it is easy to get into a negitive Fitch when things go down hill. I fell into that when Hop was hired and put me into the "I told you so" roll but on the brite side.
1 I really like our freshman QB. He is a good one and Hop reeled him in. Good job coach.
2 if you really watched USM last year you knew we did not have an FBS MLB beyond our SR starter. I think CJ is a young man of the highest charter and a good leader but he struggles physically to play at this level. I think the staff now understands the need and will fix it wit JC or a fifth year guy.
3. I think the SWAC coaches now know there is a really big jump from lower end FCS to lower end FBS.
4. He has not said it but I think Hop knows he can't fill recruiting classes with "USM type players". You cannot be average HT. And below average WT across the front. You need at least 2 of three measurable We have to get bigger.
5. Hop is a really good guy. Shannon is a good OC. TP you have been taken to school/wood shed and you are not ready for prime time. Hop is a defensive guy hopefully he take over the lead role. Hop was never an elite FBS DC but he is good enough for CUSA.
6. We thought next year would be a down year but if Hop uses the 6 spots he has left to fill holes we could win 7 games next year. Hopefully some of the FCS level recruits they have committed now will go somewhere else or will not qualify and we can get some bigger guys.

You make good and points. My biggest concern is that we seemed to have peaked at the UTEP game. Injuries and bad breaks happen to every team.
But when we seem to get worse in the basic fundamentals. Teams should progress, not regress, during the season.
I would be in Denton for the game had I not broken my hip. That was in May and I am starting ot use a cane more and more. The fracture is completely healed. Rehab is going well, so thankful
