This is excellent bulliten board material. You don't see Southern Miss as a good FBS team or La Tech either. You noobs really are fun to watch. You can believe this will be mentioned to some of the players that work out at the Payne Center at USM.

But are any of them actually able to read the bulletin board? 05-stirthepot


Haha! Your reply made me chuckle.

LOL. But seriously did anyone think USM and Marshall were good when we beat them last season? His OL gave upon Litton and that team was a mess. USM was a different story, noobie qb with loose hands and a lot of turn overs won't make USM a good team. My point still stands. We might be new to FBS and relatively new to College FB but we ain't noobs.

I know and then get blown out like WMU did last year. That's almost as bad as a Sunbelt champ like Ark State going to the access bowl, that would be ugly

We lost by 1 TD.

That's "blown out"?

ODU football is his baby. Bobby Wilder is ODU football. He has a 69% winning record (67-30) as a head coach, all at Old Dominion. If there is any football coach in C-USA who will not be enticed away following a strong record of success (which he already has), it's Bobby Wilder. Could he be pulled away? Sure, but it would most certainly take more to sway him to leave than it would any other coach in the conference.

I know. He's has never been offered a P5 so he doesn't know that. He was losing FBS coach before last year (FCS doesn't matter) and is not a recruiter like Wilson.

No Argument from this ODU fan. We are yet to beat a good FBS team let alone good P5 team.

Mediocre at best.

I don't know, the LTech coaches might be willing to try some of that "high school" stuff to avoid a "3-peat" of losing to USM this season :)

Thanks for the vote of confidence, but I doubt it. Coach Wilson will likely be gone before we reach our full potential under him, along with the terrific coaches he has surrounded himself with.

We all have to deal with that situation anytime we string together a few successful seasons in a row, but you're right, if UTSA has a good season this year, Wilson's name will be mentioned in some of the coaching searches that'll be going on at the end of the season. It's a shame that it's this way now. It makes it very hard to maintain momentum. USM showed just how horribly a bad coaching hire can affect a program.

Interestingly, that very well may not be true for Old Dominion. Not only are the Monarchs going into their ninth season of football, they are doing it with the only head coach they have ever known. Bobby Wilder was hired in 2007 when the decision was made to bring football (back) to ODU. He started recruiting in 2008, and the team played it's first game in 2009.

Sure, but it would most certainly take more to sway him to leave than it would any other coach in the conference.

Bobby Wilder is 53 and makes $650K, I also wouldn't agree that he has a "strong record of success" already, not at the FBS level anyhow, prior to 2016 he was 11-13 at the FBS level.

If you guys win the division this year, let alone the conference, there's a good chance he's gone after this year.

You wanna talk about a guy who I think is less likely to go anywhere? Rick Stockstill is 59, has been at Middle a year longer, makes more money, is under contract till 2024, and while MT football may not be his "baby", his actual son is the starting quarterback and Rick will turn 61 before the end of Brent's senior season.

Now this may boil down to it simply being less likely for another team to hire Rick at at least 61 after spending at least 13 seasons at Middle.

I think the last real chance for CRS to get hired away would be us winning ~25 games over the next two seasons and riding that success to another job.

If we see Stock on the MT sideline in 2019, I think he's there until he retires or is fired.

All this means for wither of you, is that eventually they will start to slip and it will be very difficult (and ugly) to fire them.

Statements like that are hilarious when some schools think they are immune.

Wilder has never been offered a P5 so he doesn't know that. He was losing FBS coach before last year (FCS doesn't matter) and is not a recruiter like Wilson. I haven't seen Wilder name even mentioned for AAC jobs.

Wilders name was mentioned for Temple and he met with them for at the very least casual discussions about the job.

Lets just say ODU fans are happy to have him. He's done a fantastic job and we hope he stays. Saying things like FCS doesn't matter is really dumb when some coaches get FBS jobs because of it.

The rhetoric and tone people talk about WMU from 2016 is astounding. WMU beat NW, and Illinois... yeah whatever, but GoSo was supposed to be a great G5 team last year and they ended up sucking. So for playing 2 BIG teams on the road plus another supposed good G5, and their schedule is trashed? Eek, thats a tough crowd! They also defeated 9 win Toledo and Ohio, and lost by a TD to 11 win Wisconsin. I think they belonged there.

The other options were 4 loss Temple, 3 loss WKU, 3 loss SDSU or 3 loss App State???

NFL.com talking Steelers vs Pats

USM's got their own problems. Tech's just not one of 'em. But USM did have some embarrassing, inexplicable losses last year, just like Tech did to USM.

I am a Southern Miss fan and I did not think that was a good Southern Miss team last year, especially at the point in the season when ODU beat the Golden Eagles. The team was atrocious during that stretch. There was a lot of bad football from the 2nd half of the Rice game (game 5) thru the North TX game (gmae 11).
