  1. Default Re: Is this really the guy?

    No one should listen to "That Guy" until "The Guy" has an opportunity to "Guide" "His Guys" for a couple of years.

    Actually we're pretty close to being an FCS team. FCS has 65 scholarship players. Napier has given five scholarships to players (that we know of...could be more). That has gotten us to about 75 schollys. As far as players who were recruited to be on scholarship is concerned, we are definitely at FCS numbers.

    You are at FCS numbers but you don't really think the talent we have is FCS talent do you?

    Did our coach not do that last night?

    I didn't say that. There are plenty of FCS schools with FBS talent and vice versa. The biggest difference between the two divisions is the 20 extra scholarships. In that regard, we are pretty much FCS right now.

    Idiot post. Hud's recruiting was in the bottom 20% of FBS his last 3 years. It'll take a solid couple years to fix. Our best DL last night (#17) is a Napier recruit.....poor recruiting evident in our defensive front 7 et OL. What we saw in the trenches was predictable.

    Offensively, I saw a good game plan. First 3 4th downs was great play calling, our players didnt execute.

    The way I see it is we are FBS on offense and FCS on defense. We have 18-20 players we can trust on offense. We have about 6-8 on defense.

    I admire the funny sarcasm. But seeing the terrible condition his bad recruiting left us in, it’s not as funny this morning.

    It's only been 2 games...I don't see how judgement can decided on 2 data points. They played a goat, then played a very tough team.

    I support Billy Napier. I am more confident in him and staff after the game plan last night. If you’re bailing at this point, you’re an idiot, and we don’t need you.

    Also, if you don’t want and expect to win every time we step on the field, you’re a suck arse fan. Save the “realist” lecture. We are all adults here; learn to compartmentalize. UCF didn’t go 13-0 by hoping to just compete with P5. No, they expect to win and so should we.

    Get your fair weather asses to the field on Saturday. This is a process.

    I can’t wait to see your Alabama score prediction. Sorry about you gambling losses. I liked the over and fornus to cover, but lacked the conviction to bet it. I expect Vegas to put some huge over numbers on us moving forward.

    Btw, most of us here want to win against Alabama but expect to get thoroughly embarrassed. What kind of fans are we?
