Thoughts on state of MU football

Here is your opportunity to sound off. What are your thoughts on Mark Snyder being retained as Marshall University head football coach? I have my opinions and will share, but I’d like to read your responses first. Feel free to vent either way. Thanks in advance.

Marshall-ECU gameday setting

Skies are brilliant blue here in Greenville, N.C., making for an ideal setting for today’s Marshall-East Carolina football clash. Interestingly, both ESPN’s Kirk Herbstreit and collegefootballnews.com predict a Thundering Herd upset. What’s your call?

Marshall-UAB pre-game scene

Conditions are ideal and Legion Field predictably is nearly empty about 10 minutes from Marshall-UAB kickoff. Not much pre-game news beyond Chubb Small starting at tailback and Chad Schofield replacing Josh Evans at left guard.

Schofield to start

Chad Schofield tentatively will start at left guard in place of Josh Evans Saturday at UAB, according to Marshall football coach Mark Snyder at his weekly press conference. Right guard Jimmy Rogers and right tackle Daniel Baldridge also are expected to earn extended playing time.

Edwards Stadium snowed out

Friday night’s scene appears promising for a true ‘White-Out’ for Marshall-Cincinnati. Edwards Stadium’s East Side student section is all-white and tailgaters in the West Lot were snowed out. I questioned a foursome wearing off colors and they assured me that it merely was tailgating gear; they were all pulling on white for the game. For those who can’t be here or folk who can access this blog via your crazy cell phones, let’s hear final thoughts pre-game.

It's Game Day -- Let's talk Coal Bowl

OK everyone, it’s finally Coal Bowl game day. Let’s start off by talking about your viewing experience today. Are you heading to/in Morgantown or watching from home or a friend’s home with a group. What are your plans to watch Marshall/WVU and again, playing off the previous blog which received strong response (thanks much), what is your feel for this game? Everybody have fun and thanks in advance.

WVU predictions sought

OK, it’s West Virginia week and this clearly is the most intriguing Coal Bowl thus far with Marshall at 3-1 and WVU surprisingly struggling at 1-2. Let’s get this started early in the week; what are your predictions/thoughts on Saturday’s game?
