Like wise, did not want to start a new thread, but when do you start individual game threads. Pretty excited about your visit to campus. Lots of info and been enjoying my season package. Your game #3 (Game #2 @home) in less than 4 weeks.

Steve,

Why does that one ticket say "Southern Georgia", vice "Georgia Southern"?

Scrimmage was held today BL and DA wore red jerseys and couldn't take hits while Hoy and Williams we're allowed to be hit wearing regular jerseys.

Ed Miller tweeted at some point that it was ppd, but that was all that I saw.

It sounds like Larussa has separated himself from the three other quarterbacks. BW stated to media today that Larussa is playing at s high rate of efficiency during practice. Hoy was sack more than 4 times today.

The QB battle is sure interesting. Looks like LaRusa has the inside track but no sure thing.

"A 21-yard TD throw from freshman QB Steven Williams to Gemonta Jackson. Williams also threw a couple of deep balls that were right on the mark, but dropped."

I like that.

For the out of town folks

It was correct everywhere else, tickets, wallet schedules and key rings one, etc. But ya, it's incorrect on the parking pass.

Hopefully Hoy gets better. Its a bit of a bummer to see him rated lower than LaRusa and Arnold. I figured he would most likely be our starter this year when he signed. Im pretty nervous about our starting QB being an undersized walk-on, but the kid sure has heart. I'm trying to reserve judgement until we see him in a game or two. If LaRusa leads us to victory over Albany and UMass I'll be impressed.

Russell Wilson and Archie Manning are undersized.

The kid seems to be earning his stripes and the coaching staff seems to have confidence in him. You seem to have an interesting way of reserving judgment.

This year, ODU can compete for a Conference USA Championship. I can only speak for myself in saying that I don't believe BL gets us to that goal. I could be wrong (I hope I am), and I am not going to question this staff. They have pushed all of the right buttons since starting this program.

I am very, very impressed with Williams. But, a 17 year old starting QB would be asking a lot.

I don't know.l Maybe it's just me, but it's hard for me to see how you can state that you don't believe LaRussa can get us to a conference championship, and at the same time say you are not going to question this staff (that has LaRussa as the No. 1 QB). It seems to me that by the very nature of your first statement, you are doing exactly that.

It was a guess, man. A guess that he will not be able to lead us there. If you can't figure out the difference between guessing at something and complaining about what the coaching staff does....well, you haven't done much reading on these boards.

Exceptions. What is the value in pointing out exceptions? For every exception I'm guessing there are a couple thousand examples of undersized kids not making it.
