    I would counter with look how young they were, R-Sophomore, R-Sophomore, and Freshman (of the three I mentioned) with starting game experience. I would go a step further and say it's unfair to pin all those losses from the first two years on men that just started playing last year. Honesty our...

    2022 Transfer Portal

    I don't believe that, generally, but I believe as always the P5's will get the best athletes and therefore the bigger NIL deals. On the flip side NIL is marketing so technically every population center will have it's own NIL market and the amount depends on how much the local community follows...

    2022 Transfer Portal

    It would be smart play, get NIL deal, compete, let Bennett finish out his career or replace him if he gets hurt...either way a good chance for a HS QB to mature (similar to Trevor) before getting thrown into the fire. Play for the years and bounce to the NFL with 2 years of wear and tear on your...

    2022 Transfer Portal

    I'd counter that we have horrible facilities and it only takes a phone call for us to lose a guy. We lost at least 3 O-Linemen to Power 5 along with Mobley (who might be going to Ole Miss). BTW, there are reasons why some P5 guys are moving down, usually they are oversized guys who really...

    Well if you haven't been keeping up we've lost the majority of our Offensive line. Starting left tackle Steven Losoya (11 starts), Lance Robinson (12 starts) and Dorian Hinton (9 game starter at LG). Coach Polly is a cancer to the team and all the OL despises him which is why we have such an...

    Offensive Coordinator ideas

    Doubt it, South Alabama has way better facilities than us, new football stadium, covered practice fields, football operation center. Can't see it happening. If that's (Stockstill plans) is on the table I doubt Dearman would have left unless there is poison in the water here. Chances are he...

    When Stockstill is fired/steps down - who do we want?

    My personal opinion is without a change to Massaro or McPhee MT needs a motivator to inspire play of the guys we already have and help bring in more/better recruits. Ideally someone who is creative that can create a better environment for recruiting with the limited budget and facilities that...

    When Stockstill is fired/steps down - who do we want?

    I saw this story living in Georgia and I'm like 3 years ago he competed for a SBC Championship and beat a ranked App State twice (I think) and as you point out his record is better than our own guy. I like Lundsford he's a motivator and provides an upbeat culture but obviously he wasn't as...

    FOOTBALL Middle Tennessee(1-2; 0-1) @ Charlotte(2-1; 0-0) (CBSSN), 5:30PM, Friday, September 24, 2021

    You can’t control the clock on defense. Smart play is to use timeouts on defense for clock management, offense can run out of bounds, hurry up and clock it.

    FOOTBALL Middle Tennessee @ (RV) UTSA (ESPN+), 5PM, Saturday, September 18, 2021

    Mobley was out due to COVID protocol, along with DQ and Jaylin Lane…supposedly 4-5 others.

    Brent Dearmon

    There was a Dearmon video (link below) on one of these threads where Dearmon talking at a coaching clinic and the exact phrase the he used it's the "QB's job to fix the run". When the QB walks up to the line he has his Pre-SNAP read, he can short circuit any run play if he LOVES his Pre SNAP...

    FOOTBALL Middle Tennessee @ #19 Virginia Tech (ACC), 1PM, Saturday, September 11, 2021

    Gotta realize the two are r-Fr so in a normal world they would be r-So but due to COVID they are still called r-Fr. The Center on the other hand is a Freshman, I can't remember off the top of my head if he was here in 2020 because he also would still be called a Fr..I thought he might have...

    FOOTBALL UTSA opens -11.5

    I would take MT all the way on this, UTSA isn't that much better than MT but it wouldn't surprise me if MT won.

    FOOTBALL Your thoughts on what is likely to happen in San Antonio?

    Funny, I thought the same think $500k money game and we're taking the bus. I'm hoping we fly this week. It would have been nice to have another home game. MT is improved our Defense has improved substantially with 7 r-Fr in the first two lines that extra year makes a big difference and our...

    FOOTBALL your thought on how things go in Blacksburg?

    Wouldn't be smart, the better team should always press tempo. The goal of burning the clock is to impact the morale of the superior team to make them wonder why they aren't doing/performing better. On the flip side it makes the inferior team think "we're in this" and they fight harder. If I'm...

    FOOTBALL your thought on how things go in Blacksburg?

    I have a VT grad buddy who says the VT Defensive weakness is pass coverage in middle of the field. Stated VT has two lights out corners who are probably NFL bound at some point, he also stated their strength is man-to-man coverage which combined with the Brent Dearmon video make you think about...

    Best article by far, I haven't seen anything this detailed ever on the MTSU team. Love the insights. The section called "Time to Throw, Bailey Hockman" was interesting, what I'm unsure of is the time to throw stat based on how quickly the QB throws or when a defender shows up. If it's the...

    Usually it's behind a paywall on the Glazier Clinic, they record all the sessions and post it up for Glazier customers. Wouldn't surprise me if the AFCA does it as well. The Brent Dearmon video is great for us because it allows us to watch the offense and have a rough idea of what's happening.

    If you can't execute your four base runs then you can't run even if you have eight runs, repetition is key not overly complex playbook. At our High School our base runs are Isolation, Power, Counter, and Toss...sure we have a Jet Sweep and a "Base" play which is Isolation with blocking twist...

    FOOTBALL your thought on how things go in Blacksburg?

    Spread offenses use short passes as an extension to the run game. If we didn't open holes against Monmouth I'm not sure a week is long enough to get that corrected against a P5, but if Dearmon comes up with some creative 3x1 WR concepts to create natural picks combined with short route we can...
