What would have happened if we played them, I still think we would have beaten them. I think Swac still that low and Our defense could have Little Prime trouble. just things that rattle thru my head
Is it just me or has anyone else noticed that in football and basketball that transfers via the portal are continuously being address with the name of the school they left? It seems proper to mention that once in a broadcast but this continued reflections on their place of origin seems to take a back seat to the fact they are now a Southern Miss guy. It just grates me when, for the 10th time in the game, that Crowley is referenced as an OM product. I got it the first time....the 10th is just overkill.
We now have three qbs committed for the 2023 team. They are Ethan Crawford, Austin Gonzales, and Holman Edwards. Two are freshmen to be (Crawford and Gonzales) and one (Edwards) is a portal transfer. With Lowe, Keyes, and Wilke with eligibility remaining I don’t see us devoting 6 scholarship to the qb room. I can’t help but feel like another shoe or two remains to drop but makes me curious.
...247 sports about the Ala-Ms all-star game practice sessions. Will James and Luke Rogers were singled out for their performances. Evidently, James has opened some eyes. Hope we can keep him.
Just spoke with Jeremy and he did say if the Golden Eagles make it to the Championship Game they would bid to host it. Would be great for the program!!
I feel like our athletic department overall finally has some positive momentum going for it. Baseball hosted a super regional, football is back in a bowl game, and basketball team is doing well. On top of it all we have a University President that is respected and knows the needs of the school. Feeling a little bit of hope as a USM fan, just can't help waiting for that TTT moment when it comes crashing back down.
Anyone else feel like the NCAA may be sitting back and letting this Portal / NIL stuff get out of control on purpose? A few more years like this and the colleges may come back to the NCAA on their hands and knees begging for some common-sense controls to be put in place and enforced.
Going to be fun to just sit back and watch all these guys entering the portal the next 3 days. Even more fun watching everyone trying to convince them where to go.
...I expect Alabama to make a splash in the QB portal. I didn't like the guy who backed up Young this year and behind him is Ty Simpson(son of our own Jason Simpson). I can't see Saban going into the year with that, unless Simpson is very good.
