RE: Matthews versus Withers
Rooting for Mickey... Withers should have an advantage with a full complement of "FBS" players. Coastal is probably not even up to 85 schollies yet, and a good portion of those were recruited when CCU was still FCS (and Big South at that). Yet CCU is an 8 point favorite. Shows how talented the Texas State Armadillos roster is!

MM will always have some purple running thru his veins - same can’t be said for Withers.

RE: Matthews versus Withers
Got to go with a defensive minded coach and no matter what Withers likes to preach, it "ain't" in his DNA. While EW took the Dukes in a new direction that we needed, Mickey, from '04 - '10 had us in a good place.

RE: Matthews versus Withers
MM and it shouldn't even be a question. Both were considered defensive minded coaches, but only one lived up to that moniker.
So many tend to look at his last years at JMU, but forget all the greatness he did for us. MM made JMU football relevant. National Championship. We beat Tech. App State home game. We have loads to thank Mickey for.
Withers gave us pretty uniforms.

I would love to know the reason someone would pick Withers over MM.

I believe we are sitting at like 68 on scholarship right now. Withers made a lot of heads roll when he arrived here. It will take a while to recover.

The ole Withers gameplan. Run a ton of players off, treat existing players like crap, claim you're young for 5 years and blame the results on that.

I'd be more concerned about the recruiting bridges he may be burning down along the way. He was doing it to us.. I cannot imagine the damage that could have been done if he was here longer. I remember an article of a school (poss Richmond area?) where the coach didn't feel good about JMU after Withers' and staff pulled an offer on one of his guys and new staff had to really mend those bridges. I cannot imagine that was just a singular issue.
