1. I hope Matt stays and finishes his career at JMU. I hope we see him in the new arena, with the new head coach, and one helluva standing O on Senior Night.

2. If he leaves, good luck to him. Losing 4 of 5 starters will be tough for any program. But, we knew this was a legit reality that could take place when firing Rowe. Here's the other "reality" though...that is, when you go 2-16 and bail in the first game of the Keener-Rowe Invitational, the new staff can and probably will do better with or without you. Sorry to be so blunt, but it is what it is.

No doubt the new staff can do
Better but that doesn’t mean that they can’t don’t even better with Lewis on the team. Let’s not confuse the two. I’d like to see what Lewis could do with better coaching as a Senior perhaps at PG.
