All of our goals are in front of us. Please continue to accept mediocrity while we raise ticket prices, beg to be compared to the top 5 G5’s, and deliver a D- gameday experience by putting off-brand bandaids on problems.
Remember when we wouldn’t stand for this a year ago?! The irony is
Staggering
To be fair, the cabinet was left completely bare. And we don’t have the money to buy an o-line because our fans are cheap as hell
You're what's wrong with modern college sports.

It shouldn't be about who can pay the most. Money should not buy wins. You're lost.
Money was buying wins before too

Dude we ran Clark outta town on a rail and People talked so much shit about him. This doesn’t look any better.
Clark’s teams were never in position to win these games.

Our players are the reason we are losing this game, without a doubt.
Well that’s absolutely a lie. And we down 24. What are you talking about
QB doesn't throw 3 TDs in the Redzone in the 1st quarter, this is a totally different ball game. All 3 throws are totally on Swann, not the coaches.
That’s possible but still comes back to coaching and development. This is 2 weeks in a row and this freshman never Gave them a chance to come back.
Bro it’s pathetic give this act up.

Would’ve liked to see what Wiles could’ve done a little sooner, but I’m sure he’s not playing the first string defense.

I know some starters on D may be pulled, but Billy looks more decisive and comfortable than Gillon did.

I can not remember back to back games where an APP team has looked so (---------------------) Choose your word. Honest to God I had never heard of Lindenwood until I saw them on the schedule and So.Miss hasn't won a FBS game in TWO years.

We’re down our top 2 QBs.
The OL is an issue though.

Long season ahead with a bye week coming. Don't turn on each other, keep the faith and see how it plays out. Coach DL will do the best he can with what he has. I HATE to lose, but I would rather lose and still be a Mountaineer more than I would want to win and be part of any other school.

Do you put in a veteran QB or true freshman on the road when you are down? Don’t question the 70 years of NFL experience though.

I didn’t make the rules. We have to play by them if we want to be competitive. There’s a reason why Sears went under - the refused to adapt to the changing landscape and thought their history and brand would carry them. It didn’t work.

If I’m part of delivering a product that is generating hundreds of millions (probably billions) of dollars, I want my nut. Sure, and education is part of my compensation, but that’s not going to cut it when schools are making millions of my performance. I don’t blame athletes at all for getting paid.

Year 5 vs. year 1. Not acceptable at any time, but there is a little bit of a difference.

Bought a bunch of talent . That doesn’t really get to where used as an excuse anymore
I don’t think we have the money to buy a lot of talent. Something tells me this is the new normal.
