Sorry, but the scholarships disparity is simply not fair. Don’t get me wrong, no excuse at all for the loss. I thought the whole FBS/FBS decision by the NCAA was to try and lower costs but at the same time give parity to each subdivision within itself. Maybe COVID just screwed it all up.

River, was there a reason given for the scholarship decision? Did any BS team do the same?

But our biggest need is at quarterback. I wonder if HR will even return given the severity of his injury. Maybe TT will develop as a passer. I wonder if we don’t need to go out on the market for a transfer QB? Our other holes will be filled out OK IMHO.

I will let this rest for awhile. Maybe not as bad as it might seem for the future. Who the hell knows?

Above all, it is just a game. Do not let our kids get hurt or damaged in the great game of football. I Will gladly accept a loss to avoid that. I know all of you agree. Hawkins knows this as well. And I love him for this.

I really just hope that HRs concussion has healed. The view of his dad holding him after the hit just touched my heart. We all have kids and we can all relate to that picture. Could be ours???

Hunter Rodrigues. As to HR’s performance post concussion injury, I think it has been somewhat ignored or devalued because we will never actually know the severity of the injury. Concussions are a big deal in sports as we all know, but very different for a quarterback who has to basically run the team and make split second decisions on the field unlike most of the other positions. My opinion is that they brought him back too soon and that was the cause of the sudden onset of interceptions not his loss of athletic ability that lessened his performance on the field. With a total and complete recovery I think he is still our go to quarterback IMHO.

But with a med school sports department in house?

I agree, but the ever optimistic me says the Edwards Athletic Performance center will lead to significantly better recruiting. There is simply nothing else like it in all the FCS.

I hope Hawk and Cody have a friendly Thanksgiving. Family businesses, which Hawk has chosen to do with the Aggies, are never easy in bad times and especially in the holidays. Trust me I know all too well. Feel bad for Mrs. Hawk as she tries to cook the turkey. Hats of to Sac. Better team, no question. We will come back from this better.
.

HR going out early was something the coaches never saw coming. And they’re not at fault for that at all. He was badly injured and it is a credit to the program that they didn’t force him back in. Sac seems to have the 2QB thing going. I think we can too.

Things wil be better gen is no dummy.

If we don’t change something we will lose this game. Doe the Hawk have the ability to do this?

Exactly!

Probably the saddest thing coming out of all this is what will happen to the players and Vaughn? The players just leave MBB off their resumes, but what does Vaughn do? Who will give the guy a decent job? I guess you have to say he brought it on himself, but wow, still so sad. I always heard he was a straight up good guy. Still surprised there wasn’t more media coverage on this whole episode. We probably lucked out on that.

Ag need to throw out the old game plan and come up with something new. I frankly do not know if Cody can do this or not. I hate to harp on this Again but LL and TT are basically all we have in the tank at this point, so why not utilize them as much as is possible. I know LL is playing hurt but the kid is still very dangerous as is TT.

Obviously the offense is not working as it should. We have known that since Idaho State. TT brings life to it IMHO. If something is broken try and fix it as it will not fix itself.

OK, I am pissed at the Pavillion. It took over all of our IM fields in the 70s. Is that an appropriate comment?

When are these coaches going to understand that TT is the only offensive threat we have? OK so he isn’t the pin point passer, but he delivers another threat that HR and MH just do not have. Put him in and let himGO! IMHO

Hey, the Brits love this stuff! We’re right up there with Harry and Megan. Am somewhat surprised this hasn’t hit the National media yet (that I am aware of). Really bad stuff indeed. May need s to come out with a public statement about the future here and settle the ICA dept down a bit. Part of me still feels last AD left in part due to this report. Never will know.
