    Fisher is a SOLID 180. When i saw him at practice up close, he was really put together.

    On the radio broadcast (simulcast with an Under-9 boys soccer game), Scott Marsh was talking about how the emphasis on our collective and Team Aggie was feeding the players. This was the first year that we fed the players all 3 meals and a snack. They weighed everyone the first day of camp, and the end of camp.....every player at least maintained their weight! That's huge. We have to continue to financial support to feed them THROUGHOUT the season. Unlike many/most collectives, our group is putting their cash toward practical things like feeding the players and providing summer housing (apparently their aid runs out in July-August).

    Upgraded seating in the Champions Aggie section. Also, our bench will be opposite end of Jumbotron - means the visitors shoot free throws into the band in the second half. I’m guessing someone besides me made this suggestion to the AD, but I’m taking credit. Does mean I have to switch my seats to stay behind the home team bench.

    unfortunately, Caden was 4-14 after that hot start. He’ll get better - things seemed to speed up for him in the second half, and Mercer gets a lot of credit for that.

    I think you just echoed my thoughts.

    the INT? we blocked the following punt for a safety. That long TD run and our missed FG really hurt. Gave them life.

    Mercer seemed to adjust well defensively in the second half. Loaded up the box, lots of pressure, dared us to throw deep and emphasize stopping QB runs. We were running well early in the 3Q but that disappeared - a couple false starts out us behind the chains and put more pressure on Pinnack.

    is the Cal Expo plan for a single grandstand? That doesn’t seem enough if their goal is the largest concert venue in the Central Valley

    Probably don’t need to worry about lightning here for these neutral hames

    I think he’s referring to the stadium layout not location. That’s another horrible aspect to Viking stadium - the location.

    when I played, out games vs Northridge State were Devonshire Downs, an old horse track. One set of bleachers with a wide track between that and the field. Horrible lighting (maybe horses have better night vision than me). What a dump

    think back to the 49ers vs Raven Super Bowl with power outage. Almost got the Niners a big comeback win

    Pinnack looks tenative right now.

    1900. End zones were empty.

    Big crowd in Portland! Yikes

    I have a feeling we open the Pinnack era the way we did the Jake Maier era - long pass right out the gate.

    odds I see show us by either 3.5 or 4.5. Some of the analysts suggest either not betting on the game, or taking Mercer and points

    Somebody at our alumni zoom asked about Carrillo -> sounds like they think he could be back late, be able to play 4 games (like the TE last year) and then request a medical redshirt. They are concerned that could be turned down, thus burning the year. Sounds like something the compliance folk have to work out late in the year.

    i thought their olympic sports were heading to the Big West?
  • @ Mercer to Open 2025
    he mentioned a couple guys that were injured at the scrimmage and were out but i didn't get names (probably were nicknames that I'm not familiar with).

    I'll have to skip the viewing party on Saturday -> youth soccer kicks off saturday and the last (or 4) grandkid games starts at 4:00. I'll listen and then catch more of the game on TV while a bunch of them probably end up in our pool.
