Must have been an innocent bystander that he hit, with the trouble he had in connecting with his receivers this past year.

I agree....He wasn't to impressive on the football field.

could be that they never ever ever ever ran the ball...


defense were dropping 9 people in coverage on the dude....

The pendulum always seems to swing too far in both directions, not only in method and play, but in attitudes. What we need most is common sense and balance.

Where was John Jett this season? I thought after last season he would really tear it up as a senior. Did he play any where else?

[R. A.™]

@ Stephen f. Austin

[Cotton_Top]

Unless I missed something, Jon Jett is not listed on the football roster at Stephen F. Austin.

Does this mean HSU didn't release him or does it mean that he just didn't play?

[hsu1]

he didn't want to play.  he quit year before last when branch was here but was talked into coming back.  this time they let him go.

[Cotton_Top]

As I remember it, the reason he quit under Branch was that he had been promised a certain amount of scholarship money, and they weren't coming through. He kept asking about it, and they kept putting him off, so one day he packed up and left. When he came back, they smoothed it over and made up some kind of story to let everybody off the hook.

The last time was during all the screaming, cussing, in your face, running off period.

[hsu1]

it never seemed to bother him.  the coaches liked him and he was first on the depth chart.  i never got a chance to talk to him really after he quit since i didn't see him but more than one person on the team said that he simply didn't want to play football and go to college with his brother at sfa.  i think you're reaching to tie that to the coaches.  theres plenty others that you don't have to try to connect so use those if you want to complain about the coaches.

If that's true, why did he quit either during or immediately after practice? If he simply wanted to go to school with his brother, why did he suit up and practice in the first place?

The first I learned about it was from someone who had practiced WITH him and who told me he had quit that day. Every day, there was somebody new who had quit after practice. I think you're reaching to say it wasn't connected to the coaches. If other members of the team gave you that story, it probably was because it was the "official" story.

[footballfan-tastic]

I don't think Jett could have played at SFA, that would be a move up and the NCAA says no, no.   I think the coaching situation probably had at least something to do with it.  If he were comtemplating quitting, then the methods of the new staff would likely not have helped.

[footballfan-tastic]

I forgot to stay on topic.  So what is the deal on King?  Arrested, what for couldn't hit a garbage can with a beer can?

If you look back, the pro-Maxfield group have said some things that would lead you to believe that he's playing at SFA. It's to their advantage that you think that.

As for the Dane King situation, he was highly touted, didn't exactly pan out, was here today, gone tomorrow, and I'm predicting many more like him to come.

We talked about this a year ago.  Why does a DI player come to a DII like HSU, unless he is not going  to play at the school he is leaving.  It just doesn't make much sense.

[R. A.™]

Why does a DI player come to a DII like HSU, unless he is not going to play at the school he is leaving.

Exactly, that is why some DII schools call DI schools at the end of the season to see who is unhappy and who is leaving and recruited those players. heck look at Jay Austin who left University of Florida to come to UAM! and UAM was NAIA at the time, so how about a jump from the SEC to AIC?

[hsu1]

you forget that exorcist obviously is the football guru on this site.  he knows anything related to football.  in addition to being a football mastermind, he's also psychic and knows the reasons why everyone does what they do.  too bad he's not a the hsu coach.  national champs in his first year for sure.

[footballfan-tastic]

LOL, nah, maybe in the second.  You guys take this way too personal.  The site is to discuss or express you thoughts on what ever subject you choose about footballl in arkansas.  I do that, and so do you.  Because I don't agree with you you choose to poke fun, that's ok.  I can take it.   I appreciate the compliment, however tongue in cheek you meant it. 

[footballfan-tastic]

ON this subject, just this morning I had a freind, alumni at HSU call me and discuss the recruits this year.  I am by no means coming up with ideas or opinions not shared, nor formed with out lots of conversation with others.  I just post the consensus of many, many freinds and people I talk with.  So when you post your ideas, I just say hey, here is what I am hearing and thinking.  Want it to change, change the opinions of alot of people.
I fully understand players transfering, they want to play.  I am saying can we win with someone else's leftovers?  Would it not be better to find players to build around over several years?  When you have a big cut, you get stitches because a bandaid won't stop the bleeding.  Oopps, I philosophized. sorry.

[footballfan-tastic]

good deal.  You know you can be passionate about something and not make it personal.   My momma told me that.

[hsu1]

i'm not taking it personal.  i just like being a smart rump sometimes.   

[footballfan-tastic]

Don't we all!  Especially when we fill strongly about something.

[footballfan-tastic]

Im curious is the young man that got signed out of Greenbrier, related to coach Maxfield, I figure that's not that common a name.  There was no real info on him except name and school.

[hsu1]

i bet everyone is asking that right now.  who knows.  maybe maxfield signed him just so everyone will ask that.  lol

[footballfan-tastic]

So nobody knows?

[Sticker]

No one cares, except you.

[Cotton_Top]

i bet everyone is asking that right now. who knows. maybe maxfield signed him just so everyone will ask that. lol

I wouldn't be surprised.

[wawa111]

is anyone surprised about this...HSU is nothing but a huge group of THUGS...it seems like every other day they are getting in trouble...The NCAA needs to give them the DEATH PENALTY, and just put them out of their misery...

[hsu1]

we still stomped uam's rump so you can't talk crap.  37-7 ring a bell???  oh yeah and the 7 for ya'll was against our 3rd team d.

[footballfan-tastic]

Boy, good thing we beat UAM, what an accomplishment.   This is just were we don't want to have to be, bragging on beating a UAM.

[hsu1]

yeah i know it's bad but what else can you do when a uam fan is talking crap??

[footballfan-tastic]

Let's just hope they don't beat us, then where are we left.  I was told, didn't look at their list, that they got a bunch of jucos as well?

[hsu1]

well you've said yourself that isn't the way to go

[footballfan-tastic]

Oh, did I say that?   Two teams full of jucos, they could start their own juco league.   

[eray]

I think Fearless Friday should give you the penalty for the misery you give us for posts like that!

[wawa111]

HSU will not beat UAM this year...mark it down...won't happen...then all ya'll will have to talk about is what trouble the players have gotten in...

[hsu1]

37-7

[footballfan-tastic]

Is that the first game this year?

[wawa111]

I believe so...here save some time HSU1.........i'll post it for you


37-7.....woooo whooooo....yes you beat us last year...

[hsu1]

oh yeah and 37-7

[footballfan-tastic]

How many players are going to be on the roster at HSU as of today.  When do they start running off the excess.   I really think this is terrible, but it seems to be a juco type thing.  Bring in way more than you can pay for, let them fight it out and then run off what you no longer want.   Classy, baby, classy.

[hsu1]

i think most of who we isn't coming back are already gone.

[footballfan-tastic]

HSU, you got any names of who isn't coming back and the reason.  Or is it they just weren't good enough? 

[hsu1]

i know of a couple that aren't coming back but not sure of the reason.  i'm glad about a couple cause they weren't team players and had attitudes.  some weren't coming back cause they didn't get much playing time.

[oldreddie]

When I played, on the last day of two a days, coach Berry would hang 33 scholarships on the goalpost and line up everyone who was left at the other end of the field and then blow his whistle.  Whoever made it back to the dressing room with the "paper" got a scholarship.

[footballfan-tastic]

I quess that saves the coach from having to make a decision.  Don't think that would work too well these days.  If you got half a piece did you get half a scholarship.?

[hsu1]

lol ahh the good ole days
