Tanner Holmes Transferring

Ok. You beat an AAC team, but once again finish no where near the top of SBC bc your only decent players are hurt long term. What does that get him? A pass?

I don't think you guys understand subtlety.

Hudspeth was told to perform well against AAC programs, or else. It wasn't a suggestion, it was stone cold bottom line TOLD to him.

Can anyone get access to an official injury report from week 1 to week 2?

If the University Brass actually told him that, glad to hear there is some accountability about to take place.

His contract gets him a pass.

Yes, but if the staff really tried to force a kid to play injured, then he can be fired WITH CAUSE. Sad that it may come to that, but Dud really did it to himself.

Well, he lost to an AAC opponent this year and last year. Next opportunity is 2019 with Tulsa at home. Hopefully the opportunity doesn't present itself.

Maggs coming in hot! He isn't playing around. I watched him on the sidelines in the first half of our home opener against SLU. He had a bunch of people around him. None of them were talking to him because he was fired up. Ripped a wrist band off pretty demonstrably (in anger) after our defense allowed a touchdown. Next play, Calais took the kickoff to the house (2nd one) and he got pumped up and clearly said, "Now let's get some F___in' defense!

I've been told that this thread is getting attention from some members of the Holmes family. I do not wish to cause undue attention or harm to your family Ma'am/Sir. And I realize that you do not owe me, or this school anything at all. My intention was to bring to light the truth on what has happened between your son/brother/cousin/nephew/etc as it seems that losing players is becoming a common theme around here. As you know, Tanner was roommates with another player that left our program with little explanation, Cody Mitchell. A young man that I was very impressed by, was able to speak to and thought our future looked bright with guys like this choosing to be Ragin' Cajuns.

I know it's not ideal, but I would encourage you guys to speak to the people that are and will be asking questions about whats going on. If not for your sake, for ours. I came away very impressed when meeting Tanner the one time I was able to, and wish you all nothing but the best. Again, please consider getting your story out.

Thanks

Would make zero sense to push one of your top 11 defenders to play hurt and potentially jeopardize losing him the rest of the season. With the coaches on the hot seat, why would they shoot themselves in the foot by blackballing a top player on an already weak defense??

This is not a defense of the staff or anything. Just thinking out loud.

1 word EGO

I see that our next head coach will be a defensive one.

I hear Rob Ryan is looking for work!
