Bruce G will have another article in the Enterprise, this Friday... will there be any true insight or reflection... never thought it wise that we had a first time HC, first time OC, and first time DC.

Could you play non-scholarship ball with San Diego / Pioneer Football League? .. not my preference, but it's there.

Great game, seems like a solid young man. Congrats!

... and he had only exchanged one text with Coach Tedford ... quick work! Best wishes.

I meant Dunning was being melodramatic...give us everything or we quit. If we had better local writers, we might know specifically what Hawkins or footballers deem necessary... not some arbitrary "more money", "more support"... The budget did go up for football , and recruiting territory was expanded, by $400k or $600k.

Does a local scribe have the gumption to ask if we passed up recruits who weren't big on religion? ... It seems an inordinate amount of our recruits were religious. Just sayin.

We're looking for a winner.

Note to Enterprise: Hawkins is not an "ex-Aggie", he's an Aggie.

1. I think they would have to sit a year; and 2. there is a higher level of risk at an FBS school... 3 and 4 star recruits to name just one.

I wouldn't be so melodramatic after one failed coaching tenure... and I'm not trying to be tough on Coach Gould... but 4 or 5 FCS wins in 3 years is a pretty low bar. ... Dunning was also high on Moroski 4 years ago.

We were spoiled with a soft league for 20 years, and now we are playing in a very tough conference. Is Aggie Pride our motto only when times are easy? ... FWIW, NCAC football died for a lot of reasons. Don't forget gender equity and shrinking state budgets.

I had hope after the Oregon game, we seemed to have a winning strategy - ball control passing in the first half, and rammed it down their throats in the second half. ... Did we quickly abandon the ball control passing? ... Coach Gould never seemed to adjust from his desire to run smash-mouth football.

Any ideas why we lost 2-3 Center's to injury?

+ 1

List doesn't really fit the definition of "highest levels of football"... I hope we're well underway.

Surprised Gould thought he was going to have a series of discussions with our AD.

Teresa g will join him in the interview?
...interesting how the religion topic is now on the table.

Hopefully Dr. Blue has our recruiting coordinator - and maybe even himself - put in the work needed to keep these commitments. Six or seven phone calls won't take a lot of time, and would give the new HC a leg up. Given that Coach Gould is such a class guy, I hope he even lends a hand if appropriate.

Three players have their heads down at national anthem time (picture) ... was this some kind of protest?

Started with NOTHING and got 4 wins his first year, pretty amazing. Rocked College of Idaho.

Yes, but I think they also knew it was time for change.

Was Daft part of that problem? ... in Gould's 1st season when we had a great possession receiver, we knew when he was in, it was pass, and when someone else was inserted, it was run. 80% chance.

Beyond the basics baseball needs, I've always felt Dobbins needed a little more color, some pop. What that would be, I have no idea.

OA, but we have the talent to secure 4-5 wins like Coach Biggs, right? We should at least be middle of the Big Sky.

I understand Montana's attractions, but we also have advantages. I think any intelligent student-athletes would appreciate a university campus, international students, with an awesome campus and town, over being in the middle of nowhere. San Francisco over Bozeman.

I skimmed an article where the writer explained the offensive tricks and schemes Coach Peterson uses to beat schools that have higher caliber / higher rated recruits. I wish I bookmarked it ...

Stanford has much more than culture. Their campus, facilities, resources, beauty, and academics are tops in the whole country. ... I think Coach Les referred to the "eye candy" we need, and I hope a new Athletic Training Facility would provide that. I heard some alums talking, they were hoping for something at one of the end zones at Aggie Stadium with a 2nd or 3rd story that might serve mixed use / multiple purposes ... with some space on a higher level overlooking the field for alumni gatherings. UCLA's new football performance building will open onto their practice facility.

What do you think about Rob Nash?

Rob Ash was the head coach at Montana State and produced 4 FCS playoff teams. He was let go after a 6-5 season. Reportedly intelligent, now an offensive analyst for Arkansas. 63 years old, does he have one more fight left in him? Former QB?

Dan Hawkins is an Aggie with deep tied to the Aggie football lineage. I think if he were offered the job he'd be interested. I believe his wife is also an Aggie.
