Don't know if we could stop Shanley right now!

D has players...just need them to figure it out.

Our O could lose 5 games this yr with no defense.

If he does that there's no way Hanson starts next week!

I was of the opinion that Gleason should have got the A above Kristo to begin with.

So more suspensions to come...

Wow...Faison swinging a big stick in this situation! Kristo gona be pissed on missing out on his frequent flier miles cause he won't travel now. Disappointing start to season.

Bottom line...there is no controversy this Saturday. Marcus is starting and if he continues to play like he has, UND will win...even if the D continues to play like it has.

34-28 UND...Marcus goes for 275+ w 3TDs.

Having had time to mull this situation over for a day, part of me applauds Faison for taking some action as to discourage this type of behavior again but part of me feels there might have been a little grandstanding/soapbox at work to set himself apart from GT, which IMO isn't to hard to do. I'm conflicted to some extent as Faison doesn't seem to be the type to pat himself on the back, but this just leaves a little less than desirable taste in my mouth for some reason.

I hope for everyone's sake that when Braden plays again he is the FCS version of ARog and frankly 2 quarters vs. Mines is a small sample size. Marcus' stats are what they are thru 3 games...great, maybe not by some, but good enough to be in some elite company in the FCS QB conversation. IF Braden can prove to be better...that will great for this team, but Marcus IS the reason this team is where it is despite no running game and a D that is suspect at best.

Impressive especially when you take into account the lack of the Dickinson St. methodology in enrollment accounting!

I missed the Mines game so personally I've not seen Braden play. Excited to see him though based on the glowing reviews when the opportunity presents again tho.

Ding ding ding...we have a winner!!

No offense but giving up 42 and looking like a Pop Warner D was the difference in the game...period. Don't cloud the issue because of the pick 6. Bad play and throw...yes but seriously!

From a locker room standpoint Muss will get some raised eyebrows then. Marcus has stuck w this program even when things didn't go his way. Now the "anointed one" still gets the start even if Marcus sizzles again? Muss would def have a pair to do that IMO and possibly at the sake of some friction w in the locker room. Teammates for 3,4 5 yrs will no doubt have Marcus' back should he carve up Sac St.

So if Marcus continues his hot play and throws for 300+ yards and 3-4 TDs and gets win Saturday, Hanson get start vs. Cal Poly? Hypothetical scenerio I know but just don't see how Muss could make change if Marcus lights it up again.

It won't matter who plays QB from here on out if some other issues aren't addressed quickly.

We tackle at 60% of the time and we win last Saturday too. Marcus, even at less than 60%, has been far from one of the big issues that face this team at this point and time.

Or being smart and going with the red hot hand in Marcus!

Didn't hear anything about a team lawnmower tossing contest...

This just in...the "C" and the 3 "A"s suspended for the season hockey opener by Faison for a party incident that took place on 9/15. Least we know one AD in this state has a pair! In any situation, accountablility starts at the top and trickles down...the AC might won't to make note of this at some point.

Above post is under assumption Hanson is cleared for practice.

Someone w insight as to practice needs to fill us in this week who is getting reps w whom as the week goes along.

Things seemed to work out ok for Brian Kelly jumping to a lower end FCS to start with. He's an exception I know.
