If I were a special teams coach, I would be studying Indiana's punt coverage. They blocked 4 (if my google search is correct) this season which is remarkably high.

Perhaps we could swap notes with them - punt coverage for onside kicks.

Amen to that.

One more for Reed…American Bowl.

January 22nd on the NFL Network. 8:00 pm.

Announced on Hens social media this week.

My impression of Cignetti is that his strong suit is as a game manager who takes the long view of the contest and plans accordingly. He also, along with his staff, makes adjustments as soon as they read the opposition. Carty is not Cignetti nor is his staff particularly adapt at adjustments. Just a...

12 of our Hens were recognized by Phil Steele for all CUSA.

Congratulations to these players who are getting it done on and off the field!

I think that is a “depends”.

It depends on the depth for the position.

It depends on the character of the player.

It depends on how the subject was discussed between player and coach.

We need him to compliment our passing game

Injury. He did not suit up for Sam Houston game.

While everyone is keeping an eye on our offers and portal moves, we have 3 outgoing Hens that will be playing in senior bowls. Fintan Brose : Hula Bowl - January 10th at 12:00 pm on CBS Sports Network. Spec Martin Stadium in Deland, Florida Kyre Duplessis and Nate Reed : Dream Bowl - January 11th at...

Wishing all of our Hens fans much health and happiness in 2026!

Just saw the “bowl challenge” pop up on the screen. Did not know that existed but will keep rooting for our conference mates to have a shot at winning it.

We cannot change the past...but I would love to play Liberty again when they do not have a 17 day rest between games.

Thank you for all of your work and efforts this season! It is always a pleasure to read your “FBI” write ups.

Was at the game and did not hear the broadcast.

Was it as bad as Chris Collingsworth covering a Chiefs game?

They should have a banner or sign of these Bowl victories...with plenty of room for future entrees. I think you are on to something here. There is a lot of wall space under the west stands opposite the concessions and restrooms. Why not capture some history for folks to read and admire while chewin...
