I will start the next game sitting on my bench with the “common folk” next to the band, even after last week. Don’t forget we played a good game against UNT and beat SFA and North Alabama after the Central Arkansas debacle. It takes a while to change a culture.

FWIW, I regularly talk to several of the players and they absolutely love playing for KP and are happy at ACU. We turned over roughly 75% of the roster since KP arrived. Deion Sanders Colorado team is going through some of the same things. ACU is not a complete team by any means. The Cats have been inconsistent to say the least.
I have another theory of the loss. 4 of 5 T’Bird losses were by either 2 or 3 points. I would guess that they were a very frustrated team. Once they got up on ACU, they just got stronger and stronger and more confident. We were in the wrong place at the wrong time.

I watched the game on ESPN+. It was terrible. If it weren't us, I would have turned it off. The picture just kept jumping every few seconds, both on and between the plays and during the replays. Never experienced that before. Did anyone else have the same experience? Being totally technically ignorant I don't know what would cause that. Would love to hear how others experienced it. I definitely noticed the “jumping” as I watched. One thing that has been clear when watching on ESPN* is that ACU does have the best broadcast quality.

Will be trying to find the game on tv from our hotel room in Philadelphia this weekend. Sent my tickets to a fellow Kinsmen pledge of the Class of 80. Will be back for the final home game.

Who do you mean by: "people in the program"? Am really curious to know. Talk to some players and get their honest assessment of KP. Are you saying you have done this and have received negative feedback? Or are you saying your honest assessment is finding him lacking? I'm not really interested in this coy floating of the idea that KP has lost the locker room with nothing to back that up. My experience with the man and with people that are with him day in, and day out has been nothing but 100% positive. The vibes I get are a convicted man of faith that cares deeply about the people in his care.
