Thursday--September 26, 2013

The UMass Football Alumni Group has a petition for Coach Molnar to change his methods.  I was never a fan of making players pound on each other in practice. If you're playing organized football, you're tough by definition. High contact drills just lead to injuries.

Dan Malone has a recruiting post and an injury report. I'll deal with the recruiting in a separate blog post.

Stacey Bedell, Lorenzo Woodley and Trey Seals will be back for the Bowling Green game. Shakur Nesmith is listed as probable. 

LB Steve Casali is listed as questionable and Joey Colton will miss at least a few weeks with a slight tear in his MCL.

Bedell, Woodley and Nesmith represent a substantial portion of the Minutemen's offensive firepower. Having them back should keep opposing defenses from concentrating on Tajae Sharpe and Rob Blanchflower.

The Muncie Star-Press has a MAC Football notebook.


The Daily Chronicle has MAC teleconference notes.
