Marshall drops out of Independence Bowl

Marshall opts out of Independence Bowl vs. Army amid transfer portal exodus, per reports

Considering they don’t have any players, that’s a wise decision.

Based on the last APR I can find, it looks like Cincinnati will be the beneficiary here.

There are some good players on Marshall, we are likely to get one, hope we can grab a couple more

Can Rutgers play in 2 bowls? I hear they need the money.

 

[Toga]

We Are Not Marshall

 

[SURules]

Marshal has over 30 players in the Portal.

The first team with a losing record in a bowl game since 2021 with Rutgers in the Gator Bowl?

I heard Schiano wants to lose twice so he can potentially blow out the knee of two opposing QBs during victory formation

An insult to Army

So all those that picked Army in the ESPN contest get a forfeit win right?

Nothing against Army but they look over ranked today. Navy has dominated throughout.

Navy is hammering them on the LOS

And Army is supposed to have the best OL in FBS? What am I watching here this is wild.

 

[SUforme]

Go Navy!

Getting Navy and Pts was a gift today from vegas

Problem is they can’t afford to attend one bowl.

Did Army's DC take another job? They looked disinterested yesterday.

Tim Pernetti trying to remove his alma mater as only team to play a bowl with a losing record.

We should have done that last year.

I fully agree that the opening of the transfer portal needs to be after the bowls.

In an ideal world, I agree with you about the portal. But the championship game is now Jan 20 which is after many schools have started a new semester, so transfers won't be able to participate in spring practice at their new schools. And that may be no big deal to you, which is fine. But it is something to consider.

This whole thing disgusts me and strikes me as a colossal failure on the part of the administration.

Although several starters are among the approximately 30 players who have put their names in the portal, I find it had to believe all 30 have no interest in playing the bowl game.

The administration failed to identify an interim coach when Huff left.

Did the team even start to practice to prepare for the bowl game? The game is on the 28th and practice should have started this week.


I really feel sorry for the 20 seniors who earned the right to play in this bowl and now that is gone.
