You’re not going to get people interested in baseball by bad mouthing football. I know it’s frustrating, I wish more people got into basketball but it is what it is.Posted On: Feb 29th 2020, 8:29 PM #394319
On www.gsufans.com (Flight Line Sports Board) we do talk about all sports but a football tread is always started once or twice a week. This week the thread is about having to play App. State on a Thursday night which no one likes and will lead to lower attendance against a top rival.

Why are all the key players leaving? The wagon seems to be already starting in the wrong direction. Both tight ends, corners, and our best linebacker. Chris is going to put the team on his back this year with our running backs.Posted On: Apr 12th 2020, 10:55 AM #394641
It doesn't have much to do with Willie as it does with college football in 2020.
For every TJ Chase player that transfers here, we will probably lose one.
Guys like Dotson and Raine are taking their shot at playing at the highest level.
FAU has been fortunate in this respect over the last few years.
I expect FAU to make a couple moves to add back to the roster before the season gets underway.

I think Raine is able to be more easily replaced but Dotson will be hard to replace next season because we are extremely thin on CB. But wasnt Dotson more of a lurking corner that would kind of go rogue during plays and basically look for an INT instead of playing his man?

Who needs corners when you're scoring 50 points a game? (red font on that)

@wagon, that is generally the case with any db that gets a lot of interceptions. They are also burned from time to time. The guy that plays the given call rely on a bad throw or deflection to get an int. I think Shane is correct about Coach making a move. I am so ready for football. Our D will be a question mark. But when I look at our skill guys on O, we have plenty to work with.Posted On: Apr 12th 2020, 12:36 PM #394648
I have faith in Leavitt to scheme around the guys we have and as Shane said I definitely think Willie will get some guys before the Fall starts. The offense though is going to be insane with TJ, Chris, Bj, Malcolm and many others, Chris is an NFL caliber QB I think he takes another step next season. Cant wait for the season to finally start.
