So this is Elliot's second go round. Here's to hoping he is addressing some player issues we all witnessed during the season last year. (ie. penalties, penalties, penalties!!! ;) jc

The video boards are back up at Hanson Field.

Football has a new slogan for 2019: "Dangerous & Relentless".

This has been their slogan since Elliott was hired. Probably just now getting around to putting it in the stadium. I'm assuming that's where you saw it based on the post. That being said, I think the philosophy of the new DC will make this a description, not just a slogan. Really liking what I'm hearing so far, looking forward to seeing it Friday night!

Not the end of the world, but why are we the only team in the conference who doesn't update their roster for the spring? I know it's just a spring roster and we have enough people following who's left/leaving and who's here, but just curious as to why. I like to see the updates on new faces, possible position changes, and even something as simple as a number change.

Again, not a huge deal, but something I'd like as a fan.

Completely agree! Have said numerous times before, we really lack any Marketing for our sports teams. And things that could be easily cared for, like an updated roster online. They say they will have roster sheets at the Spring game. I'll try and remember to get a picture of one to post on here for those who can't make the game.
