Honestly I knew they were down this year when the JMU guy at hero sports bragged about how that game was competitive for 3 quarters

that one time God's gift to football went whoring around North Carolina for a week then got beat by a toothpaste company.

Also, that one time when some dudes disrespected him by not giving him what he wanted and then he went out and proved those dudes right by losing to a healthy Colgate team.

[Madisonmen]

Bison nation, we were hoping for a rematch but it wasn’t meant to be. The bottom line is we just weren’t that great a team this year. We had a stout defense but they had the propensity to give up big plays. Offensively our run game was inconsistent and our signal caller was uber talented but often made bone headed decisions......five picks today! ( ok, one was a Hail Mary at the end of the half but still )
I think you will take care of business against Colgate but i’m guessing they will make you work for it.
Their defense is just all around good.....their one big stud lineman was in our backfield all day. On offense their Senior running back didn’t hurt us to bad outside but he he pounded it between the tackles moving the chains. He scored three td’s on us when they beat us in the playoffs in 2015! QB is sneaky...ran more on us than I expected and can def throw the timely completions.
Maybe we will see you next year........unfortunately it will prob be with another coach. Good luck!

Not sure what's unfortunate about it. Be better than that two-years-and-out-never-won-with-his-own-players joker. Do you want to build a program or not?

You haven’t heard? He washed out of a POWER FIVE school. Not just anybody can wash out of a POWER FIVE school.

They were never a program and they never will be.

They won one. Good for them.

Any FBS school outside the PAC-12 won’t answer when Jeremy Jorgensen calls. The Bison have kicked the sand in the faces of those who have invited them to play in their sandbox way too many times the past decade and didn’t apologize as they took their lunch money afterwards.

We've won our last 6 FBS games (Kansas, Minnesota, Colorado St, Kansas St, Iowa St, Iowa). Then the Big10 commissioner told its members to stop scheduling FCS teams. Other FCS teams have been able to get some games since then, but not NDSU. Our next one is Oregon in 2 years.

My least favorite part of their dynasty was the fact that the semi final they beat the Bison they had 7 players banned from playing in the championship game due to performance enhancing drugs. Lame ass cheaters who need drugs to beat us once and then forget that tiny detail.

Well boys, I’ve had my fun, prob won’t come on this board again til’ next year. We return 20 of 22 starters in 19’. Hopefully we will make the playoffs again and do some damage this time. I think Colgate might have spared us from a Fardo beat down. We just weren’t that good.

[JMUVtFan]

Well boys, I’ve had my fun, prob won’t come on this board again til’ next year.

Same here, just joined to hear the chatter last week. Unlike you I am not sure I will be coming back next year. Maybe it is the specific threads I read (like this one)....but this one is nothing but a bunch of bashing and bragging. Anyone know of a good NDSU forum with solid conversation about actual football? Maybe a group of people that aren't afraid to talk about actual strengths and weaknesses? Predict game plan? etc.?

In all seriousness, no one thought anyone BUT NDSU would win this year. In fact, I would consider it an extremely poor performance to NOT win the championship this year. Returned basically their whole national championship team from last year. Best of luck to them the rest of the year. I imagine they'll blow everyone out along the way (including Colgate).

Also, why are NDSU fans so bitter about JMU? Genuine question, I mean bitter enough to create this 12+ page thread? I would have thought they would enjoy our company as we are the only other FCS team in the country able to consistently travel well. Makes the title game more enjoyable when both sides show up in my opinion.

[23Bison]

Nobody on here is bitter about JMU! Why would we be? What we dislike for the most part is your former coach and the fans that said JMU is the new standard in FCS and such. You are not and probably never will be as long as NDSU is in division. Sure you may win a title again some day and who knows, you may be the Bison again to get there. Your arrogant former head coach is an idiot! He's just a scam artist and has yet to coach a team full of HIS recruits to anything worth mentioning. 2 years here and gone. 3 years there and gone.

Same here, just joined to hear the chatter last week. Unlike you I am not sure I will be coming back next year. Maybe it is the specific threads I read (like this one)....but this one is nothing but a bunch of bashing and bragging. Anyone know of a good NDSU forum with solid conversation about actual football? Maybe a group of people that aren't afraid to talk about actual strengths and weaknesses? Predict game plan? etc.?

In all seriousness, no one thought anyone BUT NDSU would win this year. In fact, I would consider it an extremely poor performance to NOT win the championship this year. Returned basically their whole national championship team from last year. Best of luck to them the rest of the year. I imagine they'll blow everyone out along the way (including Colgate).

Also, why are NDSU fans so bitter about JMU? Genuine question, I mean bitter enough to create this 12+ page thread? I would have thought they would enjoy our company as we are the only other FCS team in the country able to consistently travel well. Makes the title game more enjoyable when both sides show up in my opinion.

I don't doubt that. Had a blast tailgating in Frisco with everyone last year. Didn't run into a single confrontational person.

[JMUVtFan]

Nobody on here is bitter about JMU! Why would we be? What we dislike for the most part is your former coach and the fans that said JMU is the new standard in FCS and such. You are not and probably never will be as long as NDSU is in division. Sure you may win a title again some day and who knows, you may be the Bison again to get there. Your arrogant former head coach is an idiot! He's just a scam artist and has yet to coach a team full of HIS recruits to anything worth mentioning. 2 years here and gone. 3 years there and gone. Poof, like slut magic he's gone again to ECU after signing a 10 year extension. We can make fun of your program as much as we want and nobody here cares about your's or your fan bases sensibilities.

Yep, never thought much of Houston. Has yet to prove himself as a long term coach. Won a championship with another coaches recruits. The defensive coordinator is the real deal though. Don't remember that particular comment but it does sound a bit cocky. But come on, wouldn't you expect anyone to make a comment like that in the moment? Even if it isn't reality, he did particularly well to market himself. From my perspective, JMU was just a stepping stone in his eyes. The statement was all part of his image and goals. JMU was the standard for 2 years I guess, now it is back to NDSU.

Thought this thread was about a 'dynasty' not general concern/disdain for Mike Houston or the fan base. Must have misread the title....

Never said my feelings or sensibilities were hurt. Was mostly asking for another forum that better suited my needs.

This is a fair comment. I did come off a hard but that was in case a few more JMU fans wanted to come here and whine about this thread. A few threads are good but will probably take most of the week to get into Xs and Os.

Who from staff stays at JMU? Who goes to ECU?

We had a messy coach break up in 2013 but Kleiman stayed and kept the program rolling starting with keeping the current senior class of recruits.

You have to filter through and ignore a lot of the bravado posts. It was the same thing with the MSU fans this week. Honestly, JMU is a good program and is clearly capable of challenging us for the national title every year, that's why you see so much discussion about JMU here. It really is a sign of respect if you think about it.

[BattleBorn]

My favorite moment was the tears on a JMU dad's face when I congratulated him on their semi-final victory. Losing that game sucked hard, but he was one hell of a nice guy, and it reminded me of what it felt like for us back when we appreciated going to Frisco. :hide:

That was also my least favorite moment as it was my dad's final Bison game before his death.

We had a messy coach break up in 2013 but Kleiman stayed and kept the program rolling starting with keeping the current senior class of recruits.

That I do not know but I am not in the loop as much as some people in town. Bob Trott previously came from Richmond, so I am hoping he does not leave with Houston (as I do not think they had previous connections). He has moved around a lot, from position coaching in the NFL to assistant coach/defensive coordinator in 1-A and FCS. So I am not particularly hopeful but it would be nice if they could retain him. If I were AD, I might even consider attempting to have base the head coach decision on the likelihood of him staying.

As far as players leaving, I wouldn't be surprised if a couple do leave. But I am not expecting more than one or two (maybe I'll be wrong). There is an enormous amount of recruiting opportunity on the east coast, so I am not as worried about players leaving as I am about getting a decent coaching staff. With VA Tech/UVA/UNC/ECU/Duke all sucking this year, recruiting isn't a huge concern in my opinion. There is a ton talent around so if anything, I think recruiting should still be fine.

You are aware this is a sports forum right? Smack is talked accordingly because it's a fun part of following sports. Don't pretend we don't talk about "strengths and weaknesses? Predict game plan? etc.?" there are plenty of those threads on this forum as well.

JMU gets special attention because they've done something no other team has done in the past 7 years, beat the Bison in the playoffs. Also because they do silly things too like their Athletic Department makes signs mocking NDSU and their facilities. Their fans do silly things like throw streamers and threaten to boycott Toyota Stadium concession vendors. Some of the news articles about them wrote silly things like suggest they were replacing NDSU as the new FCS Dynasty after winning a single Championship. That gets our attention and gives us something to have fun with in between discussing actual X's and O's.

Chill out. Relax. and have some fun. When game time comes, everyone here in the end appreciates opposing fans and realizes we are all going to the same game and have the right to cheer on their own team. Except Bunny fans and their trash program.

For the time being, JMU has earned a spot with past and current conference rivals as targets of online Bison smack talk. It's an achievement really, and I'd imagine most Bison fans respect JMU for focusing on having a good defense and run game. Other out of conference contenders without that focus who are the target of smack talk have much less respect behind it.

Depends on whether your metric is continuous or discrete. I think Vet is lobbying for discrete, based on championships achieved. Oh and didn't NDSU hold the #1 ranking until JMU knocked them off in the semis in '16? If so then even by your continuous metric it is closer to 1.1 than 1.99.

Meh, details.

Not to rain on a lot of parades. But JMU should be pretty tough next year with the players that are available to come back. Now if they can keep them from leaving and find the staff to coach them up. They will be around yet. I would bet on the being back in the talk next year before Colgate, Austin Peay, UN_ and many other teams.

[TAILG8R]

In short we reserve serious football talk to those teams we are playing the upcoming Sat that are worthy of it. And quite frankly most aren't. See average margin of victory. The fact that this board gives JMU 12 pages of respect is telling and should be seen as just that, respect. Now when you fall off the face of the FCS earth and aren't' relevant in 3-4 years you'll get the same treatment as the others. :)

A lot of teams are in the playoffs "every year". Wake me when someone is a NC contender year in and year out for more than 2-3 years. So far JMU managed to do it for 2 straight years. Their streak can start again next year.

In reality regardless of how/why they ended up in Frisco SHSU's streak could be considered more of a perennial contender than JMU.

I realize that it's en vogue to pile on JMU right now but I think they'll be right there amongst the national contenders next year unless they hire a bunch of tool sheds on their coaching staff. They only have handful of seniors this year. Their beat writer said on The Insiders that they return 22 starters next year (he was counting an injured CB who was out all year but started in 2017 and may have been counting specialists as well). They'll be the CAA favorites again most likely next year.

After the title game last year, we talked with a couple of their fans about seeing them again in Frisco next year (this year). They said they would not be back do to what they were losing for players. So not seeing them still in it at this point to me is probably expected. They will be back and ready for us.

[cbline]

OK, here's my take, and I'll listen to any corrections that others want to make.

I have my doubts about JMU's short-term prospects for success. They lost nine coaches (Houston and eight assistants) from a team that relies on transfers, not a team/program that builds from the ground up. Next year, a whole new staff will be walking into a place that seems to rely on the "quick fix" rather than relying on a culture of winning. I'm not sure that is a recipe for success.

They return 20-21 starters next year. They won’t need a lot of transfers to fill spots. The biggest question will be the new set of coaches and HC.

Right, and then they dropped 2 conference games and exited the playoffs in round 2. I just don't think a team gets better when there is a coaching change, but I could be wrong about that.

JMU Dynasty.........like it never happened!

[GSUsTALON]

WHAT THE H*ll would JMU know about dynasty. They dont understand the definition or concept let alone them being one!

[B. b. bison]

The Seventh Dynasty of Egypt would mark the beginning of the First Intermediate Period in the early 22nd century BC but its actual existence is debated.

I would say JMU football falls in the same bucket.

[BisonHorns]

WHAT THE H*ll would JMU know about dynasty. They dont understand the definition or concept let alone them being one!

The thread is tongue in cheek humor about JMU calling themselves a dynasty after one championship. (Which shouldn't even count because 7 of thier players were doped up when they beat the Bison and couldn't play in Frisco.)

The latest from the JMU board....
"When you read posts like that it really shines a light on the types of people who are NDST fans and just what their daily lives are like. In the end you just kind of feel bad for them.

Remember, these are people with nothing. They live in North Dakota. There is nothing there but basically the one football team that is the center of their universe. Without their string of championships, the suicide rate there would likely be through the roof.

When you read their posts, think about the movie Fargo. It's pretty depressing actually. Which is also a reason I am starting to support a quicker jump to FBS. Even if the JMU - NDST "rivalry" continued, I'm not sure Id want our program associated with theirs.

Oh yaaaah, yuuu betcha!"

I’d like to know what post the JMU fan is referring to and where it was posted. If one “ours” is over there trolling, then we here might have more perspective.

Found this interesting... from their new Coach's Presser:

“This is the Alabama of FCS. We have a great, passionate fan base who wants to be engaged. There’s no other school at this level like JMU. You deserve the best and I embrace the expectations.”

So he is all huff and puff as well. I would say that JMU is the LSU of the FCS at best. Good, talented team that plays second fiddle to NDSU.

What I'm guessing is coming from such a pud program as Elon, he had to try to alpha the place a little bit so he went over the top. Probably could have used some different language so his ass wasn't hanging out there so much but, whatever.

[DCinOK]

Another Friday comment from the Virginia One-hit Wonders...

"In order to win in the Fargo Dome, you have to beat the hell out of the Bizn so that there is no doubt who the better team is. If you are locked in a tight game the refs will make sure the Bizn end up victorious.

No targeting penalties, no late hit penalties, random fair catch interference to give the Bizn the ball back. If this was a neutral site game SDST would be winning."

I must say that their new coach fits right in with the rest of the JMU faithful. It is quite entertaining.

[VirginiaBison]

Since their drug amped game to beat NDSU, its been down hill ... just saying.

HOT TAKE ALERT. JMU goes 7-5 in 2019 and loses in the first round at home to Delaware. Book it!

Remembering back to when this information came to the surface, an important point was raised by at least one poster on here...…………

How many total players were tested? Was it a random sample or was it the entire squad?

[Rock]

Would anyone consider them the Alabama of the rest of the FCS?

I could give some grace if the thought behind is- well yeah besides NDSU, that goes without saying.

They are kinda auburn with cam newton though.

Favorite part was listening and reading all of the East-Coast elitism and snobbery ever since JMU beat us in 2016, and then watching it all vanish and float away into thin air on a crisp early-January afternoon in a suburb of Dallas.

And then after it all vanished, watching them trying to reconstitute back into anything meaningful. Like trying to catch air with a fishing net.

:cheers:

[TAILG8R]

The best part about this is he used a phrase that others outside of NDSU have been using to describe NDSU over the past number of years. Contrast that with Matt Entz's intro press conference.

1) NDSU does not stand up in front of the media or any one else and say "We are the Alabama of the FCS". Others do that for them
2) NDSU doesn't want to be the Alabama of the FCS because NDSU is NDSU
3) You stole pretty well known talking point/descriptor from the most visible program in your division and tried to use it as your own. LOLOLOL
