Too early to tell.
Letās play the danged game and see if this is all talk or truth. Hell, letās just win it regardless. Kick some butt, take names, and go home.
We can beat JMU with several combinations of players. Iām not going to get all anxious about it until I see that I am wrong. Go Niners!

If we can beat JMU down 9 starters itās going to be a good year.

I donāt believe we are down 9 starters but we will see on Saturday. They have all this week to heal up and get ready. I may be wrong but thatās okay too. I will be there pulling for the Niners regardless.

This is exactly what Biff wanted. JMU running with the news, regardless of if itās true or not.
But if this impacts their preparation, they made a very bad hire as head football coach.
I hope youāre right but Biff is one heck of a poker player if so. That press conference he sounded like a coach that knows heās outgunned (fighting hard, giving it all you got etc). I agree with clt, I donāt like sad Biff haha.
Mac and Bone said he went from being Spurrier last year to Lou Holtz this one with his effusive praise of JMU.
That being said I still think itās near impossible to have that many injuries in camp. Guess weāll find out soon enough.

Exactly what I told one of our big time boosters. He is checking the real scoop. I just donāt believe it is possible to have that many in a preseason. If so, it is an F- if not, good to get the other team off balance.
I doubt the Dukes are running with the news. One thing for a fansite to do so, while quite another to think a 14+ year head coach with just one losing season would do the same.

I donāt know how many actually believe this is some sort of smoke screen, mental jujutsu from Biff and how many simply want that to be the case. If you do, I hope youāre right. Last year Biff overhyped everything and we finished 3-9, so maybe heās going the other way this season lol.
Who isnāt on the depth chart that was released that should be playing a lot?

Donāt think it will impact their preparation but if it gets in the heads of a few 18-23 year old players and they think this should be an easy win it could help. Not saying that was Biffās intent. If it was a smokescreen I think it was more about playing the game they are playing by not naming a starting qb than it was about really trying to get an advantage.
A lot of schools are waiting until GameDay to announce the starting qb. Thatās a common practice. If Biff is countering by smoke screening fake injuries then to me thatās very stupid. Just trust your team and what you have prepared for all summer long and play the game in the field.

Time will tell how good a college coach Biff is but one thing is for certain. He is a promoter and knows how to get media talking about Charlotte. Old adage of no such thing as bad publicity certainly has some truth to it. No way weād be talked about this much if he comes out and says heās optimistic and looking forward to getting out there to show the fans a great season. Maybe thatās what 150 of us on a message board want to hear but thatās not big picture. We shall see in a few daysā¦ For me, I just want something good to happen to Charlotte and hoping this season can bring some momentum.
Go Niners!
