Of course, though the article doesn't say it, one thing that made them Georgia Southern is that they were I-AA/FCS.
Which is it? Is the Sun Belt basically a glorified FCS league or is Georgia Southern struggling because we're FBS? You have to pick one.
I think that if Georgia Southern was as good as it typically was in I-AA/FCS it would not be struggling in the Sun Belt.
Well, I believe that I must tell the truth
And say things as they really are
But if I told the truth and nothing but the truth
Could I ever be a star?

It's official. Chad Lunsford has been named as the new Georgia Southern Head Coach.

App, get ready to say goodbye to Scott Sloan. :mrgreen:

The Battle of the Bottom of the Barrel is this week. GaSou (2-9) vs Coastal Carolina (2-9). Should be a real barn burner.

Well since a former App player and assistant had a part in extending that team from Atlanta's (real GSU? :mrgreen: ) recent dominance of you, I guess you might owe us one. :lol:

With Summers ejection, it didn't quite turn into a dumpster fire. You will see a vast improvement in 2018.

It hopefully will be announced today, but Sloan will be the DC. Don't be so nonchalant, Sloan is/was your recruiting coordinator. He was very effective, especially in Georgia.
Lunsford was RC for us for years, as was Vic Cabral, and with the addition of Sloan, our recruiting will be top notch. The big question no is who will be OC. Rumor is that it's between Alex Atkins and Bob Debeese.

Take what you will from this. If you have some past numbers handy I'd be curious to see them. Having Thursday night games doesn't help us much either.
