Hopefully all those redshirts we saw every home game will
contribute quickly.

Congrats on a terrific season. I'm looking forward to next year
as it will be a true fight for the league championship. I'm glad
the schedule swings back in LU's favor with you having to play
@Coastal and @Liberty. Should be the first time since 2006 that
someone will come into Lynchburg from the Big South and likely
be favored to win the game. I’m interested to find out what week
the game is, as we know it’s not the final week of the season
because we play @VMI the final week.

No way... Why did they remove Liberty and Stony Brook game as
the last game of the season?

We're also at Presbyterian which I think will be a tough game.
Our three toughest conference games will all be on the road next
year. I'm hoping we can get our first FBS win next season and
take care of business against Central Connecticut State and
Colgate so that we can lose one of those games and still have a
case for an at large.
I've said it a couple times in various different message boards
but you guys will be VERY good next year. You guys were young
this year, and most/all of your impact players that returned
this year weren't playing or weren't playing at 100%. You lose a
couple big name players, but returning almost your entire
starting D and offensive line more than makes up for the losses.
And after playing the NEC champ as well as the number 1 seed in
tournament, I feel safe saying you guys could have made some
noise in the play offs this year.
Also it's unfortunate the Liberty Stony Brook game won't be the
season finale.

I think a big indicator for where the program is will be how
recruiting goes between now and signing day. Two big names to
look out for are Stacey Bedell and Dalton Crossan. They are
co-hansen award winners and both have a couple FBS offers. To
sign either would make a huge statement that we can bring in
great home grown talent without them first going to Hofstra.

Liberty will be going into next season with a new head coach.
Danny Rocco to Richmond.

Wow thats big news for the Big South. Sometimes these things
have a funny way of working out better for the team losing the
coach, however, Rocco did a great job at Liberty lately.
SB's schedule, which has notably increased in difficulty lately,
is in this interesting position of having stronger and/or FBS
teams up front, and then finishes with conference games. Theyve
been inching forward against the FCS teams (on the whole, that
is) and will stun one of them soon.
Lots of credit due for a team that lost its starting QB in week
4.

It's because they lost their starting QB that they improved. No
disrepect to Coulter who I'm sure was a fine team leader and QB,
but Essington brought mobility to the position that was lacking.

Sorry to hear Coach Rocco is leaving I thionk he is good man .
The Flames have to regroup , I heard the SHSU coach is being
offered an FBS job possibly Tulane. They build programs and
move up the ladder. I'm anxious to see our final schedule
since we still 2 open dates but 5 home games right now.
