Didn’t notice two of the HS commits, Dylan Williams WR and Tyjai Hopper DB. I’d also use color to differentiate HS commits from transfers. Just my two cents…thanks.

I don’t believe either signed their NLIs, right? Still possible they get flipped.

The National Champs had a package for their dual threat QB and it seemed to work well, I think Orji had a good run in the championship game.

Have those 2 guys signed their LOIs? JC Evans (QB) hasn’t signed either, I should probably take him down as it’s not official until pen hits paper February 7th.

96% of production lost? Wow.

Now is it truly lost? No but great messaging from Ches. This is your time to make a name for yourself.

Another.note, is this really our team meeting room? Temporary seating? I don't know as I haven't been in Plecker in a long time. Seems we may be due for an upgrade, any Alpha Dogs on the call?

I’d say 96% is very accurate going off passing and rushing, rushing and receiving is slightly different. Just some quick math (may be slightly off)

Total 2023 stats:
Returning stats:

Passing
288-428 3702 yards 36 TD 11 INT
7-16 45 yards 1 TD and 1 INT (includes a 1-1 and TD thrown by a WR)

Rushing
446-1744 yards and 17 TD
33-179 yards 1 TD

Receiving
288-3702 yards and 36 TD
25-289 yards 3 TD

Passing + rushing
5446 yards 53 TD
224 yards 2 TD (4.11%)

Rushing+ receiving
5446 yards 53 TD
468 yards 4 TD (8.59%)

I thought the same thing. No auditorium style seating? Or at least nice office chairs?!

That picture is the Club level of the stadium.

The Plecker center has never had permanent seating in the meeting rooms.

Some won't want to hear this, but the APC probably needs to be expanded/redone prior to worrying about the stadium expansion. It was cutting edge in 2004, but is too small for an FBS program and missing some amenities found at other G5 programs.

Agree !

Plecker center needs a total re-do or it will come down for the next phase of Reno.
too much valuable real estate in that endzone to either not have more more quality $ producing suites / loge style premium seating- which could be incorporated into a re-build of a new performance center. Additionally the scoreboard situation needs to be improved and i don't believe the plecker can handle a larger board on top.. its an eyesore along with the east stands IMO .

I'm gonna go out on a limb that it likely gets included in next phase of expansion. It almost has to with the oops with it not being support structure weight above it.

Are you serious about the scoreboard/video board? It is top notch state of the art and only two years old. Perhaps a second board in the north end zone would be really nice so those seats in the corners where the current board is located would be able to see what the rest of us enjoy. But, completing the Godwin side takes precedent over any of this.

Looks like UVA bought the video board portion of that from us when we upgraded.

After seeing Amon Carter's board, ours seems a little...inadequate.

reference to the current board was more along the line of future planning allowing a situation where we did not have to have the scoreboard support poles so prominently displayed on the field in front of our end zone structure... JMU facilities like to get things done looking right.

Wonder where the old minitron wound up?

Agree, it will be many years before Pleckler and the SB need any change at all. The focus is Godwin side stands. I've been thinking that rather than a jumbotron on the other end, which could be an eyesore, why not put two smaller screens for those sitting in the corners who can't view the jumbotron. Each at a 45° angle and roughly half the size of the jumbotron. I'm saying leave the existing jumbotron in place as it is, simply add two new smaller screens.
