    FOOTBALL Link to introducing Derek Mason as FB HC

    I thought that was huge. We have the Alabama of Tennessee High School Football 5 minutes from Campus and for that coach who (i think) has won 4 of the last 6 state championships and played for a 5th one last weekend to endorse this hire speaks volumes about his trust in sending his students to...

    Derek Mason Reaction Thread

    What is this source? I've seen a lot of people saying he had less than stellar showings at those schools, but this says otherwise.

    Assistant Pool Discussion

    Is it crazy to think we could pay Craddock enough to lure him back home from Troy? I don't know how seriously he was considered for the HC job, but that would be awesome to get the best of both worlds with Mason's experience and defense acumen to pair with the former player and hot young OC...

    Should the Sun Rise Again...

    So many good ways to enjoy a fall afternoon. I let MT football control my family's schedule and activities for way to long. It's like the veil is lifted and I don't know if we'll ever go back to the way we were before.

    Remember, Numbers Don’t Lie

    Absolutely. Does anything think we'd revert to anything but the mean of wherever we're playing? We need change for sure - but not a change back to FCS. Talk about irrelevancy.

    Remember, Numbers Don’t Lie

    I can't believe the conversation about dropping football to FCS is even happening. Not saying it shouldn't be happening (even though I want no part of dropping it), but I'm just in disbelief it's gotten this bad.

    FOOTBALL Thoughts after Duke

    Absolutely to both questions! If we had shown up and played a competitive game against a P5 that we were 6 point dogs to in front of a big home crowd, I'd be happy with that. It's just time after time, we lose badly when we have the region's, our students, and our alumni's attention. We can't...

    The reason all of us are so frustrated

    Don't confuse the games not being on 89.5 with them not offering ways for students to get involved with athletics. Chris Childers got his start announcing women's softball games. I remember those days very well. And as MiddTennMtneer pointed out, look around at the game and you'll see all kinds...

    UNIVERSITY NEWS Middle Tennessee Boulevard opens (mostly) March 6

    Middle Tennessee State University is a state school in the middle of the state. University of Middle Tennessee is THE school for Middle Tennessee. Perception matters. If not when we made the move to D1, we should have made the change during the centennial campaign.

    FOOTBALL I’m in for TSU and Duke

    Won't be as easy as you hope. You'll spend a lot of time at the bounce houses, the bathroom, and the in the line for the balloon guy. (Don't wait on that, they mean it when they say he's made his last balloon and you don't want your kid to not get a balloon once he's seen them!) So relax, have...

    FOOTBALL Blue Raider Beer Garden

    They had to get it legal in 2017, experiment (prove to the naysayers hellfire wouldn't rain on the campus) in 2018, and expand it in 2019. I think they've wanted this for a long time, but unfortunately something involving alcohol at games takes a lot longer than it should to work out.

    FOOTBALL Blue Raider Beer Garden

    I'd heard rumblings of this, but didn't want to jinx it in another thread. This is fantastic. I love that there will be small batch beers brewed and named in a theme based on our opponent for that week. I hope I can get them all checked in on Untppd!
