I think we should wait till the last second to announce just to screw all you over

Yeah, your AD is not that stupid. He's smart enough to know that all our schools would have to do is fax all the teams on your schedule a nice long scouting report on you guys.

Then there comes that one time MTSU needs to schedule someone out of league play, and we say no.

You never screw someone over with conference realignment the way it is. It is dangerous.

Man. Your hypocrisy seems a little rampant, no?

Your the one who told us to GTFO so why not do as much damage we can on the way out?

Its like this....In your job would you give at least a 2 weeks notice or whatever the rule is in your job when you quit or would you just go to your boss and say I quit!?

Go right ahead and burn that bridge MTSU and FAU...theres no coming back.

I dont care if we get out early or not.

For FAU this move was sealed when FIU jumped.

I bear no ill will to the SBC. It was a good home for FAU. If both confrences and schools can work out ot leave early and no one is hurt then its probably for the best.

We're not paying a million. It's being negotiated.

Can't believe as close as you all pay attention to this stuff that you still haven't figured this out yet.

It depends, if I was offered a better job and accepted it but as soon as my co-workers found out about it they said it wasn't a good move and my boss turned his back on me then no I would not give two weeks I would give two fingers, walk out the door, and never ask them for a reference or give two ***** about them.

Many things can come back to haunt you later in sports. That's why sportsmanship was developed.

Then whatever it is you do must be MUCH different from what I do...I work in Healthcare a Radiologic Tech...If I found a better higher paying job you best believe Ill leave on good terms from my old job because you never know if you ever need to come back to it down the road.

**** happens in this economy. And the same can be said of College football.

You must work in an awesome job then...I work in education, you pull that stunt in education, and you better hope you keep that job for a long time, because your old boss will personally call every person they know in the field to tell them what you did to them.

Only real issue I see is that if Georgia State and Texas State come in and both struggle mightily, it could really make the league top heavy.

Yeah I wouldn't count on Texas State struggling next year.

Yes, but no one knows you better than your conference opponents. There was tallk after the ASU/MTSU game this year that some of our senior defensive starters had seen MTSU so much in their careers that they knew some of the offensive plays before the team could snap the ball.

Conference teams know your tendencies, and also know all the little things about your players that a simple scouting report doesnt tell.

Hell, we only call about four plays. Anybody can figure that out

(01-13-2013 08:46 PM)Blue Raider Dave Wrote:  Hell, we only call about four plays. Anybody can figure that out

run left, run middle, run right, screen pass?

Did you mention screen pass? Just want to make sure we include the screen pass. I think we might use it more than any team in the nation

Depends.

Bubble Screen seemed to be Joker Phillips' go-to play, so you might trail UK in that regard.

Somebody broke Malzahn of the incessant bubble screens fairly early on.

It is just so frustrating seeing so many screens. I feel like it is only effective when it is a surprise and the D over pursues the QB. If you run it 1000 times a game the surprise factor goes out the window.
