  • He got a couple of late game series as a reward for being a good soldier. Not sure he threw a pass. He was not a Bernie Morris level talent.

    And I still say even to that, "That's a whole lot more than I think any of us ever would have anticipated, no?"

  • Yeah, you're right. I'm too sensitive. Shouldn't take "YOU want to kiss his ass for those things? Pucker up, STURT." as-if there's any antagonism intended.

    Hell, Wolf, how do you miss the obvious question... how did my casual observations get interpreted as-if "I want to kiss his ass"... ? ? ?

    Stupid silliness.

    If you'd like to pursue it further, I'm open to discussing this via PM per the so-called rules.
    yeah, i think you're too sensitive.  i dont think the man is offended I just think he was pointed in his reply/comment to you.  but like i said i dont speak for him, so maybe he was offended.  if he is then silly me.

    The highest level he played other than preseason was two years with the Virginia Destroyers (UFL) for which he accumulated no stats...yeah, let's reserve his spot in Canton.

  • I would say it's a surprise to all.  Thank him for all he's done and wish him the luck in the world as he moves on. 

    Time for the next man to step....hope we have that man on campus.  Could still be a banner season next year if we can find a good qb.

    I'm not sure Ed, Green was definitely our QB of the future, my primary concern is we are apparently down to two quarterbacks. But I agree there is concern we go to Oxford with new coordinators, secondary coach and now new QB.

    Starting QB will be Isaiah Green. Depending on the offensive plan it might have been even if Litton was here, so no worries there. Maybe bring a juco as the backup, but not starter.

    You realize, other people have done what you're doing here, and I end up getting some nonsensical heat as-if ***I*** was the one who refused to let go and "hijacked" the thread.

    Right?

    So, I was serious, I feel you had it right when you made up that particular so-called rule.

    I'll only say this much more, and only because you are the admin and because I still hold a lot of respect of you because unlike a lot of people, you've shown yourself someone who isn't too proud to re-think his actions.

    At the very least, we should be able to agree that the statement targeted me... he did specify me, right?... and his words were on the antagonistic/abrasive side.

    Can I go so far as to assume he was "offended?"

    I think so, but maybe there's a better word than "offended."

    To me, he seemed pissed off that I said something that, I suppose, he took as some indictment on the fans, of which he is one, and I now realize evidently he was one of the more vocal ones... and he felt I should get some backtalk for it.

    I think that's a fair account of the situation.   

    Again, if you or anyone else including him wants to pursue it, though, I'm only discussing via PM from here on.

  • Bam... nailed it.  Mentioned this before the season he could leave after jr. year.  People didn't like it.  Didn't have the year he needed to have but he would not be given slack this year in starting role so its a risk all around.  That's why RS etc is a thing of the past.  Play them and go unless they won't play at all and that will probably be a wasted scholarship.  I do not believe he is ready but the Lamar Jackson is who I'd draft anyways.  After that the rest are all the same.  All have flaws.  He could climb the qb draft board.

    Because you keep doing the same things. You're doing it now and trying yet again to act like you're the victim. It's old. It's played. Don't keep saying "you're only discussing it via PM" , then just do it. Quit going back and forth over nothing, hijacking threads and then acting like you've done nothing wrong.

    Bring in a freshman qb that's actually good.  Baisden from Martinsburg.  Whoever loses battle between Greene and Morrell might dip.  Baisden would be there RS and licking his chops.  Winner!!!!  Hard worker!!!  Good blood lines for grit!!!!

  • One thing is certain. We will soon find out if the issue was Litton or the coaching he received while with us.

  • I’m curious if they bring in another QB this late in the recruiting game? This class already looks to be one of the worst in a decade. I hope some talent emerges.

    It will be interesting to see who the new OC is and what kind of scheme he has. That will go a long way in getting the fans back. We need to get back to Marshall football, basketball on grass with excitement. Every running play a draw and 80% oif the passes going to the sideline was getting real old. Hopefully the new guy will use a TE more and slants and seam routes a little more. Also would be nice to see a QB under center a few times with real motion. Just my thoughts.

    Green was getting reps with the 1s last spring and from reports he sounded impressive, just not fully ready yet. If you've seen his highlights, he looks good. I hope he does well. I also think Morrell can't be written off, unless he transfers.

  • Good luck to Litton.

    How about this for a plan? Marshall brings in Iowa Western CC Head Coach Scott Strohmeier as the new Offensive Coordinator. Strohmeier, a former QB,  is this year's juco coach of the year, the second time he has won the award. He has an impressive resume.

    http://www.goreivers.com/general/2017-18/releases/20171219gwyv8l

    Strohmeier brings with him his QB, Kai Locksley, the juco Offensive Player of the Year.

    http://www.goreivers.com/sports/fball/2017-18/releases/20171220k48cte

    Strohmeier also brings with him a couple of other juco All-Americans from Iowa Western CC.

    http://www.goreivers.com/general/2017-18/releases/20171219hp286j

    Iowa Western CC is where the Herd got RB Anthony Anderson, and where Locksley migrated shortly after verbally committing to the Herd. Clearly, the coaching staff is familiar with this juco program. Also, it is interesting that Locksley is still unsigned as far as I can tell based on the article below. Now that the deck has been cleared with Litton, could this enhance Locksley's interest in the Herd, and could that interest further be enhanced if his juco coach is hired? Just wondering, I have no inside scoop.

  • Chase an NFL QB? LOL

    People are missing the most telling thing that will make Chase fail.  He plays soft, can't run, and can't take an NFL hit.  If he thought that Akron player rung his bell, NFL hits will really hurt him.  He's gonna be on the turf saying; "Who dat? Who dare?" a lot.

    I don't think the fans didn't buy tix because Chase was the QB. That's a stretch.
