Any nuggets on the Coach's Lunch press conference today? Had to be on another webinar.

- Jahee Jackson back in there at backup RG

Guess Gray needed to pull the trigger on the marriage proposal while he still was the starting PK!
In all seriousness though, is there another program out there in FCSland that has two really solid kickers like we do?

We have to be ready to play if we expect to come out of Towson with a win because Flacco is too good to not bring your A game against. He admitted the D needs to play better.

My personal summary. Not an exact quote.

We are gonna smoke Towson. Book it.

Did anybody else watch Gray on his extra points hitting the bottom of the scoreboard consistently in the exact same spot?

He gets so much height on his kicks and I believe he has the distance from ~55 yards.

Similar to golf...try to swing hard and hit it far... and the ball doesnt go as far than free swing....kickers line up for a 50 yarder, get tense and feel like they need to kick it harder and further...natural tendency that it hard to overcome...

Give the trombones the football..... the number of times it landed in the alumni band was amazing.

That’s probably how many people at the start of the fourth quarter at bfs.
Which is equally as and at the same time.

6800 is probably higher than the CAA average with JMU removed.

The JMU 1K sells out and then I go to look at their ticket site and almost every section in their stadium is 100% unsold. You can have your pick of midfield seats if you want.

Was hoping Towson let out for the whole week of Thanksgiving but they don’t let out until Wednesday.

So we know we have at least 1k making the trip. I’m sure there are others like my friends and I that purposely bought from Towson/third party to steal their seats. Think we can get 1500-2000 there?

Let’s say they have an above average attendance day due to the hype and it lands around 8000. Capacity is ~11k. Sure would be nice to have 20-25% of their stands. It won’t be enough to force any false starts but it would be plenty to let our boys know we are behind them!

I and others I know are buying tickets on Saturday so I would expect us to have a lot more than 1000.

I don't understand why Wayne Davis wasn't moved to the outside opposite Moreland as a corner after Robinson was lost for the season. Carroll/McCormick don't look like Division I players and Tutt is a shadow of himself just like Cardon Johnson. And Davis hasnt been that good as a linebacker anyway. Makes no sense.

I thought Tutt looked really good this past week. I think it's just taken him a while to get his feet back under him. I expect he's likely our starting CB opposite JFM for remainder of year.

Is Tutt’s limp a mental hurdle overcoming his injury? He looks like a wounded puppy in between plays and makes me wonder why QB’s don’t pick on him every single pass.
Maybe he is putting on an Oscar Show trying to bait brows his way? Most teams have picked on CB2 all year as a definite weak spot on the team.

Carroll, McCormick, Oliver, and Tutt have all been a rotating mess at QB. If Tutt continues to heal and can claim the starting CB spot, then JMU has a significantly better pass defense than it’s already strong pass defense.

We need King Tutt to find his mojo

The way we scream and yell? Stomp?

Yea, I think we could make some noise.



Bad news on the family front today, may have four to just giveaway to students or others who’er’ll root.

I’ll make another thread depending... not good. Not..... good.

JMUDunk I’m sorry to hear about the bad news. I hope it’s nothing serious and you can use the tickets. If you do need to give them up my family could use them. We are a family of three and would make the trip and root! My 6 year old son was begging to go but with the holidays approaching we didn’t have the money to go. Just keep us in mind if you can’t use them. Thanks!

I think I’ll go with a score prediction of 34-31, Dukes win in dramatic fashion on a game winning drive which ends in a last second field goal and we get the #6 seed.
