We may not fill up the pro's, but we do our best to fill up the coaching ranks. Usually, our ex players coach at Furman.
Go Bulldogs.
Matt Dougherty on the MEAC.
PRGONOSIS: After just missing out on a playoff berth a year ago, the Bulldogs have the pieces to contend in the MEAC again. If, as Pough says, the quarterback knows where the ball’s going. McCoy is a great athlete and has the potential to be a good player, and if quarterback coach and ex-Furman great Billy Napier can help him with his accuracy the Bulldogs’ offense should roll. Martin departs but the running game is still in good hands with Jackson, especially with four starters returning on the offensive line. South Carolina State’s defense was among the best in the league in scoring, passing and rushing, and will be solid again if it can replace some quality players at linebacker and in the secondary. The Bulldogs were probably a close loss to Wofford away from making the playoffs a year ago and have the ability to challenge Hampton for MEAC supremacy after sharing the crown a year ago. Playing tough games on the road won’t help, but S.C. State is a notch above everyone in the conference except the Pirates.
