I do not remember seeing him in the game at all.

The work continued after a weekend off for the Golden Eagles.

2 different forecasts with 2 different bowls and 2 different bowl opponents.

YOU WOULD EXPECT PEOPLE TO MANAGE THEIR HOUSE?

1. Team was ready to play on a short week. Incredible when this team has 71 Freshmen or Sophomore on it. This staff won 2 games in 11 days with a young team. Say what you will, that is impressive.

2. Offense moved the ball, but Hall went conservative in the 2nd half. With a defense like USM has that is understandable. However, they can't keep leaning on them. They will wear down.

3. O-Line played much better last night. Pass pro was good and Wilcke had time to throw the ball.

4. They didn't overuse the superback too much. They used it when needed and not on every down. It is much more effective that way.

5. The secondary is still giving up chunk plays. This defense is aggressive and that leads to one on one matchups in the secondary.

6. Special teams are a weapon and USM uses them well.

7. The Golden Eagles just need one more win to become bowl eligible. However, there is still much more to play for. A few things fall the Golden Eagle's way and who knows what may happen in this last part of the season.

Miami beat Virginia 14 to 12 in 4 OTs.

Women’s cross country wins first ever USM SBC championship in the event today. First of many to come.

ESPN2 prime time Thursday night game. What appeared to be a pretty raucous home crowd on tv (no I didn’t come up from the Coast, 3 and 1 year old boys, I don’t get out much), exceptionally raucous student section, putting one of our long time little brothers and homecoming victims in their place instead of getting beat by them unlike so many instances over the last decade, and doing a PRIDE era Wanderlei Silva head stomp (look it up, golden era Japanese MMA was fantastically violent) exclamation point on them when we had them down with a late defensive TD. Haven’t had too many moments like this post 2011. Maybe we’ll look back and consider this game the game we finally turned the corner. SMTTT

Here are a few stats and thoughts from Coach Ladner: (stats are only from double diget rebound or scorers)

Depth, size, shooting better, and more atheltic

Everyday attitude and approach is better

Starting 5
1. Alvarez, sprained ankle, holding hin out, not sure if he will be ready for exhibition

2. Hasse 12 p 6 r

3. Pinkney 23 p 8 r, scrimmage leading scorer

4. Crowley 15 p 5 r

5. Arnold, defense is outstanding

Bench:

D Harris, improved offense 9 p, 12r

Hart, 14 points 9 rebs in scrimmage

Perez, played well

Aguire, played well


Grafals, 13 p, 7 r


Mormon: Big Body gives depth inside

Ivory (Talent is off the charts,good basketball IQ) he has been great to coach so far. Ladner did say he has the talent to play professionally. This is his 4th school in as many years, if he continues like he has, he will be a difference maker.

Great group who truly like and playing for each other. They hang out away from basketball. Much different than in years past.
(CULTURE IS DIFFERENT)


Ladner is very encouraged about scrimmage.



Remember, this is an intersquad scrimmage so scoring for some will be high and not likely what they will be throughout the season. Still, it shows there are some guys who can put the ball in the basket.

I didn't see any but were there any recruits at the game last night.

He’s that good.

Southern Miss rose to the occasion in front of a national audience as they defeated Louisiana 39-24.

Big one tonight in The Rock. Hope everyone who can attend will be there and let's have some fun.

....to carve out a place in the NFL, he could be getting it. Jamar Chase is out for 4-6 weeks. Unless the Bengals swing a trade. He should see more playing time.

So we have done this 2 week in a row and the Eagles have won. I will say the Golden Eagles win 21-17

Is Boze ever going to get well? What about the tight-end situation? Caston? Gainer? Who else?
