We've added bodies to every position group except the one we needed most (DT).I realize we're still looking but we are under a month away from fall camp. We added Charcandrick West several years ago after fall workouts began so it's not inconceivable we could still add players but time is short. 2nd thought--if it is true that there is a "meet and greet" and explanation of strategy and recruiting meeting for the more important fans, I hope those present can get a feel about how our coaching staff thinks this team has come together. I'm hopeful we are much, much better but have enough questions to be really anxious. Bogey calls it like he sees it. Would be nice to have some opportunities to sign up for these (even if it meant some payment albeit one less than 10k). Getting an insider look at how the coaches operate would be really interesting. Hopefully someone can report back

I have been waiting for this roster update for quite awhile, now.

KJ, this updated roster is undoubtedly the earliest I have ever seen it done at ACU. Usually, the roster update for football comes out at the opening of fall practice (or a week or 2 after fall practices start) -- which is 3 weeks from now. This is some kind of a new record for ACU football. This is another sign of the new football staff being hugely more responsive to ACU fans than the past staff.

TF - Am I remembering this correctly, but wasn't there one year where it was actually a race to get it done for the game notes/program for the first game.

Hopefully someone can report back Money talks at ALL universities, including ACU. Certain access to people and info has always been reserved for bigger donors, I have always been appreciative for those who do work hard to get what they can and for this board to share.

A couple of things I noticed...
No longer have any players listed as FB, just TE's. I wonder if these kids will be playing a halfback/hybrid type of role or if that's in the offense. If not, I could see why some players would leave if they no longer have a position suited for them in the offense.
Eligibility years seem out of whack.
John Brannon still listed on the roster and I thought he was a retired player.

Brannon is a grad student

John is a very smart young man and I hope he really has an impact this year. He was injured this last season is my understanding. I think his area of study is cyber security.

This is really great news. First--we have a roster in mid July and then updated weights a week or so later. Kudos to our staff and SID for getting this info out to us fans. Good job.
