I am doubling down..UMass wins the Mac in 2027..ok maybe give it til 2028

no question in my mind that the team is better than last year. Get past CConn on sunday and then let's see how they do in the tourny.

Based on the podcast yesterday i doubt H gets canned, but massive changes need to happen on staff and training staff (how can this many guys get hurt?).

Alternatively, the way to go for me on new coach would be to look for successful FCS head coach who is offensive minded and have him bring his ...

OL even plays defense in a way. Control the clock and keep a marginal D off the field (not that we ...

From the ashes a great Phoenix will rise....

Me too, 11/10. Torn meniscus. Hopefully not bad
You getting replacement?


also torn meniscus..probably not a good idea for a 57 year old running around trying to play ...

How long were you a STH?

30 yrs is a nice run!

Good luck with your surgery. I’m currently laying in a hospital bed after having ...
