WT Football

I don't think he will ever be a head coach again, at any level. Nesbitt has done well but their defense is suspect. Maybe he needs to hire Hughes. McBroom could go over there as AD and they could all live happily ever after.

I looked up the NO roster to see if Tobias Harris might be on it. The only players listed were a long snapper and 3 kickers. The USFL probably won't last long (again).

Tobias Harris is back in the portal. He claims to have 3 years eligibility left. If he has 3 years left, I assume he never got on the field at Old Dominion last season?

I am too. I wished him no ill will at all it just didnt work out at WT the same way it didnt for Nesbitt.

I hope he finds himself again like Nesbitt and has the same success unless he faces WT again in a different capacity.

OH WOW....what a HUGE pay cut!!!!! Assistants make like $40k tops....his position probably makes $30-35k. YIKES!

Maybe it's a stepping stone. I mean he will make some great contacts.

Yeah I was thinking he might have taken a shot applying for other D2 head coaching positions and turned his nose up at coordinator positions and got caught with nothing.

This could be a stepping stone or that was the last thing left besides being jobless for the year.

Me personally I would have looked into a temporary 5A or 6A head high school coaching position in Texas as a "last resort".

Some of those jobs could pay equal or more than some of the D2 head coaching positions.

I'm glad he found a job.

I saw Hunter Hughes name mentioned again on recent threads.

For giggles I looked up his twitter and saw he is on the USFL New Orleans Breakers staff.

Watched some film - reminds me of Fleming in the Carthel years. Impact player.

He does? Flemming was a 6'0 beast. Albeit Taye WILL be an impact player.

Taye is a HUGE pick up for WT. I was hoping he would dovwell at SMU, but he couldn't hang with the big dogs. Spent 2 seasons at SMU, one being RS. He never touched the field.

However, this young man is fast and athletic. He SHOULD tear it up in the LSC. He can do it all. Don't let his small size fool you. He is a baller. If used in the slot, he is going to destroy defenses. All the LSC defenses better watch this guy next year!!!!!

Again, GREAT grab by the Buffs.

WOU switching to the Flex Bone?

If the QB wanted to run the flex bone, he could have just gone to ENMU.

[Runnin' Cat]

WOU picks up 2022 Oregon 5A OPOY and USAFA transfer Jordan McCarty (QB). He looked impressive in limited action playing #4 after recently arriving in spring game.

WT gets SMU Transfer
Montaye Dawson 5'7 180
Kind of an all purpose offensive guy. Dude can run

No way. But it would be really impressive to finish in LSC top three.

Well, they are undefeated so far in 2023....

[BuffaloChip]

Yes, maybe Nostradamus’ preseason poll was right. WT top 10 team?
