I will agree with 7-8 being a better possibility now, but guys thinking we are going to win 9 with this squad have lost their damn minds imo.

I would be ecstatic for 8-9 to happen, but their is no way in hell I expect it.

....9-4 after beating the piss out of Iowa in the capitol one bowl.

Looks like a great time. We had bought Lauren Daigle tickets for Christmas 2019 and were set to attend the concert in like June of last year. Then the WuFlu happened. We are hoping they are able to get it rescheduled so our kids can finally experience their Christmas gift from a year and a half ago.

That reminds me, I have not heard anything about them rescheduling the Casting Crowns concert they delayed twice.

I agree 7-5 is still the best expectation. Anything above that is a wonderful bonus and gives us excitement for a bright future.

I don't understand why everyone picks a final record. There are just too many things that are unknown. There's the usual injuries and turnovers. But now to add to the mix, you just don't know about transfers for your team or the other teams...both going out and coming in. You don't know about freshmen for your team or others. This year we have a whole new coaching staff with a completely opposite philosophy which will probably help use players to their best ability but there's also the time to adjust that is needed. We don't have many players that are used to playing with each other. I like to do extremes...5 to 9 wins. Should be 7 wins but if enough bad things happen 5, and if everything goes in our favor 9.

Can’t disagree one bit, lots of factors that can work either way. Going back to Dooleys years those factors always seemed to go against us and that seemed to permeate into the following regimes. I agree we can surprise folks, and I’m typically an optimistic person, but I feel it’s best to be cautiously optimistic until I see the product on the field. That said, my heart tells me CJH is about to break the negative cycle our first year coaches have incurred.

Did you even read the full tweet or just the first of it? NM, I already know the answer.

Uh, no, I read it. No reason to get defensive, I just have no idea what you were getting at. What does sitting out of football have to do with dumbing down America? Keep the answer to yourself if you want I guess lol

I know football is king, and we need to get it right. But, our athletic department is actually very successful right now.

I would like to know if any school is better if you look at men's and women's basketball, baseball, softball, golf, and tennis. I believe track and field is also ranked. No wonder Danny White wanted to come here.

Lol I just saw a Vanderbilt fan arguing with a Tennessee fan on that Twitter post someone shared about the most loyal fans, that not only were Vanderbilt fans more loyal for going to football games at all, but Vanderbilt would beat Tennessee in football and they had so many more programs that were better. 😂 Typical superiority complex from an Andy fan.

Nice try. Can't be the most loyal fanbase if you aren't a fanbase. If all of your home games are carried by opposing fans, you don't have a fan base. MTSU has more fans than Vandy.

Saw this and thought about how true it is. It's funny how you can remember someone by how they laughed. My dad, may he RIP, was one of those people that had infectious laughter. When he laughed, you couldn't help but laugh with him. Even if it was over something not even funny. He was fun to watch commercials with, because if one tickled his funny bone, no matter how silly I thought the commercial was, I'd be right there laughing with him.

Appreciate those moments of joy and laughter and happiness when you have them. Those are the memories you'll carry with you and cherish.

saw her at TBA with wife before Panedmic. Immensely talented. While not my particular cup of tea, will be a great show for granddaughter. Being the only guy there at the show was a good indicator.
