re: Did Navy Get Injured

Cincy and Navy were AAC mates before Big XII expansion. I don't think they are that different from each other on the pecking order.

Navy is not a bullshite midmajor.

I will forever have a grudge against my university for laying an egg yesterday. The damage will take a decade to heal.
As a firm proponent of tournament expansion, I will admit that seeds 7, 8, 9, and 10 don't look like sides that can shock a top 4 seed.

The field in general wasn't all that deep this year.

Miami with a whopping 5 passing yards in the first quarter.

Aggie haven't made them pay for it.

Just get Mack. Our last two “small conference winners” we hired fricking cooked here at Tulane.

Don’t change the recipe. You’re the middle stop on the way to the promised land.
He doesn’t want Tulane to be cheap. It’s smart, too - if they frick around then he can make LSU D great next year and see what opens up in the next window.
JMU cares about football and Napier knows the Sun Belt like the back of his hand. A+ hire, and the type of one that keeps them winning.
The fans - who don’t make this decision - will riot if it’s Napier. Things might actually get nasty.

I hope the boosters win out here. They are the ones paying NIL.
Rumor has it that Tulane is waiting until after the CCG to announce a HC to avoid distractions.

Somehow we have 16 strong 3-star prospects signed despite all of this. The cupboard isn't bare. Do recruits know something we don't?

Tulane is notoriously good at deploying a "cone of silence".
A lot of professors would get in hot water for failing a star player and holding them out of a key game.
Tulane/USF/Memphis/Boise/UNLV are at the "playoffs or bust" point right now.

It's not just power programs thinking like this. Tulane went 9-5 last year and the feeling was "mehhh".

That's WR4 and key returner down.

Time for a new DC in Washington.

You need to blitz. Dallas has two WR1s. You're not going to win those matchups.

Lattimore is burned. Again.

That was McNichols!

Also, 10/10 response. Brady says "we scored too fast" - which is probably right but oh well.
Comical DPI miss.

Dallas are being sloppy now.

A TD here before half and the Commanders aren't in that bad of shape considering how shite this half has been.

The offense is going to be a monster when Deebo and Terry get back. That oline is going to be a force now that Cosmi is back.


Bill is getting met in the backfield half of the time when they run the ball. This is against a BAD run defense, too.

The cap space is actually a god send since there are a lot of holes.

I don't know. Paying Terry for him to get injured is really crippling the team. Perhaps injuries are making this look worse than it is.

Commanders may need to blow it up.

The entire roster is really, really bad. Losing nearly everyone 1-on-1 with Dallas.

Why are so many schools firing a coach midseason?

Normally the coaches you want to hire aren't available until January.
Sumrall's Tulane is/recently was bottom 5 in penalties committed.

He's doing well at Tulane, but his teams are sloppy and inefficient. You get away with that in the American, but NOT in the SEC.
