AJ Graham is a big disappointment, all world talent that was smoked away(Pun intended). If he took football and leadership as serious as Cato did, we would be looking at Cato starting his first season this year

What a dumb*** you are. Mark Cann left the team after Snyder took the starting job and gave it to Brian Anderson and then promptly put Cann 4th on the depth chart.

BTW just to let you know, Cann has a degree from Marshall and played baseball at Marshall for 2 years.

Not all of the losing from 05-09 was Snyder's fault, most of it had to do with the 30 scholarship reduction. But this was one of Snyder's mistakes.

Also you should keep your mouth shut. The more you open it and post the more awful you look and the more Blew and Yeller comes out of your mouth.

Hey Dumb ass Mark Cann was still around when Doc took over. And Mark Cann was shell shocked after starting for 1 year and had no interest starting again

Another word of advice is don't argue with flyhawk about defensive alignments concerning CB position. He played it at the college level and was very successful.

Wow... nothing like a little Herd Family name calling... One has to wonder if there had been Social Media boards back in the days of the Hatfield's and McCoy's maybe there would have been less bloodshed..

Nope. Probably just less Hatfields and McCoys. Tone and body language can't be conveyed over message boards very well. A lot of mild disagreements to all out wars start here over that little fact. Someone says something hateful in front of you and you can see they are kidding with you by their countenance. You read the same statement and don't know the person well and it will be taken only one way.

Good point!

In all honesty, I believe we will be better on both sides of the ball in 2015 than in 2014. Does that mean we will win the east, not necessarily. Last year most of the really tough games were in Huntington, not so this year.
Games at WKU, FAU and MTSU will be tough, for sure.

General rule about reading a text message or a forum, or email, is that the "tone" of the message will take on the emotional state of the reader when reading it. For instance, reading a message as simple as
"I don't trust you to drive us to lunch, i have seen your driving before" can mean 2 completely different things, one being a fun hearted sarcastic joke, and the other being a critical butt hole type of statement.... all depending on the mood of the recipient. As stated above, much easier when that takes place in person, more than half of communication occurs via body language

Grahm didn't make a splash at UPike because he was stoned the whole time he was there. I saw him throw a bunch of beautiful passes at Marshall, albeit in practice. He played very well in limited game action, just an unfortunate injury against USM.

He made some really nice throws against Houston. However like you and others have pointed out he valued getting high over football.

I never felt they were mutually exclusive. Neither does most of the NFL, lol.

Wait?? Marshall has a football team???

That's prollly why no FL school offered him out of HS. He was the state player of the year in his class and gets no offers from the home state schools? They knew something we didn't. Or, we thought we could straighten him out when he got away from FL.

He couldn't enroll to any Florida school but he did have offers from Illinois and Kansas State
