Re: Hampton Pirates on the horizon

I watched them play Richmond. Hampton should not be overlooked. They are way better than NC A& T. Hens start this game slow at their own peril.

Injuries

I know that UD Football is very tight lipped about injuries- HIPA and other reasons, but I will still inquire about them. I believe Hunter was injured during the game Saturday. Looked serious as he was placed on a stretcher and left by ambulance. Looked bad. Hoping the young man is well. Any confirm...

Re: Future of UD Football Poll

I like (real) Playoffs. I like starting each season with at least the possibility of winning a National Championship. I like the prospect of knocking off one of the "big boys" of College Football every once in a while. I do not like college football on Weekday nights. I do not like meanin...

Re: Future of UD Football Poll

We are not ready at this time. However, I believe we are exploring the move to FBS. When we are competing for a National Champions in the FCS on a regular basis we will have some choice as to where we will end up. Schools that have made the move were in the FCS championship hunt before they moved. ...

Re: parking lot

We were there on Saturday. We did not even attempt to put up our canopy. Way too windy. We just tailgated without it. We all looked like the Stay-Puff Marshmallow man in our rain gear. We kept the food in the trunk and hydrated with beer while standing. Wind would likely have damaged any canopy.

Re: Haley: Hens a Top 10 Team

A really good and exciting win on Saturday, but I think it's way too early to believe that poll (or any poll for that matter). Let the season play out and we'll see where we are in November.

Re: Wash Out!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LFf6Mw0DgcY BHB for the win!!!! We certainly are an interesting species. :lol: Notice the melody of the riff they chanted to. Back in the early 70's we chanted "go Fightin" Blue Hens" to that Woodstock riff. The other riff that got played during the 70...

Injuries

Any word on Hunter and Marker- I saw Hunter on the sideline yesterday with some kind of boot. Could not find Marker.

Re: FBI PSU (minus the "F")

I have no problem with scheduling FBS games, just be strategic and realistic about it. I did not go to Happy Valley, but I did go to the Navy game and before that the game at Pitt. They are a great opportunity to travel.

Re: FBI PSU (minus the "F")

Great post Big R. While I saw nothing positive about the game as did Carty, perhaps individual UD players did take something from that game. Apparently, few injuries, so that's a HUGE positive. Delaware did its part by accepting the butt-kicking they were paid for. The comparatively paltry $400k wi...

Re: FBI PSU (minus the "F")

Great post Big R. While I saw nothing positive about the game as did Carty, perhaps individual UD players did take something from that game. Hopefully what ever they did take away will motivate them for the rest of their careers. I think Wayne Hanby made an excellent point in reminding us all of the...

Re: Game Thread: Penn State

Don't we have another game scheduled with PSU say 2027- Chrissi should wipe that off our GD schedule. This was beyond a total embarrassment. I disagree. If Carty can’t build us up into a really good program by 2027, then we have the wrong leader. I believe Carty has moved the program forward and wi...
