Predictions

Coaches are on vacation, meaning we're truly in the offseason. Let's eat up some time with record predictions for the coming season. Will Marshall end a run of four straight losing records? The schedule sets up better compared to recent years, but still the team has to produce. What do you think?

Talking newcomers

Spring practice has wrapped and it’s time to focus on upcoming summer workouts and August preseason camp. Let’s start with this: which newcomer to you foresee delivering the largest impact? I’m going wide receiver-heavy right now with junior college transfer Wayne Bonner and true freshman Aaron Dobson. Yes, I’m leaving out Huntington’s C.J. Crawford for now, but that’s more because his position is uncertain.

Reactions to Marshall, Bembry arrests

It’s been the talk of the town since news broke early Saturday morning. What are your thoughts on last weekend’s arrests of Darius Marshall and DeQuan Bembry? It’s a tough subject but deserves banter as evidenced by that is the lone thing I’ve been asked about for two days. Innocent until proven, of course, but what are your reactions? At the same time, feel free to ask any other Marshall football questions.
