Dear Commerce, that island of a town in a sea of Blackland prairies with cedar and post oak trees…. We Need to Talk. And we wouldn’t need to chat unless I didn’t like you. I spent almost 3 years living in your town back in the mid-late 2000’s, and I have been back many times…
The entire defense-You pitched a shutout against an SELA team that been scoring 40 points per game on you and averaging 28 points per game, including 4 turnovers forced. Great effort and the best defensive game this year. Ozlo Rigby-Ice Veins Rigby put the the nail in another team’s coffin yet again with a 49…
Ill take an ugly win over a pretty loss, especially when it comes to a team like Southeastern. SELA is a very good program and honestly I ended up staying at home with the weather not great because I felt like we were going to get absolutely destroyed, and then the ghosts of the Blue…

If there has been one thing that been a constant in our university community over the past 5-6 years it has been this…. Division. Not Division I, but Division over Division I, and other things. On this blog and on my podcast I have expressed my consternation about a lot of things our current administration…
Ozlo Rigby-He hit the game winner that got that nasty taste out of the mouth of losing last season down in The Valley, and it was a big. He is one of the best kickers in the FCS. No question. Ben Mehan-Punted for 40 yards an attempt and did his absolute best to give Rigby…
Wow, just wow. What a game, and on homecoming. After last week’s loss, Clint Dolezel knew the clock was ticking on his time in Commerce, and he delivered with a team that was prepared. He was ready and had this team ready. His first test was passed, now onto the next round. They say the…

We fumbled the opening kickoff. The OPENING kickoff. Our defenive tackling is extremely poor. We knew their QB could run and he ran all over us. Our offense moved the ball well and found a way to blow it once they got inside the 10. Our running game is still strong and the O-Line is…

A game where we looked like at first we would put up a fight, or at least make it interesting. It got less interesting as the Hurricanes poured on the points. I thought the defense would be our saving grace, but it was obvious they were exhausted and the flood gates opened and what was…

Jack Jacobs-You probably didn’t know this, but Jack Jacobs had never made a start in college. In fact, he had never taken A SNAP at Quarterback in College. He had not seen game time since he was a Senior in High School at St. Francis High School in Southern California. His first college start and…
I mean, a win is a win. This is one of those games that you will have to have watched from start to finish. It wasn’d as dominant as it could have been, but it did not look quite as bad as some might think. It was a gritty win. The game was won in…

I remember the first time I was confronted with what a need was and what a want was, and why one came before the other. It was a text book in second grade I think and it was a social studies class. It was illustrated and it had a diagram of pictures of things that…
