Ok, we are 3-0. That is the good news. It may not feel like it, it may feel like in alternate universes we are 0-3 or 1-2, but we are undefeated. I have to keep telling myself that. Right after the game, Russell (AKA Lionmojo) texted me and said “We are getting everyone’s best shot…
A lot of thoughts, but not for tonight. Just happy……well not happy…..but I am good with being 3-0 for right now. 5 Morning After Thoughts published first thing in the Morning.
Bring us home, Lucky Lions, bring us home a win.
Defense……keep doing what you are doing. Great effort and execution so far. You are carrying this team. Offense…..still sputtering despite the score. Penalties have wiped out some big plays, and Preston Wheeler…….he just looks lost again. My Opinion? The staff needs to really consider opening the QB competition and put the guy on the field…
So Far, So Good. Lion defense is playing VERY well, doing a great job reading the ENMU defense and playing sound defense, forcing a rare ENMU turnover. The Offense again is somewhat feeling their way through so far, but at this point having EJ Thompson and Darrion Landry back looks better so far. Preston Wheeler…

Hello again, Lion Fans, it’s almost that time….and time now to take a look at how the Eastern New Mexico offense lines up against the Blue Gang defense of the Lions. If there’s been a constant in the early going, it has been the Lion defense, as expected. The early concerns about everyone being on…
Well we had another tougher than expected game this past week. But another win is all that matters…right? We are adding a new segment for the final thought beginning this week. As a freshman in college at ET my very first pass I caught was from the great hall of famer and my friend Bobby…
Greetings Lion fans, after a workman like victory over William Jewell, the Lions return to Lone Star Conference play with a trip to Portales and the Greyhounds of Eastern New Mexico. This week’s column will have a little more of a familiar look to it, as we are starting to accumulate some tendencies and statistics…
A few thoughts on a disappointing………win. William Jewell deserved to win this game. I made a comment that in the game of Football, or any team sport for that matter, you need to do 4 things to win games. First, be more excited to play than the other team. Second, know your job and do…
There are 4 things to winning a football game. 1. Be Excited to play. 2. Make Routine Plays, 3. Do your job, 4. Play Smart. William Jewell did the better of those 4. They did not lose the game, but they played better than the Lions in all the rest. Congrats to Jewell, they will…
A very sloppy second half so far. We should be rolling these guys, but Jewell is playing smarter and with more discipline, and they are playing harder. Lions need to play a strong fourth quarter to make this a better quality win. Bring us home, Lucky Lions, bring us home.
Overall, the Lions look a lot more comfortable on both sides of the ball, especially on offense. A lot more relaxed looking team that is playing a lot better than last week. An early fumble, but the defense has been absolutely stout. One thing, William Jewell is NOT a bad football team and they are…
So Far, So Good. Lions playing well on both sides of the ball. The Lions fumbled the ball but with the way the defense is playing, that will looked to be a remedy, but turnovers of any kind are never good. See you at halftime.

Hat tip to a Youtube Video from Brandon Misener at D2football.com who broke the news that Sporting Kansas City will withdraw from hosting the NCAA Division II National title game due to the need to make repairs to the playing field. They also withdrew from their agreement for future national title games that would have…
Greetings. Lion fans! After a thrilling come from behind win over the rival Javelinas from Kingsville last week, now it’s time to turn our attention to the Cardinals of William Jewell College. There’s not much to go on, as the Cardinals game was canceled last week at the 7:15 mark of the opening quarter, trailing,…
Well after a harder than anticipated double OT win over the little piggies(of course we new it wouldn’t be that easy…it’s A&M-Kingsville still) the Lions set their eyes on a road trip to Liberty Missouri to face William Jewell. Here are my 5 thoughts on the Lions this week. First Minor thought…the piggies are a…
Lion Volleyball- Huge Congrats to the Lion Volleyball squad who knocked off defending national champion Concordia-St. Paul. The Ladies are now 6-2 on the year heading into a neutral site match up against Southern Arkansas on September 6th. In the past couple of weeks, this team has beaten the number 2, 3, 10, and 16th…
Talk about running on pure adrenaline. Last day was the final day at work for me before I start a new job in a couple of weeks, I had been up since 6 AM and worked till 5, fought Dallas traffic all the way through Greenville to meet up with my Dad and take our…
