Welcome to AST! I think a lot of us are excited that there is actual energy in the program again. Hopefully Hawk can translate some of that energy to wins.

3 star 6'6 WR Cole Turner has committed to Nevada

We're good. We're good.

GO AGS!

For your sanity I deleted that post. But man, I do think you need to chill. Also talking about key positions, that's just poor journalism on the part of guys down south. There have been press releases and newspaper articles up here saying, while no starter has been named, Maier has been running the 1st team offense. Again, this is stuff that Long's staff will have seen. I get that you want the boys to have every advantage, I really do, but people discuss team strats on these fan forums all of the time.

I apologize for being argumentative with you, but man... you have to think within reason. SDSU in some polls is top 25. Sure, they have some young guys and we still have element of surprise, but the terms used earlier are very broad. Most teams in the country run some pro and spread sets. It's not like the playbook got leaked. I'm looking forward to a game in which hopefully the Aggies are competitive, but we should try to not get ahead of ourselves on the success we may or may not have this season.

Yeah I wasn't trying to be a jerk man. It's just I don't know what to tell you. If you are employed by SDSU athletics you have to have understood potential implications of looking at UCD info. Like I said and Bige reinforced, I don't think this really makes an impact in the long run.

If you have that much of a moral dilemma about it maybe you should have just stuck to SDSU stuff for the week. I get that it's a public forum, but come on dude.

If you wanna run off to the football team with the "gameplan" then go ahead but it still isn't anything that Long doesn't already know. If SDSU is going to win it's because they are a bigger, faster, and more imposing team that's a division up and vying for a top 25 spot. You guys are being ridiculous.

17-6

14-6 Utah

That would be quite the upset for UND. I know a lot of the FBS programs that play FCS teams week 1 sometimes play with a limited or conservative playbook as they are already looking forward to week 2.

Do you want me to delete it lol. Rocky Long has been around for a long time. I guarantee that they have prepared for aspects of the spread and pro style (only some of the most common sets in the game). Long also mentioned in one of his interviews that they watched film on our coaches at previous times in their career. They know Speckman is all about the fly.

Video would be awesome, but it's a great first step that we even have the weekly show now. In the last few weeks it seems like we have taken several steps in appear more like a legitimate D1 football program

I do think it's funny that a lot of the SDSU media is talking about the QB battle between Dale and Spencer and how that Spencer is the dual thread guy and Dale is the pro style guy and up here most people seem to believe that it will be Maier who gets the job. I mean, he's been running the 1st team offense at all of the scrimmages.

It appears that the article I was reading got edited and no longer includes that information. Looks like Plough let the cat outta the bag before he was supposed to.

Ehhh it's Thursday. SDSU isn't going to dramatically their game plan at this point and Long already mentioned that they studied up on our coaches past schemes which includes Plough's offense from NAU and Speckman being the god father of the fly offense so they to a degree probably already knew what to expect. Yeah on their fan boards they've been talking more about ASU than Davis. Their fans are overlooking us for sure, don't know about the team though.

I dislike the term "commit" in college athletics recruiting simply because it doesn't have any meaning. Commit means commitment. "I am making a commitment to play for your program" is what it's supposed to mean, but players drop commitments all the time so it's a pointless phrase.

Looks like we're going with the shiny, dark gold, script Davis helmets on Saturday.

I haven't been able to find it, but apparently Hawkins released a depth chart where he lists like 3 or 4 players as potential starters for basically every position. He's really going with the element of surprise for SDSU. Article does mention that Maier has the QB position locked up and that Williams will be getting starts at RB, but several other RBs are pushing hard to get the starts. Names Layton, Gilliam, and Modise.
