  • Re: GDT: @ JMU Bulldogs With Too Much Bling

    Wanted to drop back in and say congrats to you guys on a great season. Tough way to go out but a lot of bright futures in store for your program. For those who made it to Harrisonburg I hope it was a great trip nd we treated you with respect. For those who wandered through P Lot tailgate I hope we got you some beer and food. Best of luck next year and hope we meet again for another game.

High octane offenses are feast or famine and as fun as fast break football is to watch, strong D and a strong run game win championships.
      You both beat me to a posting regarding the "future," although I think returning WRs and TEs could help balance the offense (even if they aren't Goedert and Wieneke).

        They strung together quite the win streak after the Hobo Day Debacle, which seems to suggest they had some grit and perseverance. I hear you about the USD fans at work; oh well, they won't get me to change my allegiances.

          Sure seems to be that way.

          Is it?

          It joins it....


          Always good to be embarrassed on a bigger stage I always say....

          Those discussing SDSU's culture might want to check the coaches' bios for JMU (OC & DC). You think their pedigrees might have something to do with the culture there?

          Would those of you chalking this up to Stig (not saying you, Thumper -- just responding to the most recent "culture" post) be willing to concede that Stig's making progress with comparatively fewer staff resources than comparable programs?

            Let's be realistic, they would give up a certain body part to have won two more games and made it to the national semi's. ( Or to even have their first winning season in the MVFC. EVER.)

              Terrible game, but great season. 11 wins. The Jacks finish 2017 as one of the top four FCS teams in the nation. Thank you Dallas, Jake, Jacob, Kellen and you other 11 seniors who helped bring the program to a new high. Overall, it was a very good season, and the future looks bright.
              This space for lease.

                That would require me to try to think like a 'Yote -- not a road I want to travel

So few of the fans know what these players actually go through as Studenr/Athletes that stick it out for their whole careers. They work so hard and I want nothing but success for them. That is why I am so passionate and get so high when they win and so low when they lose. It was a great season with a disappointing end. We will be back, starting with the early signing day on Wed.

                  This is what I think kills me the most about this game. Really sucks to watch several all time greats go out like this. Oof.

                    It is doubtful that in our lifetimes we will ever see the likes of a Jake and Dallas on the field at the same playing for the Yellow and Blue. I'm just glad I got to see it.

                      I hope you are wrong. 😏

                        Looking at JMU's roster, it appears they have the following 9 FBS transfers:

                        #3 Little (LB): 2yrs at Maryland
                        #13 Ishmael Hyman (WR): 1yr at Kansas
                        #15 Ron'dell Carter (DL): 2yrs at Rutgers
                        #19 David Eldridge (WR): 2yrs at Virginia
                        #29 Marcus Marshall (RB): 2yrs at Georgia Tech
                        #47 Darrious Carter (DL): 2yrs at Virginia
                        #52 Landan Word (LB): 1yr at Virginia
                        #61 A.J. Bolden (OL): 1yr at Toledo
                        #71 EJ Donahue (OL): 2yrs at Maryland

                        That could have something to do with the "culture" too.

                          Meh. I woulda said the same thing when Wolters graduated. Now we have Daum.

                            Or Lewis and Devlin standing by. As others have mentioned, I am probably more excited for continued improvement/strength in LBs and DBs next year.

                                Exactly. People were like we will never see anyone as great as Wolters in our lifetime. We have him now. And Jenkins might be the next all time great.
