Agreed. I wasn't referring to future games. I just expected more gnashing of teeth from the fans, now.

I was mainly referring to the person who posted the oversized gif.

I'll continue to cheer for Marshall in OOC games. Marshall winning those is good for App, just like App winning those is good for Marshall.


And no, most of us aren't running around like chickens with our heads cut off. 2013 was much worse, and our coach from that season now coaches a top 25 P5 team. Everyone has ups and downs. We'll be back.

We are used to hearing it every other year. Have they brought up the 5 yo and the grandma that cussed at them yet? I can’t ever decide every two years if it’s the same grandma, if the kid is the grandchild, if the 5 yo never ages or its a different 5 yo every two years, etc…. Lots of questions. One day they will provide video evidence and I will get my answers.

I think a lot of us are just thankful for the amazing run we had. Seasons like this are inevitable and part of the game. This staff and team were inconsistent all season, and our identity seemed to change from week to week. The margin between going 3-9 and 9-3 was pretty slim. It was chaotic. We'll be back soon. Back to the drawing board.

Just as the original posted implied, everyone wants us to be in a world of disarray and in reality some fans probably are. Majority of us aren’t out here concerned about ripping everyone else. The fact is what happened this year wasn’t acceptable to us and changes are going to be made in some form. We’re just concerned with getting the train started back on the tracks. Until then, it’s go Sun Belt. Of course we don’t love certain fanbases and teams. Everyone can agree they do the same. But if a Sun Belt team is playing a team from another conference, I’m rooting for them 10/10 times. To all the teams and fanbases that made a bowl, go represent the conference well. We will do our best to get back to a point where we can do the same going forward.

I secretly root for Appy St when we are not playing them. DO NOT worry....they will be back.

I take that back, there's actually someone over there saying we need to go after Deion Sanders.

If I can cheer for ODU out of conference then dammit all of you can cheer for App out of conference.

Once the bowls start we'll be there rooting for the SB teams....even THAT team.

Let's not get carried away. We'll be rooting against whoever THAT team is playing

I don't know if it's just me, but the Coastal-ULL tension is pretty deep seeded. More so than you'd think. I truly don't believe the majority of either fan base would root for the other out of conference. I know for a fact that the vocal fans do not.

The league is really missing out on that one.

At least one P5 transfer has indicated he’s committed to signing with JMU.

Jordan McCloud from Arizona. 2 years of eligibility. Originally projected as a 3* prospect. A dual threat QB from FL where he was a 7A all-state player.

I'd be okay with an off year if my team had been performing like that.

This is the perfect take.

It doesn't really matter. Fans screwing with fans on a message board doesn't change the outcome of a game. I take no joy in conference mates losing OOC games. And I certainly am happy when they win. But I don't have to let them know that. And the outcome is the same.

No, it does not.

FWIW there's a story going around that Dale Jones our DC is not having his contract renewed. Naturally people are telling them to think bigger.

Do you think if I root for your opponent while sitting at home in WV it affects whether or not you'll win? That's a special kind of crazy. I wouldn't do that, but it makes no difference either way.

Meh... I haven't been here long enough to hate anyone yet, now that I got the cheap shot from the Cajuns in the bowl and the one fan from App last year throwing stuff at our boys outta my system.. I'll root for any of the teams as long as they're not in front of us in the standings :)
