What areas do we need to improve on to help prepare us for next season? Here is my Christmas list. Transfer QB to add depth (maybe even a starter) Offensive Line to add depth Defensive Line to add depth and experience LB’s to add depth and maybe even a starter (loss Stuckey) DB’s (faster and stronger) added depth (injuries hurt us) Depending who leaves (transfer portal). QB coach Special Teams coach Grad assistants Extra Strength and Conditioning support Better communication from the Admin and Chancellor. Community involvement (fan support just like the GW game) Academic Support (more help for the student athletes) Nutritionist Are we really going to get any of these things for Christmas? That means Earl and Martin will have to spend money. Someone had enough to buy Coach Washington’s contract out but not the funds to really help take care of the players they have. These are some of the things the kids would like. If you want to compete in the CAA then you better spend some money or just be a doormat.

My real hope is for the bottom half of your list because it is infrastructure. The top half will take care of itself with coaching.

I have the strong suspicion we will check whichever boxes Coach Brown said we need to check, and in the order he said we need to check them.

When will we get to 8-3 or even 6-5? I think there will be a lot more 3-8s than 8-3s for a LONG while. A sample schedule will look something like this year-in and year-out going forward. 1. FBS 2. FCS/(D-II?) 3. NC Central 4. ELON 5. Campbell 6. Hampton 7. William & Mary 8. Monmouth 9. Townson 10. Richmond 11. Delaware Pretty close. Wish we played Monmouth but no W&M. Don't wanna see them

Do you all even know what we have for academic support?
Additionally, what more do you all want from the Coach communication wise? Brown was in Bluedeath and Aggie Pride Cast.
He sends out tweets, they are active on social media!!! I am really confused on what people want?
At this point you all are complaining just to be complaining.

Who here is complaining? Who has even said anything negative about Brown since he was hired?

I don’t think anyone is complaining. I know we had kids suspended for academics. What did we do to support these young men? I heard we have one academic advisor for athletics. I was wondering if this is correct? Going to class is on the guys and not the coaches.

There is language in Brown's contract that says we need to hire more academic advisors, so obviously that is an area of concern.
