We had better torch this team. New QB or not. If we turn the ball over like crazy again I am going to finish my resignation letter to McPhee.

I've been looking all over, goblueraiders.com, twitter, facebook, youtube. Did Stockstill have a press conference on Monday? I can't find evidence of it or I've missed it.

 

[MT Glenn]

Is that our Jeremy Kellem working as the analyst for the ESPN3 broadcast?

 

[SpaceRaider]

Is that our Jeremy Kellem working as the analyst for the ESPN3 broadcast?

yep, he's been the analyst guy on most espn+/3 home broadcasts and even a Blue Raider radio broadcast when Counts couldn't go.

 

[raiderwolfy]

I think Jeremy did a good job.

 

[blueraiderJT]

Gotta love the game time. 2:30. That's exactly when UGA is playing UT. I wonder what folks in our coveted television market are going to watch? LOL. CUSA is so awesome. Judy is gonna really take it to the next level with this new media deal. We will get to watch plays on tik tok or complete games on the dark web.

 

[SpaceRaider]

FWIW

 

[SpaceRaider]

If there's been a consistently worse AD in C-USA, it's been Garcia. I don't even think our own Massaro comes close to being as bad.

You want games on ESPN, they get to decide the game time.

 

[SpaceRaider]

I've never gotten the why streaming espn+/3 has to be a certain time. Since it's streaming why can't the start time be what the host team would like it to be.

 

[blueraiderJT]

We're not on ESPN. We are on ESPN+. Big difference. CUSA could have their own streaming service and it would be the same. IT doesn't help us at all. At least in the MAC we wouldn't have played at the EXACT SAME TIME as SEC games. I mean come on.

We get to be on Stadium. I was so nervous watching the WKU game because I was afraid the FBI would be kicking down my door at any minute, because I was watching a bootleg telecast.

 

[mtfblue]

Since Espn is trying to gobble all the content, will that leave spots with Fox, Bally, Stadium, Hulu and other streaming services?

Doesn’t change the fact that they get to decide what time the game is. Now MACtion is one the same nights as college basketball, so they still have competition for viewers. Also being in TV during the week has not really helped out the MAC much. CUSA on Facebook is terrible and should end, but going to the MAC to play on Tuesdays is not the savior people act like.

 

[crposton]

Fox needs to make an FS1+ or whatever. Really invest in competing with ESPN for college sports. Of course some people on here would still complain because it isn’t ESPN.

 

[MTLynn]

Not many games were broadcast just a few years ago... it will continue to get better as time goes on.

They have FS2

“Ok, Let’s do it” — Salute to Veterans and Armed Forces helmet stripes promise to impress - Middle Tennessee State University Athletics

MURFREESBORO, Tenn. — Summers in a collegiate athletic department can feel a bit lazy compared to the hustle and bustle that happens once teams' seasons are underway.

I gotta say those helmets are freaking cool.

From Stockstill's interview:

He seems to be pleased with staying in CUSA. CUSA has a chance to positively rebrand itself across all sports, not just football with the new additions. Doesn't sound like he wanted to join the MAC. He believes having a championship game is very important for CUSA which we won't have now with all the departures. He believes we need to find a way to get there to get a championship game again. We will have to add more teams to get a championship game + retain the teams we have.

Likes the additions of SHSU and Jacksonville State, believes they have good football programs. Liberty has "phenomenal" facilities.

WKU game was impossible to win with 7 turnovers, simple as that. Learning experience. Believes Vattiato will bounce back and have a good game against FIU this week.

Last 3 games will define the season. Going to be a losing season, bowl eligible, or a winning season based on these last 3 games. FIU is "scary." Bad record, but lost some close games, and good players on their roster. Statistically their QB is top 3 in almost all stats in the conference, lots of speed at skill positions, one of the top RB's in the country and they ran for 300 yards on us last year. One of the top punters in the league. Very dangerous football team.

Just have to add one more. 10 gets you a championship game. The SBC has one now with 10. The big 12 got that changed a while ago.

Could someone please reach out to channel 2 and send them a better picture of our helmet? Maybe even one of the cool matte black ones? Again, low hanging fruit for our crappy AD to improve our image a bit. Doesn't take much.

That photo of the helmet is embarassing looking. Looks like 1970's

Wish we could play like this against a team with a pulse.
