[GoRMU]

We have not had many discussions about RMU football for a while on this site. It's almost July, in another month players will be reporting for camp. Just to throw out a few possible topics: Have there been many players on campus this summer working out? If so, anyone standout in the weight room
or otherwise working hard? Anything new or unexpected regarding roster additions or deletions? RMU lost its two best players on defense to graduation and maybe another to transfer, but some JUCOs have been added, is it reasonable to expect a much-improved defense this year? The QB position looks to be up for grabs, that is always is a favorite topic for every football fan, let's get some talk going. What about the coaching staff, is this a coaching staff that can move this program in the right direction?

Looks like the most depth at QB in a long, long time.

D should be better with getting the right guys for the system and a year of learning what the coaches want and expect for each role.

Have a couple of great TEs and RBs, think pretty deep at WR and Online should be improved.

I think .500 for year should be the the lowest expectation, anything above would be great. Seems like the guys are excited and they already have at least one commitment for next year which is good news. He is from Gonzo's high school I think.

Looks like there may be a couple coaching staff openings or a reshuffling of duties.

There are new job postings for an offensive line coach/run-game coordinator as well as for a cornerbacks coach.

My first post on forum. Been reading posts and following football program for a couple years now. No expert on football and certainly no expert on posting comments. I just thought this forum needs more participation. Here it is!

There has been a lot of turnover and new infusions into f/b program. Well needed and appreciated. One thing I would like to see come along this year, and I believe hurt program in last few years, is more ball control and better time management on offense.

I have been concerned with the defenses inability to stop other teams and eventually turning a close game into a blow out. I am seeing where a lot of that scoring could have been deterred by a little more time spent on offense. Not going for home runs but bunting and taking what defense gives you.

I would just like to see closer more competitive games this year, even if only a 2-3 win season.

Thanks for posting. I am an awful poster poster but love RMU. Nobody will be rude to you here.
