    That's easy to believe in the other sports but hard to believe in football.

    How Shepherd stinks in men's basketball is hard to fathom (with such close proximity to the very talent-rich DMV).
    Kutztown seems to have the Rams # unfortunately. Would like to get that monkey off the back for the first conference title, but making the playoffs and advancing has always been the main goal for football.

    Still zero Pee Sack titles in any sport since joining the Pee Sack.

    Note: Listen, I am bored without football and want to talk trash. Is there a way that we can speed this season up?

    IUP hasn't exactly been 'down' like this board would lead one to believe. Tort has won two of the past 5 conference titles, and won the Region in 2017.

    No denying last year was a total travesty - on sooooooooo many levels. I suppose we are fortunate our disaster year was 6-5.

    Who knows what lies ahead. I have a hunch they won't be a fun bunch to play against.
    This.

    We definitely gave the team a hard time last year (players and coaches), but it was earned and I think they’d all agree. They weren’t happy either. That said, it was one year and it’s not like big picture the program has regressed in terms of conference and regional play.

    I don’t even respond to the CU hater, that program is an embarrassment to the PSAC.

    Hype Train is officially in gear!
    No hype just facts. As far as solid defenses Tort I believe in 2012 was #1 ranked D in country lost heartbreaker in regional final to WSU.

    Hopefully the upgrades up front - and a stronger, deeper group at LB - will give the DBs a nice boost.

    At times last year (many times) IUP's pass rush didn't exist -- and the secondary got hung out to dry as a result.
    Agreed.

    I was probably putting boogers on my bedroom wall at the start, and then discovering that girls weren't my mortal enemy by the end of it.

    Previous poster was saying the pass rush should resemble the old days, which is hype train stuff. The nostalgia of the early 90's run you guys had is now 30 years ago, which makes IUP fans sound eerily similar to Nebraska fans or even Miami Hurricanes fans (probably more appropriate).

    We will probably never see that kind of dominance in the Pee Sack ever again. The Godfather tried.....but they fizzled out even faster but at least they fizzled out on their own accord and not a Mon Valley U Rule.
    I am only focused on the 2024 season at this point. IUP seems to be acquiring both quality and depth on the defensive side. The defense looks promising where we did have question marks a while back. I think the secondary will finally live up to the, dare I say it, hype.

    So our good old days might only have only ended 15-20 years ago after Frank retired on his terms.........

    For sure, I really like the Santos kid, he brings it. Anyway, that’s my off-season contribution. I’ll be back in the fall to harass all of you on my way to a 3rd consecutive pickem title. Have a great summer all
    CU later this year. I'll be ready.
