I had someone ask me what was happening at NSU. Their words, "Losing is one thing, but losing by almost 30 to a SWAC team is another."

My best guess?

Stoker was 7-5 and had 19 Seniors returning. They would have likely done very well the next season. Possibly a playoff run. The powers that be didn't like that Scott wouldn't bow at their feet. He just wanted to coach football and be left alone. So, they fired him and bought into the Peveto Promise. Now look at us 15 years later. We haven't had a winning season. Coach Thomas came close one year at 6-6. The rest have been very subpar.

The point that reality check made is spot on. In the past 15 years, outside of Thomas beating LaTech, what have we done? Not a thing. Stoker had success at Sam Houston and even got some FBS love at UTEP. I will continue to say, we should have stuck it out with Stoker.

Hindsight, we still have a season that carries on. USM should have their way with us before we step into conference play. Lamar and Nicholls will be benchmarks for where we are in conference. If those games are lost, we could run into a season of "0". This is really the season to beat those teams. Meanwhile, UIW is on another level.

Looks like we're going 0-fer this season. Are there high school teams that could beat them?

West Virginia fans want Neil Brown fired. He was phenomenal at Troy.
