I am not hypothesizing that Hawk is leaving or retiring any time soon. I do think that any conversation of the futures of he and Plough are intertwined and interrelated though, hence the discussion. You’re only as old as you feel, and it sure looks like coming back to Davis has been a revitalization for Hawk.

Sure, let’s become the next NDSU-esque FCS dynasty before he retires - I’m in!

Bingo. That is my biggest immediate concern.

Something to keep in mind, and I was mentioning this to a friend this morning, but, aside from the Gould-en Era, the HC position has been handed over to an in-house candidate and/or Aggie alum since 1970. That’s something to give considerable thought to given the forthcoming sports performance center, upward trend of the program, and guesstimating as to how long Hawk leads the program. When it does come time, at some point in the future, who knows when, for Hawk to retire, this program could be a well-oiled machine. Put all of this together with Plough’s quotes above.....

Yes - have to put up 6 every time in the red zone.

Wait...with that turf...I guess that means every drive. :lol:

“The campus here is amazing, you are in California and you have a top 10 education in the country,” Plough said. “This is one of the best public universities in the nation. You are basically getting an Ivy League education here with football. We have a great little niche in recruiting. If you are a great student and you can go to any school in the Big Sky, you should go to Davis. No slouch on any of the other schools but academically, we are going to be better than those other teams and if we can keep scoring some points and winning some games and being exciting, I feel like we can start getting those types of players that can help us win consistently in the conference.”

Shots fired, Flagstaff.

Doss dropped a TD on the first drive - 14 points now

Yes, and if there are updates as to how much has been raised or how much is left to reach the goal please post that as well.

We’re going to beat the proverbial drum to get you there. I’m hoping we’re doing the same this time next week to send you to off to Utah.

Let’s get them to Cheney!

The TV money would be astronomical if they expanded to 8 or 16 teams. Knowing the NCAA, it’s only a matter of time given that payday.

It felt like a two-score kind of game, which, ironically, is what it was after 3 quarters (35-20).

I read the list of bowl games without their locations, and, honestly, with the new sponsors I have no clue where half of them are.

Payback is a....

Welp, time for round 1 of the Big Sky Battle Royale. Let's get it.

Just got home from the game. What a nailbiter. Great game. Run D was exceptional. Pass D making critical PBUs and creating turnovers when needed. Need to button up the RZ offense - can't leave that many points on the board against a team like Eastern.

I want revenge.

Davis Sport Shop has the mother lode of lemon CA apparel. Just stopped in today.

Roger dodger, my eldest has been asking if it’s Saturday yet for the last 3 days. Funny - I’ve been doing the same. :lol:

Yes, good thing, because I just received notification from Amazon that the poncho I ordered for the 4-year old won’t arrive until Saturday now :lol:

Alright, I’ve seen enough of the alternating weather forecasts to be confident that we won’t see precipitation during the game itself. Pulling out the rain gear from the Causeway Downpour and buying a poncho for the little tyke.
