Ouch! While this is a much improved schedule from this past year, it doesn’t come at the best time for Bobby. Having said that, I’m guessing that we may just see what type of coach he is.
Go Hogs!
I’m getting excited about football already.
Can’t wait for Spring Practice.
The cupboard is not completely bare. He will have an offensive line. He just has to teach them how to pass block. The secondary is a huge question mark. With the new kids and those returning from sick list reciever should be OK. QB is of course also a huge question mark.
Bobby hasn’t lost many college games. I know he hated losing in Atlanta. This may be a tough couple of years to start but I expect him to surprise a few people.
Recruiting is very impressive so far.
I do think that they could have waited a couple years to put Tulsa on the schedule. Having Tulsa, Ole Miss back to back to end the season in Fayetteville is a little too Soap Opera for me. Bobby doesn’t need that.
I know they are playing Texas in the third game, but I just wish we could beef the schedule up a little more thatn Lousiana-Monroe and Western Illinois. I guess we need the two pracice games because I am not sure how this team is going to be, if he can get some of these kids they are pursing now we should have a strong class with kids playing sooner than later.
I almost hope the Coach Patrino redshirts all that the incoming freshmen and take his lumps this next year. It’s not going to happen but it would be nice.
I predict that by middle of the season Nathan Dick will be the QB if not before. Casey wont finish out the season at QB.
I’m glad Ole Miss comes to RRS. I’m sure we can “welcome?” that coaching staff home in fine fashion.
Mike in Magnolia, I don’t belive the we are void of talent but need at wide receiver is obvious and if they qualify they play.. It will be more interesting to see who comes out of spring ball as the starter at QB. Anytime a new coaching staff comes all positions should be up for grabs especially after that Cotton Bowl performance.
