It seemed to me that more players participated, on both offense and defense, and even early in the game. Unfortunately the game stats for participation are visibly messed up but it lists 62 players as playing, that would be virtually everyone who dressed.

yep

. I haven’t seen Tyson McWilliams, injured against Sac

Larison, Teddye Buchanan, Tehran Thomas and dozens of others played QB in H.S. were recruited to play other positions here from the get go. Most the recent QBs are QB prospects as was Trent Tompkins. Trent had a legitimate shot at playing QB.

My reading says the elimination of the NLI took effect already, in October.. It replaces a one size fits all letter with contractual documents. More work for lawyers, more negotiation of terms. Athletes are still bound to whatever they sign, but the terms of the contract are not as uniform.

. It looks like it opened at 7.5 and the line moved based on bets over the last couple of days.

You can’t assume that Doss and Harrell would have had the catches they did on a team that was featuring Larison and vice versa, there are a limited number of touches.

It would be nice if they had Doss, but it would be nice if the current team had Gilliam, a pre-injury Thomas and had Amoah and Ford.

Davis went multiple decades with a no sorority policy due to some vote of the women students in the sixties..

If you want to get women to games it needs to be a social event. UCLA had a parent’s weekend and the Sorority chartered a bus to go to the game with parents. So the girls, boy friends and parents all went.

Davis is 58% women students. International students make up 17% of the student body, so the density of preexisting football fans is low.
Davis prides itself on its admitting 37% first generation college students, so many have no family tradition of being a fan of college sports in general

Even Montana had empty seats it was only about half of capacity.

Have you noticed the empty seats at all of the FCS playoff games on TV? There were 3220 at the Richmond game.

.
There are pictures of Tyler Parker as a muscular 290lbs when he was 14.
You can understand why people projected him to keep growing.

I suspect there will be a few transfers, specialists seem to transfer more than anyone.

I don’t mind a work in progress, but since I don’t use instagram there is nothing for me to look at.

The ucdavisaggies.com site briefly had a signing day central that listed 19 signess, but the individual signee links led to page not found errors.

You guys were talking about Pat McCann a former assistant coach at Davis as part of a discussion of coaching as a career, and mentioned a shirt he made, but didn’t mention that he was calling plays for UNI in the 2018 playoff game. Odd coincidence.

Having two candidates from a team splits their support.

. There are more contractual type documents, not just a letter of intent, due to the NLI money. I suspect it will take longer to sign in some cases.

i know, but it is irritating to see one sided affairs turn into what looks to have been a close game. Going back to last year, which might have cost a playoff bid.

Not the first game we yielded a lot of yardage with a lead. East Texas A&M, 457 yards passing.
i think the observation on last weeks Aggie Pride podcast that the corners don’t guard closely with a lead is correct. I think that is according to scheme.
Hopefully Tyson McWilliams is available, after his injury against Sac.

The Ivys only play 10 games as a result of their desire to not impose too large an obstacle for academics. Adding potentially five more would be contrary to that goal.
