At least our home conference schedule should soften next year haha. Wow that’s a murderer’s row if ECU keeps improving.

Won’t be surprised if Memphis and Tulane have new coaches next season. Gotta think Silverfield and Sumrall will both be sought after during this cycle, especially the former.

That 2026 schedule might be even harder than this year’s.
At least as things stand now.

Even if the team is much improved in 2026 that might not translate into Ws.

Wonder how much they’ll go up on season tickets prices next season hosting Ole Miss, Navy, ECU, Memphis, and Tulane? Chance we could host multiple ranked teams next season.
Almost a certainty that we’ll host multiple ranked teams.
Then use that as recruiting bait. We’re going to be playing the best and you can come here and show you’re the best too by beating these ranked opponents!! GO NINERS!!!

Yup most programs would be ecstatic having those kinds of opponents at home.

And they will say I don’t care who you play but how much can you pay me?

Agree but I just wish we could be competitive to make it interesting.
that said I’m planning on going to Oxford in a couple years just for the experience. Hell I’ll be retired, why not?
