We fielded ours in 1909 with a short hiatus due to World War I in 1913 to 1920. We have been through Division II, Division I-AA, and now Division I... The Trojans have worked very hard for many years to get where we are today, not just appearing into the Division I spotlight. We have THREE National Championship titles, yeah their from our early years but we have them and they are championships non the less. How many do you have? Our couch, Larry Blakeney, is just one of two coaches to ever take a football program from Division II to I-A! And lastly we have three Southland Football Titles and three Sunbelt Conference Titles. Just some facts about the Trojans.... Don't get me wrong I respect that you guys started up very fast and have become a force in the Belt ever since, but I think the Panthers will surpass the Owls as the dominate Florida team in the Belt very soon.
So basically your saying that FAU has accomplished almost HALF of what Troy has done in 100 years of football play in 8 Years? Damn you guys sure are slow.
FIU still sucks.
Also i wouldnt get started flaunting coachs around too much Troy fans. HS accomplishments BURY LB.
Kentucky:
All American Player
Alabama:
Coached with Bear Bryant during the "Golden" age of Bama.
(I think a few of you Alabamaians may of heard that name)
Directly responsible for recruiting Joe Namath to Bama.
Miami Dolphins
OC for Miami Dolphins during the 72 undefeated seasons and back to back SuperBowl victories
University of Miami:
Ressurected the program from the dead.
Coached UM to a National Championship
Responsible for setting up Miami to be TEAM of the DECADE in the 80's
Developed MANY all pro and NFL great quaterbacks at UM.
University of Lousiville:
ANOTHER program ressurection from the dead.
(They used to handout vill'e tickets free with a tank of gas fillup)
Florida Atlantic University
CREATED the program from NOTHING.
Quarterfinals of FCS championships after 3 years of play TOTAL.
Back to Back Bowl victories in only 4 years of FBS play.
On his way to developing the NEW quarterback U.
Total Bowl Record:
6-0 Best winning record of any coach to every coach a bowl game.
The man has more hardware for his fingers then he could ever hope to wear. LB is not really worthy to wash HS jockstrap at this time. I gurantee you WAY more people in college football know of HS then LB.
LB has done great things with Troy, no doubt. But to compare him to HS is just plain silly.
Did I mention that FIU Sucks?
