Most exciting thing you're looking forward to this spring?

I love a good QB battle. Can't wait to see who prevails and will be leading us into the 2023 season.

Pretty pivotal. We've got some pieces. A few transfers could fill in the pieces. Real interested in seeing how this group pulls together.

I feel like some of the UT systems "leers" money may allow for some real repairs/updates of the Field House and Shelton Gym. That could get us back in the facilities arms race game. Tarleton is "way" ahead on the football front. ACU isn't chopped liver either.

An expansion/update of the "Loddie Naymola Football Fieldhouse" would be epic.

Looking forward to seeing if our new DC, Coach Mutz installs a more aggressive defense.

BJ and Xavier have their Pro Day @1pm.. Man we have come a long long long way in a short time to already be holding our own NFL Pro Day.. This is huge and scouts will be everywhere.. Once players here the scouts come to Nacogdoches then they take notice and our talent will increase.. This is all because of Ryan, Coach C and his staff.. Thanks for brining a little respect back to Lumberjack Football.. AxeEm

BJ and Xavier really excelled.. Xavier was 4.4 on all his runs in the 40.. Really blew up the other drills they had him doing.. Caught the ball and punts and kickoffs very well.. BJ the same he really helped himself with the things he does well.. they really looked good with the weight they both gained.. Trea threw well with his elbow hurting from an injury he received working out for the draft.. Jeremiah caught some eyes today.. so proud to have 25 NFL teams come watch our players..later this spring they will come look at all the other young talented players we have..

Agreed. I think today helped all 4 of them make their case. I expect all 4 to be on a roster in the preseason, with BJ and Xavier being steals in the draft to whomever gets them.

Ty Warren is from Bryan, Texas, played at Texas A&M becoming a 1st round draft pick in the 2003 NFL draft and played for the Patriots and Broncos for 9 seasons.

This will be his first college coaching job as he has been coaching in the NFL and XFL.

Kirby Ennis is from Huntsville, Texas and also played at Texas A&M graduating in 2014.

He has been a defensive graduate assistant at Texas Tech for the past 3 seasons.

Before that he coached and taught at North Forney High School.

So you join the UT system and then start hiring Aggies to coach. All kidding aside, I don't think any program has had as many coaches hired away as Carthel has. Impressive how he continues to reload.

Carthel should moonlight as a consultant for coaching hires.

OL looks really big and deep... 2 QB's that can play.. And the RB room is stacked with Turner,Jerrell,and Williams.. Look for Turner to come on with it... He was a beast during the covid year and then got the injury bug.. he is back to full speed now...

Good to hear. The O line has been hit and miss. Like 3 solid games, then a stinker. A "week in, week out" type of O Line would give us the chance to be competitive against Troy.

Found out my wife's cousin is shopping himself around with two years of eligibility left. Do you think the Jacks could use a 6' 3" JC QB starter with special teams skills?

Any word on how the QB battle is going? Since I moved from Nac I hate missing the spring practices.

Last time I looked in the fall, we had like 100 players on the roster.

So there's this theory of college sports that some sports might lose money but are "tuition profitable."

Like lacrosse. Has 6-10 scholarships and 30 players, so 20 people are paying full tuition. 20*15000 a year is 300k, so as long as your Lacrosse coaches and field cost less than that, you can break even or get close to breaking even.

I kinda think that's what we're doing in football. Those extra 30 guys may have went to some other school, so SFA is booking something like 450k extra they may not get otherwise.

Now that's not enough to make the football team "break even", but it is a nice chunk of change for the university and students we might not otherwise have which is good for growth in a small way.
