Game Day Thread "Spiders vs EW"

[wr70beh]

The team is not blind to the coach chatter. I don't think it was when London left, and don't think they are in this case. It has an impact .

We would have been seeded and not on the road for the second week in a row to the other side of the country.

All that said, we still didn't show up to play today.

We still would have been on the road for this game.

 

[DTSpider]

Anymore red shirts we can burn?

48 playing today - not sure if he's played before.

 

[ChoppinBroccoli]

Kick the FG. Screw their shutout.

 

[9Legs]

Disappointed YES, but with all the injuries and distractions, I will take this season any year! Johnson is having a learning experience today- It will benefit him!

KJ played list a 3 game starter today, but then he ran for his life most of the time

He's got to protect the ball. He carries it in one hand away from his body.

 

[SpiderK]

Pathetic

 

[Marley13]

Why are they still throwing the ball? Bush league like JMU.

 

[urfan1]

3 man rush and zone D will not work against this team

I'm so glad this season is over, I am worn out from injuries and all the Rocco crap. Hope the next coach does better

Hard to get much better. Rocco inherited a dumpster fire from Latrell. Small private school competing at the highest level.....I wouldn't want to follow Rocco.i hope he stays.

 

[One putt]

Calling it a night. If I wake up in a cold sweat, someone remind me that we're still overachievers who will be in good shape to make another run in 2017.

Exactly. People want to blame coaches.....4 fumbles in the first half sets the tone. You can do that against Rhode Island. This isn't Rhode Island. Personally I am really proud of the Spiders.

 

[PASpiderDad]

A tough one today, but a really good season for Spiders, especially when considering all the injuries to overcome. Hopefully Rocco stays, but if not the cupboard is not bare.

 

[urfan1]

Don't forget travel last weekend and exams this week -- throw on the first snow/cold game and a formula for a bad day. Just what we had

 

[Spiderwiz]

The cupboard is not bare. I hope Gill/Crutcher has a good Rolodex.

 

[DTSpider]

Really rough day on what has been a very impressive season.

 

[Eighth_Leg]

I know today sucks, but I hope this team can make it an enjoyable flight home. It will be one of the last times they'll all be together, and they had a heck of a year. A national title would have been nice, but there's a lot to be proud about this year

 

[ChoppinBroccoli]

Really rough day on what has been a very impressive season.

Agreed. Proud of our boys. Too much adversity, and too little ball security today.

 

[paward]

Not the day I wanted but this is my team and I am proud of them and the season. Whoever the coach is next year Rocco or anyone else I hope they give their all to theses guys they deserve it.

 

[iSpider]

Whew...that was a close one.

 

[PawleysSpider]

Congratulations and Thank You to the Spider Football Student-Athletes for a Great Season!
Best Wishes for The Holidays!

 

[SE174]

Congrats on a great season, Spiders. Your team overcame a lot of adversity, and has a lot to be proud of. Safe travels home.

 

[SpiderAlways]

Good luck going forward SE!

 

[Eight Legger]

Win the whole thing, Eagles!

 

[EWU Grad 82]

Congratulations on making it to the quarter finals. Despite the adversity the Spiders faced, they persevered, the team never gave up and had a great season. From what I observed today your team has a lot of heart. They never quit despite the fact they were really banged up, had to play in really cold temperatures, (which make injuries hurt even more) had to travel 3000 miles and had to adjust to the three hour time zone change. I wish you all the best.

 

[VT_Spider]

Good luck Eagles, if y'all run into jmu please bear the breaks off of them.
