@Kcmatt7 I honestly don’t think facilities are as big anymore. Guys only want the big checks they don’t care about the venue near as much as 10 years ago IMO. Kids don’t care about a fancy scoreboard or locker room anymore they just want the biggest check they can get. Edwards is the prime example of that. He will go wherever the biggest check is as will 90% of collegiate athletes in 2026.

@Kcmatt7 fair points but you have to be good in FB and BB to be a successful AD at this level. Instead of spending a $300 million donation on competitive players it was blown on facilities for one sport.
Agree to disagree. A lot more nuance than that to it. Facilities are an important part of remaining competitive.
And the old one was literally falling apart. It’s not like all that was AD money either. We had opportunities with ARPA and other funds to make it pencil. Not like any of it could’ve gone to NIL anyway.

I really want to like LL and think he is a decent coach but this broken record playing the last 3 years is unacceptable. We are a D1 power conference football team that can’t even successfully execute a punt 50% of the time.

@kjayhawks2.0 Thanks, like I knew what you were going to say but wanted to hear it for sure! I do think he's lost some of his fire and may just be like other guys my age who say screw it, this system we're in is just dumb. I can't keep guys at one of the 2 or 3 best programs in the land and have to go after guys who've played in 3 different states in 3 years and hope they come here and are somehow better than they were at St johns and Wisconsin and Narnia St and at Puff the Magic Dragon U of Honalee.

The question becomes how much longer can we have Marshall playing QB? 13 for 30 against Missouri and 12 for 26 against KSU. I warned myself and everyone else of growing pains but dang his season completion percentage has now dropped below 50%.

I think you’ve got to let him finish the season at this point and see if there is any progress. Nothing to gain from playing any the other guys as far as the future is concerned.
