We've taken 11 more Free Throws, meh.

Welp. Anyways Fire Bamford.
We went 11 for 21, they went 8 for 14. Can’t blame the refs today
Agreed- had to be way better from 3 today.

Re: Game 32, 2025-26: Miami (MAC Quarters, 3/12)


Wow! What a game. There was no doubt that we can play with any of the MAC teams,but we usually error at the end. This Miami team plays so smart and its hard to beat such a team that has a feel for how a game is best played. Who and when do we play tomorrow?


We play the winner of Toledo vs ...

Re: Game 16, 2025-26: at Ohio (1/6)



Of course Ohio is shooting lights out. They look really good. It is already out of hand. Wow.


I thought word was Ohio couldn’t shoot the 3 ? Guess what, they shot 50% in first half.


Honestly wild, they have been shooting 28.9% this season before this, 4th from last in the country ...

Re: Head Coach Search 2024


Add this to the list of Bamford's failings -

Even if you catch lightning in a bottle and hire a great head coach (first HC; then JMU), you, programmatically, have to start planning for when they would leave, and thusly to keep the pipeline going.

Re: 2026 Season



What FBS team has ever gone from winless to undefeated and in what time frame has it happened?



UCF went 0-12 in 2015 and then in 2017 went 12-0 regular season and 13-0 overall with a bowl win.
Longer distance between and tougher conference but University of Washington went 0-12 in 2008 and ...

Bowling Green scored more points in the first half than Umass did in an entire game this year.

Can't believe I made it here for this one. No students in sight. I get they're home for Thanksgiving but many are from MA. Someday I dream of this place rocking for MACtion. Someday I dream this is the place students and alumni want to be for football games. Let's go UMass.

Re: Coach Joe Harasymiak


He would not come.


Is he holding out for another better HC job, not having to pay a buyout? Or are we just that much of a dumpster fire that he doesn't want to hurt his reputation after the just over .500 run he had at WVU?
I can't say I blame him for just taking the texas special assistant ...

Does the school have enough money to pay the buyout? Might be stuck with him even if no improvement.

Idaho should move back up and go to the Mountain West; bet they would take 'em now that they have had to restock the Pac-12


I think Idaho faces more obstacles than us- there's no major airport that close to them, so it's hard for teams to travel there. I read on reddit that this was part of ...

Re: 2025 Season


Is it really the coaching and AD or the absolute inability to land players that are capable. Again why would a player come to Umass over a Midwestern or Southern school and i dont mean the power conferences. College Football in the Northeast has had no consistency in several years.
