted Derrick during and after his first stint at Alabama when he was a GA. DERRICK BE THE FIT. End the speculations. Al.,Tenn., NFL, Kentucky, Al. Again, and Nick did not want him to go. Ansley has the experience and the mindset that is necessary to get players motivated and bring the program forward, even more forwarder. I believe he is the Dbacks coach with the LA Chargers at present

Once read ( think Drew Champlain wrote it) that each year Troy wins one it shouldn’t and looses one it shouldn’t. Let’s hope Saturday is not the latter. Neal Brown for sure. Biggest win in Troy history over LSU and then we lose at home to south Gump and we put up 8 points. Weird. I'm sure there are other examples, but that has to be the biggest example. 04 Marshall Win, Missouri Win, lose to New Mexico St. That be big-ard. Possible undefeated season. We had a great team. A Malone, Beware DWare, Dewhitt, and many others. I believe Troy had 6guys in the NFL from that team. CLB was really disappointed with that NMSt. loss. Lots of us were.

This guy can certainly kick the ball. I sat pretty high last Saturday and it looked like he was lofting it above the stadium. Not much of a chance for a return. BUT, someone needs to coach him to aim for the five (or ten) yard line on his shorter punts. We used to have a punter named Olmstead that was a master at it. Does anyone know whatever happened to him? Did he make it to the NFL or CFL? Thomas Olmsted Navy SEAL. Sorry, hit the post button two times. All thumbs . Met him and his Squad at the Miss. ST. Game a few years back

FWIW: I like the schedule however am tied up On the first game and can not come. Now now the Debbie Downers or the Negative Nancy’s or even the Cataclysmic Chips may say: “heck that is too bad because that is probably our only almost for sure win” I do understand but if I have to miss a home game then that would be one that I would miss the least. Covid be gone there is a chance of attending a couple of away games (USM and Tx St) but have duties for other away games. Anyhoo, if I could see 7 this year that would be an upgrade from last year. Heck and who knows that first one I miss may Only be one of many wins!!! Just looks good and having South on a Saturday is a giant plus. Go Troy!!! I bought 2 yugo's. One I drove in a ditch, and I used the other one to cover it up.

I don't even understand how the CL hire made sense. If CL is let go at the end of this season I am hoping we take time to find the right guy that takes our program forward, not 2 steps back.

Watching coach Bolt on the sideline was a true game within a game. Such entertainment. Fat Coach Bolt was far more entertaining than Skinny Coach Bolt. In jest. But for his sake and health, I’m glad Coach got that under control. Yep, you could always recognize his Buick by the left tilt.

This wave of hires is the best moves CL has made since he's been here. Ball hawking IS BACK Now, get Courtney Upshaw for DL/LBs. He is presently a volunteer Coach at UAB to the best of my knowledge-based research. Brick hasn't stayed anywhere for more than 4 years. Upshaw Upshaw Upshaw Upshaw UPSHAW Jernigan WR COACH

Interesting times since “Do the right thing is really relevant right now.” Let’s keep the topics coming, I got 4 years to think mostly about Troy football. Are U at ATMORE? 4 Years...huh...Hard time or golf club resort? People want to know.

Wish I was making that kind of money!!! I’m not sure I’m a CL supporter, but I’m am about fairness. as you are aware, I’ve sent private messages to the most vocal people posting about the rumors, and only one responded, saying they he got is info from a post on this page. I would like to know the truth about the rumors, true or false! Feel free to PM me with any info you have, I would like to find out the truth before I continue to support this coach and program. And you really must think we are stupid to respond to a poster that joined two weeks ago. Find out for yourself. It's not even difficult to do. It's well known around the Troy area Did some research for yelp. Here yahoo g0 Yelp is an American public company headquartered in San Francisco, California. The company develops, hosts, and markets the Yelp.com website and the Yelp mobile app, which publish crowd-sourced reviews about businesses. It also operates an online reservation service called Yelp Reservations

No loss whatever. Horrible coaching style and he stunk as a co/OC. We need someone like Schlarman or Moore. Right temperment and a teacher. He had to much of his idiot HS coach in him. So I understand that Baylor may be a dumpster and he be bringing the fire.

Terry Bowden was able to get Akron, of all teams, to beat two P5 teams (Northwestern and Pitt)... won a MAC division title... smacked Marshall... beat Utah State in a bowl game... and led them to their first 8 win season in 30 years. This could be a great move for ULM. Yep....Oh yeah, and We Beat them twice.
