If we want to get the ball rolling before conference, we got to play better these next 4 games.
V. Philander Smith
@ Jacksonville St.
V. UCA
@ Arkansas St.
If we go 3-1 with a road loss, that would be a good way to have some momentum before hitting conference play. 4-0 is unlikely and I would be shocked.
However, if we somehow lose to Philander Smith, Walker ought to be fired tomorrow.

Agree with all you say. I would be thrilled if we go 3-1 with wins against UCA and ASU. Doubt we win at Jacksonville State, but they are clearly on our level. 2-2 seems most likely, although beating UCA is far from a given. I do consider Philander a given, but we did struggle with them last time. Considering our W-L record, we should take no one lightly and need to come out and pound Philander by, at least, 20 points.
Step one accomplished. We blew out an NAIA team, which any decent DI team should do. Step 2, beating a comparable mid-major (Jacksonville State), on the road, will be much more difficult. I want to see solid evidence of "growth" in this team, but that may have to wait until we play UCA at home.
