Anyone have any idea if WCCB will pick up any of the Stadium broadcasts this year? Particularly the 3:30 games?
Our overall schedule is tough but the home opponents outside of Maryland aren’t that daunting. Be nice to go 5-1 at home this season.
Healy hasn’t been stellar on the road, but he wins at home, often.
Predict 1-5 on road, 4-2 at home. It’s not what I want, but that road schedule is difficult. If we are going to bowl, Healy has to figure that out.
If he goes 5-7 im not sure he will get to “figure it out”.

Just realized our Georgia St game in Atlanta is one day after the greatest live band in the world “The Killers”. What a weekend!!
The Braves play at home that weekend too. If you’re so inclined.
Yup. I love Healy but if he goes 5-7 or worse it’s time to look in a different direction. That would be 3 straight losing seasons (2 if you give a pass on the COVID year). With stadium expansion and conference change we desperately need to win games and get some excitement around this program.
We obviously need Reynolds to stay healthy and lots of improvement on defense. I think we get enough to go 6-6 or 7-5 if we can play better on the road.

The problem is the schedule gets tougher going forward and you have a 6th year QB that is excellent this year. You’d better win because it’s only going to get tougher.
I think anywhere from 5-7—>7-5 is the range, will be surprised if higher or lower than that.
For his sake and ours we’d better go bowling this year.

No way Healey and Sanchez both get replaced in the same year. Not happening.

Sanchez gets the boot usless he performs a miracle. Healy get another season unless something is seriously wrong.

I agree. Also depends on how team looks and feels with Will. If they go 5-7 and get blown out in 6 of the 7 or something like that he’s gone. If he goes 4-8 but 7 of the 8 losses are close that might buy him a year.
My gut though says we surprise people and win in football. My guy says basketball will be bad. Hope I’m right and wrong.

The FAU game will tell us what to expect this yr. Win the first one and 7-8 wins could hapoen, lose and could be 4-5 wins

Will Healy brought a lot of optimism hype to this program. A 5-7 season will not put him in the hot seat due to the growing numbers of fans on since he arrived . This is a brutal schedule for us but prepares the team for the conference switch . I think we go 7-5 this year with the upset of Maryland at home .

I think the Maryland upset is a good bet, hopefully we don’t blow FAU out of the water week one and put Maryland on alert. We need them sleeping as the wonder down south.

Agreed, tough schedule. Unless the bottom falls out, Healy is not the problem. The challenge is that we must do our (fans, AD) part and get the stadium expansion done (total first phase: 30k+) after this season. Next year with going to the AAC and expanded stadium (or in progress), recruiting quality should improve dramatically. Healy needs the tools to work with. (BTW, I put little credence in the belief that stadium size has little to do with attracting recruits. When you are the smallest, it most assuredly does.)
