Minutemen ranked 123

I know app was ranked 126 and geo south 124 and geo state was also already ranked, but app and geo south get a pass from most people because they are in their FBS transitional. Geo state as we all know is way young with a coach many see good things in. Umass has been around a little longer and isn't in conference yet no point in adding another program with a bad ranking and I know they all would but I believe umass is in a different category. Would rather add a school from FCS that has unknown potential then a FBS school that is known and lacks promise.

This is all fair game. Charlie Molnar was a career assistant coach and when everyone from our A list turned us down, he was hired. The guy pissed everyone off, players, his own recruits were transferring etc.

Then a UMass donor, the same who donated 2.5 Mill to the Press and Skybox donated the 880k buyout of Molnar contract.

Mark Whipple accepted the job, who coached us to the 1998 FCS Championship game, coached in the NFL and Miami.

We will be better, but our offensive line looked terrible in the spring game, all freshmen. The rest looked good and most next year players are not on campus. That includes Marshall's quarterback Blake Frohnapfel and a Penn State WR.

Regarding attendance, we went from 10k to 15K with terrible teams. Look for another large boost to attendance this year.

We open with Boston College and will have 3 games on campus. The Performance Center will open in July and this is a video with it still under construction.





Again all the above is fair game.

I'm glad I didn't post about liberty because you umass fans aren't just calling me a hater, I could see umass being in the belt for a couple years but not a long time, I have qualms with umass past it being a possible sun belt Idaho 2.0 just because we would e adding another Indy FBS team needing a home with a garbage record from the last year and far from any other school, I think both programs can and will rebound but I think that they don't have a long future in the belt
