Re: WIU at Illinois (9/8/2018)

Not sure how this game is going to go. A better finish last week and a win would have me feeling more optimistic about a win, but at this point I'm leaning towards ILL. Even though they squeaked out a win against an expected poor team in Kent State, I'm still concerned about our passing game (WR) an...

Re: WIU at Montana State (8/30/2018)

They stepped up and we didn't, but we should have won that game. We miss an extra point and long field goal and they made 2 long field goals and that's the difference. I like the aggressiveness at the end of the half and with Sean not typically making mistakes it made sense, but costs us 3 points. N...

Re: WIU at Montana State (8/30/2018)

Can it just be 8 already???? Picked up the sportspack on Directv, so have it ready to go on 681-1. A few dollars more for the month than the single game on msu's website, but don't have to stream it through Chromecast and worry about interruptions!!!!!! Plus, gives you access to those other regional...

Re: 2018 Team Captains

Baxter over Saunders is kind of a surprise. Riggs was captain in 2016, when they had a defense (Taylor), offense (McGuire/soph) and special team (Baxter/soph) captain. They then rotated the 4th with different seniors I believe. Probably good to have another offensive guy who also plays special team...

Re: 2018 Roster Updates

Roster is updated, but no Delo or incoming freshman Shamar Dillard. Delo is still listed in the student directory, but nothing for Dillard and he's not referencing anything on his twitter about WIU. Has some twitter pics from July 25th and the background could have been the streets of Macomb, but ag...

Re: 3 Weeks from TONIGHT

Anyone have knowledge they can share on who's getting reps where and with which unit on the OL? We know who has the LT locked down.

Same for DL and OLB. Know Saunders and likely Swenson on the first unit, but who else we seeing?

Who has the edge at safety next to Fitz?

Re: Introduce Yourself

One of my favorite memories was when WIU played Youngstown State in 2002. WIU won 19-0. Anyways, best part for me was when Mike Scifres came on to punt. The snap was from YSU's like 45. It went about 10 yards over his head and Scifres ran back, grabbed the ball, juked a defender and launched a punt...

Re: Introduce Yourself

I was at WIU from 2000 to 2005. Grew up a die hard sports fan, but never locked down a favorite college team. Follow and root for Big Ten teams and would say my closest tie would be Wisconsin and would love it if the Illini could put out a decent and consistent product. Well anyways, since 2000 I've...

Re: 2018 Preview - DBs

We look to have some good depth, experience and up and coming potential. If our pressure on the QB is as good as I'm expecting, this unit should do really well. Anyone know if Fontez "tez" Davis is still around? Noticed he like Kelton Edwards from the OL is no longer listed on the roster. ...
