What are all of these 3-4 star guys going to do when it hits they are playing in the FCS for likely their entire time in Sacramento?

This whole thing looks like its not going to end well.....

This is what I would sound like if I did a 2025 Preview and Schedule Prediction for the Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns or (any other team I know nothing about)......

No lie though.....7-5 isn't crazy.

Sounds about right!

Fascinating....the difference in management styles between the UCD and Sac State Athletic Departments.

The bluster and hubris has made for some great entertainment.

I'd guess the Cal AD makes 3x what the Davis AD makes....

As far as daily participation AST is near the top of the BSC, right up there with UM and MSU. A ways behind egriz as far as number of active posters. After UM, MSU and UCD....its a huge drop-off. Lately Sac has closed some of the gap.
AST is by far the most civil forum I've experienced, though.

Admin. has been 99.9% hands-off......we hope it remains this way. And I'm sure it will.

$55billion secured

I also said people don't read......which looks like the case (myself included...I didn't read all of it. :lol: )

We didn't do a great job advertising the UCD / Tahoe research connection. People aren't getting it.....lots of "Davis is 3 hours away" comments. People also don't read, so.....

Now this is good reading.......:clap:

LOL
Wood and Marion arguing with people on X is such a terrible look.
These guys look SO unstable and delusional.

Just let your actions do the talking and get the heck off X.....

To be fair though, the current starting QB is 39 years old (and a future CFL hall of famer, it looks like). Jake may be seen as a replacement when he retires in a season or two? QB3 is some 4th year scrub from Penn State….he's never started a game and coincidentally backed up Jake in Calgary.

Maybe whoever made the graphic confused him with Porter (?)

If Nava gets another year, then Mirabella would be next up as the non-returner (?)....
San Diego State:
2020 redshirt
2021 2 games
2022 12 games
2023 12 games
UCD:
2024 14 games


Was 2020 a "covid" year for him...and the 2 game season doesn't count? So he has one year left??

I can't keep up!

I could have sworn Nava was done after last season......is he trying for another year of eligibility in one of those lawsuits? His freshman year was at a JC, then 3 years at UCD.
If I'd have to guess, I'd say Nava is the non-returner.

So excited about life and the future. Love to see it!

You are yelling at the wind at this point. Nobody on this board is satisfied with mediocracy or stagnation.
Don't hold your breath if you want the Davis athletics department to blow up the football program and make a bunch of ridiculous hires and replace entire rosters to mirror the "success" (lol) of Sac State. I'm really not sure what you are expecting here..... What do you actually want to happen?

Rocko has put Davis in a great position to move to the FBS when we have the $, and basically when we want to. This is smart, not desperate. I'm sure Sac doesn't want to be in the position they are in...I'm sure they'd have loved Taylor (who knows if he'd have kept himself out of trouble by this point) to still be around and building for an FBS move at their leisure.

I'm not saying things are perfect, but I'd guess a good majority on this board believe the AD is making positive progress- especially with the recent success of the football program. There are many Universities ADs would love a staff like Plough has going right now. This is what Sac is flailing at trying to achieve right now...


With all this said, I do think some things need to be added to the men's basketball program, and quickly. That program is stagnant.

Sac State is acting in reckless desperation.

We are not going to start behaving like Sac State. Go grab your Sac season tickets, there are plenty available! They'd love to bring you aboard.
Stop with the D2 talk, its getting annoying.

The fact is, Davis is on an upward trajectory and doing all the right things.

The CA Tahoe logo is pretty cool though. I'd buy a t-shirt, or tank for summer....

But we'll never see anything like this in the bookstores based on previous history......

Well, this is interesting.....
