With that many early recruits defections were bound to happen. Brock's team had another back who was being heavily recruited. He got hurt and Brock totally blew up. The decommits are happening more and more. Last year Alabama had 8, BC had 4.

Exactly what kind of coach is going to take the UMass job if we fire Coach Bell after 1 year? This isn't Florida State where there's tradition, broad fan support and a huge budget. I'd also be willing to bet that there's a stronger talent base in the program at Florida State than Whipple left in Amh...

With the money the NCAA makes from college basketball, they should have staff adequate to investigate and rule on transfer requests. Of course that would cut into profits.

Really hope they have about half a dozen scholarships left that will go to bigger players on the DL and LB. A few massive experienced JUCO linemen "might' make a difference.

Most incredibly stupid thread on the board? That's an incredibly high, or is that low, standard.

Don't know whether the defense can't tackle, won't tackle or doesn't know how to tackle. Probably a combination of all three.

I'd much rather see Erin Calipari get the job.

My bold prediction: UMass covers.

I watched the first two games and like most everyone else was extremely disappointed in the results. That said, I'm not willing to write the Walt Bell era off after two games. He inherited a team that lost its top 2 QBs, its leading rusher, the first consensus All-American in a short FBS history and...

Can see why Miller never played at Penn State.

This team cannot close out a 1st Half to save their f'ing lives!

FWIW, 2020 verbal Cairo McCrory posted on Twitter that his vertical measured out at 44". Seemed to surprise even him.

I'll take the glass half full approach. This team is running totally new schemes with a real lack of talent left from the last regime. The loss of skill position players was extreme. Coach Bell signed some solid recruits in a very short period of time and the 2020 class to this point looks like the ...

It's easy to forget that we lost one of our two top players on defense, our top rusher, the two top QBs and the school's first consensus FBS All-American. We're also playing with less than a full complement of scholarship players. I'd be happy with a couple of wins as long as the product on the fiel...

Pretty comfortable with your wish list. Will add a few. 1. High level of effort every time out. Particularly play hard right to the end of the 1st half. 2. Have what seems to have been an excellent off season in strength and conditioning translate to the field. Critical for both the OL and DL. 3. Fi...
