  • Curious whether any other folks think that a few folks bombing the board with negative comments are trolls for the former Coaching staff?  If they aren't coordinated and intentional trolls, they are still doing a good job of bleeding negativity all over this Board just as well as paid trolls...

    There is another Marshall message board I generally avoid that these posters would fit in really well with..
    I don't like to lose, and that isn't so much because it is just a football game, but because defeat means the failure to reach your objective. I don't want a football player who doesn't take defeat to heart, who laughs it off with the thought, 'Oh, well, there's another Saturday.' The trouble in American life today, in business as well as in sports, is that too many people are afraid of competition. The result is that in some circles people have come to sneer at success if it costs hard work and training and sacrifice.- Knute Rockne

  • It's the same two emotional babies who embarrass themselves in every thread by posting the same thing every time.

  • Part of Herd Faithful .... but I am out .... the MU hiring scheme is atrocious ..... when TG retires the next wv coaching hotbed is in Frankfort, Wv.  Herd beats Huntington HS in the battle of wv boys in OT.  Embarrassing is canceling a bowl game and going from first to not close to first a year later bc many of your best players transferred to a conference rival G5.

    Grassie obviously doesn't need any additional NIL.  He's doing just fine.  We just won a Championship in football.  Coach left.  We have a new coach.  Most every college team has a bunch of players to replace.  your bitching will not help.

  • Saw the Ohio-Jax bowl today.  Said Jax had 17 players enter portal.  16 of them stayed and played in the bowl before leaving.  I guess dickrod didn't tell his players not to play the game, that being the main difference between us and other teams that lost their coach, that people can't seem to grasp.  They were down 27-7 to Ohio and came back to only lose by 3, 30-27.   That's what you get when you're coach isn't a vindictive SoB that moved down instead of up.  And that's the difference between us and all those other schools that lost their coach.  They all got promoted and ours got demoted.  The other ones that were fired didn't make a bowl.

    So the players are mindless zombies that can't make their own decisions? Who cares what he said. Do you do everything someone tells you? If a boss on the way out told you to quit would you just say ok and do it? These players have their own brains and are responsible for their own decisions. If masses of them are leaving...they feel they have a reason to.

  • Crazy thing is Micdrass used to be one of my favorite posters.  This did a number on them.  There are about 3 more on the board that are miserable also. You know who you are.

  • Well Rich Rod went up a level so likely not too many Jax St guys end up at wvu.

    Now, when you let a coach go to conference mate for similar money and said conference mate has weak roster you have to see this coming. Did our administration not?

  • How any Marshall fan can be a beacon of positivity and not ashamed, embarrassed, disgusted, and nearly over it...during one of (and likely) THE biggest botches and fumbles of multiple situations in a 3 weeks span in Marshall Athletics history is beyond me. Spears will go down as the worst AD in our lifetime.

    After growing up on campus, befriending numerous Marshall players as a kid, hanging out in their dorms, living in the Cam Henderson Center (walking the halls daily for years), having season tickets, and scheduling my life around Marshall sports while being a hard core fan for 40 years I would say I'm officially done, no longer a fan, and am just posting the last few times to vent.

    I feel bad for all of us. I know there's another few thousand just like me who can't take it anymore. Following this poorly run program, run by imbeciles, has been such a massive waste of time and energy.

    **Looks like this is my 3000th post. Crazy. I think I'm going to stop right here. Wish y'all the best.***

    This board is polluted with negativity, big egos and hurt feelings about old arguments.  i venture they maybe 10-20% of the posts are positive in general. 

    Right now there?s been some controversy and major changes have happened, so I get it?s chaotic and there are a wide variety of thoughts about what has happened. 

    However we won a championship in football and almost won a national championship in soccer and it didn?t change the negativity.

    Like I said on another board, I truly hope some people?s lives get better and they overcome whatever is making them miserable.

  • If Huff and Sherrod Everette need trolls on the Marshall Board, they have some willing volunteers. If every statement you make is negative, maybe you should take a long break... Can't imagine being that miserable.

  • what i find comical (or extremely obnoxious) are the bold predictions and the matter-of-fact statements about all things Marshall sports and beyond.  we've seen the success rate on most of those bold predictions and the hilarious outcomes!

  • I still can't get the idea that one person on here can judge the happiness of another by whether or not they agree on the circumstances facing this university right now. How does anyone claim the right to be right, and to judge others wrong without facts.  If you have actual facts, post them; convince others that their view is inaccurate due to facts; not your own opinion. This "holier than thou" shix is getting old.  If any of us knew "in fact", we'd state it.  But we apparently don't. So why bitch, moan, and ostracize others for them being upset and challenged by all this.

    Time will calm souls, just maybe let it be.

  • My best take is this. I luv Marshall. Nothing will ever change that and I will root a million times harder for a coach that truly cares about our beloved university than himself. Because fact is NO ONE COACH OR PERSON is bigger than what this university stands for. I have been a Herd Fan for over 50 years and I never remember a coach being this divisive and trying to pit fans against the program and trying to destroy Marshall loyalty. Just my opinion. It is heartbreaking. But, it is time to move forward, and WE WILL.

    Ummmm... No.

    Does anyone truly enjoy that boring a$$ sport? I've tried to watch both of the natty games and fallen asleep both times. It's like marriage. Arguing back and forth and no one ever scores.
