At the start I tried to use UMHB's current roster, but relized real quick that none of the varsity were playing. But, like DFWCurfan said...it was nice to see the up and coming players. It seems that we have some very talented players ready to get a chance to move up. Looking forward to a great upcoming season! Co Cru!

Interesting on Thursday Milsaps faces Belhaven...Think I'm gonna catch that one since we face both teams right after.

Not sure what to think about Belhaven but Milsaps might be in for a long season. After going 3-6 last year, I just read they have 6 QB's on campus and not one has a college snap under their belt. Against Hal Mumme's Air Raid that is going to be an interesting mix of flinging it around 50+ times for the Blazers and possibly running 50+ times for the Majors.

Anyone coming to Ohio for Saturday's game?  If so, I'll look you up.

I'm likely moving down your way in a couple of months.  Copperas Cove looks most likely.

Two years ago I was at your playoff games against Rowan and UWW.  UMHB will be my third favorite D3 team, behind CWRU and Wittenberg.

Kelly Boggs said he will be there.  Might want to get in touch with him.

Copperas Cove?  RG3 country.  You'll definitely be close enough to check out the action at The Cruthedral.  This season we have 7(!) home games.

I will indeed be present and accounted for at Ohio Wesleyan on Saturday! My wife has family in Columbus, so we will probably arrive 15-30 minutes before kickoff. I'll message  you my cell phone number, ADL70. FWIW, I lived in Cove for few years back in the early 90s. It's only about 25 miles from Belton.

Kris Brown is out? Ouch
Hopefully the rather young secondary of UMHB will be aided by QB's running for their lives from our d-line?

Going to be very interesting to see the 2 deep when it comes out to see how much youth there is on the team. One freshmen I am anxious to see is a freshmen TE that is listed as 6'5 235, might be great might not be but you can't teach 6"5 so he surely will provide some mismatches.

Interesting UMHB article in the Killeen Daily Herald: http://kdhnews.com/sports/college/umhb/umhb-counting-on-inexperienced-players/article_d97336b4-14b4-5d2d-a783-b9fd0623dd50.html

Yeah, just read the TDT version. Some key points:

Senior receiver Marcus Wimby serving a one game suspension for violation of team rules. Haven't guys figured this out yet?
Oline may not have many substitutions until experience is gained. Seems like the reserves last year should have been ready to step up.
Of the four guys playing in the secondary, only three starts, and all by one guy.
Sophomore free safety Jaedon Johnson who had 9 starts last year is not on the 2-deep.
Only 30 guys have made their way back into the varsity locker room. I love it.
Watch out for the wreckingCRU defense!!

Did anyone listen to the radio show tonight? I wish they would record these or provide a transcript at least. TLU does this really well, and I don't understand how they can't get this done.

"...provide a transcript at least."   That line brings to mind a bunch of tacky one-line retorts.   ;D   ;)

I found the following Ohio Wesleyan recruiting video online. It is from last year, but gives some insight into the program. I share it FYI: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M2Cz_ruX1T8

It looks like the Battling Bishops have some nice facilities.

Go CRU!
