I love NSU and I'm going to show how much I love them by introducing them to "tough" love. I'm mailing my tickets back to the athletic administration office so they can donate them to the local Boys club this week. Until we figure this out, I'm checking out. I am way too busy anyway. I have to drive three hours to get to Natchitoches to watch us play. I don't demand much, but I expect us to at least compete. This is too much. Criticize me if you like, but our fans deserve more than this. This is beyond bad. If we were losing and competing hard in losing, that's fine. But, we've been outscored 35-3 since the beginning of the 2nd quarter. Boys, that's ALL coaching. UIW figured us out, made some adjustments and started kicking our butts. Congrats to them because they deserve it. Go figure, Rivers comes in and takes us down the field for a TD. I can't even figure us out anymore.

Just let Rivers play the rest of the year. What does it matter? Let the kid play. The season is done anyway.

Worse part of this all is the athletic department is going to lose a ton of money on this. Our attendance the rest of the way is going to be pretty bad.

Give the snaps to someone who can contribute down the road. Giving all the snaps to Rivers would be a total waste of live reps for Blumenthal or Almond.
I can't blame you purplestorm. Your loyalty can never be questioned and I think you have every right to do that.

It should be. That's how a democratic, free-market economy works. If the product is worth it, it flourishes. If it isn't, it loses business. An 0-11 or 1-10 season isn't so bad when it happens every decade or two. But, this is our second one of these in six years. Enough! We're the consumers and we should DEMAND better. There's only one way to get that message across. That good ol' boy bullsh*t is out of style in today's world. Win and/or compete or ... well, you know the rest. And I hate that because I like Jay. But ... as I just said, you know the rest.

It won't matter on snaps. We're two years away from being decent. Give the snaps to the guy who has shown his loyalty to "the game of football" the most. Let Rivers play. Heck, I might show up just to see if he can help us win one. For the record, I think Blumenthal is our guy for the future, however.

Our Offense didn't do too bad today but our D is absolutely horrible. No reason there shouldn't be changes to the D staff ASAP. Not saying anyone has to be fired, but we definitely need changes to the responsibility given too each coach. Quite obvious they can't handle the job at this point.
Would be one thing if we were losing hard fought games and showing signs of improvement but we are getting slaughtered by everyone and getting embarrassed on a weekly basis. Our players deserve better.

We gave up 500 yards of offense to UIW. Let that sink in for awhile. Yes, we'll live and this is just sports, but my goodness.

We'll still go to games, since we live in Natchitoches Parish, but I am ready for basketball season. Hope we put it together on the hardwood. Seat16, over and out!

Not a good start to athletics this year, period.
Football looking to have their 2nd worst or tie for worst season in football history. Our volleyball team, who competed in the NCAA tournament, is back to their old for pre-Hernesmans form. Soccer is 3-7 and has yet to win a conference game.
DAMN IT!!!!

Instead of driving from DFW to San Antonio to see the UIW debacle, I opted for the short drive over to TCU to cheer on the Longhorns against the Horned Frogs. Same result, but at least it was a short drive home!

Everyone is crushed over the loss of this game. Changing coaches every year for 4 years does not make team work. Putting 8 new players on Defense along with new DC....is not working. Pointing fingers does no good. Prayers for all of them to work...together. Football is a TEAM sport.
