Nice schedule.

[dgreco]

good schedule. I guess the GT game balances out the DII game.

[terrierbob]

Any SoCon games scheduled next few years?

Not sure, we had one this year, yet was dropped for LSU... Obviously a no- brainer decision...

[Keeper]

Knowing that Tusculum is home and GT away,
is there official word on the other home contests?

[nwFL Griz]

Sam Houston, Presby, VMI, Coastal are all home.

My only question is the Tenn Tech game....where is that being played?

[TexasTerror]

We are very happy that Gardner-Webb and Sam Houston State are in a home-and-home. This is an opponent that we are all looking forward to at Sam...

GWU will have a great quarterback coming in. 4,000+ passing yards and 52 TD's as a senior in high school. Amazing. will be interesting to see how he does.

Do you guys have a returning QB that has some mileage in the tank? Or are you going to be starting a youngin'?

They will probably start Stan Dolittle who would be the most experienced and knows the system. They are known for running a two quarterback system though, so I believe the youngin will see allot of time also...

The bio of the Incoming freshman is impressive though...

[Sly Fox]

Hey, perhaps I will catch the game next season with the Dawgs come down to Huntsville.

G-W should be right in the hunt in the Big South.

[GWalum]

What became of the Miami (OH) game we heard whispers of? Is there gossip about potential opponents for the open date at season's end?

[Libertine]

I'm guessing CSU took the Miami (OH) date. They've got the Redhawks on 9/13.

[Thumper250]

No other FBS games in 2008 that I've heard of. I think they're square on 11 games.

Doolittle will be your starting QB. The OL should be an improved group too, so that'll help. Dobson Collins is a 50-catch guy at receiver and a conference champion hurdle man. I think the key for their offense is finding a second true threat at WR and getting SO runner Patrick Hall the ball a lot on the ground.

Defense, well they lost a great one in Johnston. I'm hearing third round on him now NFL draft wise, so that's a loss. All the LB are back, and all the secondary are back. The front four needs some work, but they should be scrappy.
