2018 Schedules

Re: 2018 Schedules

IMO the mistake made with KK was the kid had NEVER ran a program. As far as an up and coming offensive coach....yes. But, making the jump to HC is a different animal.

I see WT experiencing the same thing with Hughes. Unless his mindset changes from micro manager to macro manager there are going to be some lean years ahead for WT.

Hello Neal Brown - NEXT HC at Texas Tech. Was signed, sealed, and delivered before TT beat Texas.

Yeah, every time I look at the upcoming season I think 4 wins for sure then I fantasize about 7 wins. So, the shorthorns delayed departure of KK by a year. Oh well, maybe after this year he can rejoin Sumlin in AZ.

Re: 2018 Schedules

Here is the latest I've heard on this. It looks like they are trying to put together the same kind of thing they had at Jerry World 4 or 5 years ago with mutiple LSC games in Frisco on the same day. Might happen next year, and likely wont just be Commerce/Tarleton. This year the TAMUC/Tarleton game will be in Commerce.

I hate this idea

Re: 2018 Schedules

Has anyone heard of a two year contract between Commerce and Tarleton at the Star in Frisco

Re: 2018 Schedules

We lost the 2X GNAC DPOTY in Kevin Haynes, a couple other key defenders, and our DC. We lsot an AA quality TE, and a couple of key WRs. We will have two good RBs back, one who went down midway through the season with a broken leg (Cummings). CWU will have Hennessey back at QB. And most of our O Line.

No doubt the CWU Cats have more than enough talent returning in 2018 to give WT A&M a good schooling. Hopefully the Buffs can play respectable & keep it close for a half.

Re: 2018 Schedules

I would guess a small percentage....like blue chip recruits, and/or players that came in and proved their worth.

This is from 2014, but will give you an idea:

Correct and loooong overdue. Should be applicable to scale for all other sports and in all divisions as well.

Re: 2018 Schedules

D1 CAN offer multi-year deals.

You're right. I should have said they dont have to have their existing school's permission.

I bet Sabin is not happy since he was big on signing huge recruiting classes and not letting go of players like other schools would if they asked for a transfer. Or basically made them transfer to FCS or lower so their would be no chance they would face Bama on the field.

[LSC Fan]

Yes. The ruling is for D1 only. The main argument was too many starters would play injured because of lack of depth. This protects the wellbeing of the players and gives true freshman the ability to get a little game experience.

I find this rule EXCELLENT. Wish it was also for DII.

Re: 2018 Schedules

I thought I saw that they notify their current school and the school has to immediately enter their name into a transfer database which would allow other schools to contact the Student Athlete.

Re: 2018 Schedules

They also made it where a kid could contact other schools exploring a transfer without having to notify their current team. D1 again obviously but still major changes.
