PR Department = JOKE
On one hand, I get your point, but on the other hand...what are they supposed to be promoting? Longest losing streak in the history of our program (previous record was 14 games in a row in '43 and '44). Maybe that we've allowed 0 blocked punts this season (along with 76 other FCS teams) and our punt return defense is currently 11th in the FCS (those are literally the only positives I see on the stat sheet).4EverPurple&Gold wrote: ↑Wed Oct 18, 2023 1:11 pm I am sorry... but this is not acceptable... someone needs to address this.

We're in the triple-digit rankings (out of 122 teams) for total offense and defense, rushing offense and defense, passing defense (actually 26th in passing offense), scoring defense (our scoring offense is all the way up at 94th). I think they're probably having to do quite a bit of "reaching" to find anything positive to talk about.

I just feel like we should just not talk about stats and do two options.ST_Lawson wrote: ↑Wed Oct 18, 2023 1:33 pmOn one hand, I get your point, but on the other hand...what are they supposed to be promoting?

1. Just focus on promoting games and tweeting live updates
2. Share some feature stories about some of the players
I like the feature stories idea, but would that be difficult on this platform? I don't use X so I'm not familiar with it, but didn't it have a character limit as Twitter?4EverPurple&Gold wrote: ↑Wed Oct 18, 2023 3:29 pmI just feel like we should just not talk about stats and do two options.ST_Lawson wrote: ↑Wed Oct 18, 2023 1:33 pmOn one hand, I get your point, but on the other hand...what are they supposed to be promoting?
