What happened to FAU???
What happened? Seriously, not kicking you while you're down, I'm just curious to know what happened to the program? Tremendous downward spiral… and now a bad loss against WKU during your home opener. Although, you do have our number =)
Congrats on the new stadium as well.

The stadium is awesome. I mean, really really awesome. Can't wait until the Shula Bowl is here next year. Hopefully things will be completely different on our end.

That's more than enough for someone who just calls dive right, bubble screen, quick slant, all game.bighooter said
Just wondering but what is the budget for our staff…. I was told the Offensive coordinator only makes about 46k, how can we recruit good coaches in a D1 program with that kind of budget.

There is enough money though to get a coaching staff in there that gives a sh*t.

Re: What happened to FAU???
Gary Nord made over $150K as the OC. I'm sure Jackson isn't getting that, but it's got to be significantly more then $46K since he made close to that in 2008 as a WR coach. Heck, Hoza made $130K.
This also shows how valuable Nord was to this staff. Our offense hasn't been the same since he left, and neither has our recruiting of offensive talent. Rusty credited Nord for his development today on the radio. I guess it shouldn't be suprising that our QB play has been so terrible since they are being coached by Jackson (a WR coach) and Jared Allen (a coach with very little experience).

Agreed. Although people bemoaned his play-calling from time to time too, he helped us get into bowl games. The loss of Nord was more important than we probably realized at the time.
Jackson should have been demoted and a new OC should have been brought in before this season.
