All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
There is work to be done and things to be learned. We are going to try to get the old look back - or something close to it. We also know there are bugs. A thread will be started to report bugs and then we can pass those onto the host.
Thank you for all the patience and support with this - hopefully this will greatly reduce the crashes and other site issues we have had lately.
Please use this thread to report any issues you come across

He has done an excellent job this year, filling in for Takeo Spikes. I hope that he decides to stay and they either play some 3-4 defense next year or use him to replace Jeff Posey's position or split time with Fletcher or Spikes. I have been very impressed with Crowell this year, with what I have seen on defense and even special teams.

I think having Spikes and Crowell on the field together next year will be huge. His stat line isn't quite TKO's level but it's getting close, and he has more big plays than Fletcher.
As far as Posey, the dude never makes a play. When I see him make a tackle, my reaction is usually "96? Who's that? Oh right- Posey. He's still on this team."

It would be a mistake to let this guy go. If Spikes is slowed down by his injury when he returns, he may end up taking Posey's spot and Crowell can stay where he is. Larry Johnson made Posey look like he was standing still on that fumble return. Spikes at 85% is faster than Posey at 100%.
Fletcher showed some life yesterday. I've been calling for his replacement and I still think we should get a future MLB this year, but it may not be as urgent as I thought. We'll see how the rest of the season goes.

Agreed. And as for Posey, he finally made a play yesterday. He returned a fumble for 46 yards and tucked the ball back in, so he didnt fumble it when tackled.

that's true- I should give him credit for that. But seriously, this is a big play D that until this year, thrived off of turnovers and sacks. I don't remember him ever having one.
Those Virginia guys aren't too bad after all.
They have a linebacker now, Ahmed Brooks, who is incredibe. This is his junior year. He has been out most of the year with an offseason injury thing. Has played the last two games.
If that gets worked out, he's a top 10 pick. Butkus award finalist as a sophmore.
If he comes out after this year, with the injury over his head, he'd be a steal.
A true freak. How many players can say the were not only Butkus award finalists as linebackers, but also returned kicks?
Crowell played good yesterday. However, consistency is the key with him. For the season, he has made some real good plays, then gets caught out of position and gives up a big run or two. If he can play more alongs the lines of how he played yesterday, then yeah, he's coming along real nice.

Consistency is very important. Hopefully he will become more consistent as he continues to gain experience.
