I agree with you. I disagree with him when he says we're going to the playoffs because there's no way a four-loss team, two of them coming at the hands of Gardner-Webb and Monmouth, is getting an at-large bid.
Those are 2 bad losses, and they are not going away. On the other hand, if we were to win out, we would have 4 quality wins against ranked FCS and an FBS. Add to that the fact that we would have finished the season beating a Coastal team that will probably be ranked no worse than 3rd on national TV, and I would say it is possible.
I'd like to think so. I'm still rooting for them, but why do they always have to make things so dramatic? :?

I'm hoping to face a 1 loss CCU team, beat them and have KSU with only 1 loss win the BSC. How crazy would THAT be? Then voting members would be in a pickle.

He's everything that's wrong with America. "If you're opinion is mean than you might as well keep your mouth shut". No, this is 'Merica where we used to have free speech. Its an opinion and you play a sport. Opinions are a part of the game. Maybe he should spend less time thinking about what othere think and more time practicing so he doesn't lose to Gardner freaking webb or mon freaking mouth.

Woodrum acting like that just shows the problem with this team. This team is gone if theyre focused on a message board. Maybe he should have been a senior leader and had his team focused the last 2 weeks. As much as we gripe on Gill, it is also a captains job as well. Honestly he and this team have it 10x easier than most teams across this country. Just go onto wvu's message board right now and see what the fans think of skyler howard and dana holgorson or the poor kicker from Michigan getting death threats. If they cant handle the pressure, Gill, or Liberty football then forget going fbs because things will only be amplified. This has to be one of the worst senior leadership groups for liberty football in a long time or ever.

Hey. I'm so nerdy I read the books when they first came out! Plus, these new ones will be huge!
Hey, I'M still mad that the sequel to A New Hope wasn't Splinter of the Mind's Eye (which is so far out of canon now it isn't funny).

Anyone else not buying the ¨my friends keep telling me about what they are saying on FlamesNation¨ bit? That may or may not have been how he initially became aware of it, but if he made those statements without actually seeing what was written himself, he has taken stupid to a whole new level.

Gill says hopefully we can play better and finish with a winning record.

Josh tries to be Tebow and guarantees four straight wins and the most miraculous playoff run ever.

This is my tenth year following the team and I can't think of any football player who has been more unlikable than him. He's almost to Kyle Ohman status.
Gus Condon took a lot of crap. But that was because he was being hyped and didn't deliver. At least he was a good dude

Gus didn't have much of a supporting cast while he was here (besides at the RB position) compared to what they have now. That OL was horrible.

I just went and looked at his twitter account. He clearly had not seen how pissy BYD has got at me for being overly critical.

He does, however, think Flames Nation is rooting for them to lose.

Man he would get chewed up at an FBS school. He would've already posted an Instagram video apologizing while crying if we had a fan base that was truly disrespectful.

Also: hi Josh. Thanks for reading.

It's all about the clicks.

I bet Manson and Duke made a deal with him to say that in his press conference so they could get more clicks. That's gotta be it!

The thing is were not rooting on us to lose but we are disgusted in the play of the team and the leadership. I think it was you that said he was ragging on his own team in an interview disrespecting them yet gets mad at us for discussing our (opinions) of how things are going right now. Any fanbase is going to expect more out of a 4 year starting team captain qb that apprently was NFL caliber. If he cant take it now, the nfl will chew him up and spit him out.

This is me being serious and not goofing around: if we didn't care, we wouldn't comment. He's showing how shallow his mental make up is by even commenting, much less telling fans to keep their mouths shut. Manson and Duke are fans who took their time and money to start a website to discuss Liberty. They're not journalists working at this for a living. They're fans with a platform. For the four year starting quarterback, three year captain to publicly take unprovoked shots at fans for their opinions is much more out of line than anything Flames Nation has said or done. We are starting to see why some in the program were glad he was out against Coastal last year. The dude's a cancer.

After reading some of the posts on this board I can see why he doesn't like us. He does come off a little strong but it is clear he loves his team and is willing to fight for them. I personally don't see anything wrong with that. It's very easy to anonymously critique and criticize someone on a message board. If they do somehow manage to make it into the playoffs (which is highly unlikely) the ones talking so much crap about Woodrum and the team will be the first ones to say how they "knew we could do it" or "we always believed." A lot of bandwagon fans on this message board that's for sure. But hey we're all entitled to our own opinions.

I am the first one to admit we aren't a likeable group but as the leader of the football team he shouldn't care what us idiots have to say.
