    Re: SoCon Off-season thread - 2023-2024

    I didn't have too much contact with him when he played at Chattanooga, but that which I did, he always seemed very respectful and buttoned up. I guess he blew through his $40MM earnings and had to...

    Re: FCS over FBS Scalp Watch 2024

    This may be from behind my rose colored glasses, but I have to think my Chattanooga Mocs have a puncher's chance against Georgia State in Week 2. The Mocs open up at Tennessee the week before, so...

    FCS/G5 Draft Results and the portal

    I have a theory that if you are good enough to play in the NFL the plethora of scouts will find you no matter where you play. Just ask Jerry Rice or Terrell Owens, or the kid that got drafted out of...
