Liberty is making history in the G5. Usually when the NY6 G5 game comes around the G5 fans come together to root for the “little guy”. This year… G5 fans are coming together in the hopes that Oregon will absolutely obliterate the Flames. This is how annoying Liberty has become.

I’m gonna be honest. I got emotional hearing Gibson speak today. This man wants to be here, he loves the state of WV, and multiple times he said “this is my final destination. I’m gonna end it here in Huntington”. We’ve got ourselves a top tier coach and person.We are… Marshall.

@ArmyBarstool I understand this is an army barstool account. But cmon man. Aren’t you guys supposed to have honor, class and be the best of us? This account has not represented the US Army well all season long. And truth be told… it’s a bit shameful I hope you find success the rest of the way.

I’m hearing multiple reports that Marshall Vs Army will not happen due to the MU roster not having enough guys to send out on the field. Very sad day for multiple reasons. Something must change in college football, because this is an absolute travesty for those who stayed….

Tonight we more than likely saw @KhalanLaborn for the last time at Marshall. On behalf of the entire Marshall Community, I would like to say thank you to #8. You gave us so much this season, and you will forever be known as one of the best ever at MU. Don’t be a stranger!!.

@CanesFootball @CoachLGuidry Miami fans. For the last few years us at Marshall had the privilege of watching @CoachLGuidry defenses on the field. Just know that you have gotten literally one of the best coaches in the country. We hate to see him leave us. Make sure you take care of this man!!.

This was expected. Huff is about to have his curtain call of disrespect to our program. It’ll be a long weekend for us Herd fans. Meanwhile… Coach Gibson has been quietly assembling a roster of guys who are hungry and are ready to prove themselves. I trust Coach Gibson. 🫡.

What a performance from QB1 tonight. 200 yards passing .3 passing TD’s .113 Rushing Yards .(Should have had a rushing TD) . He’s been dialed in, clutch, and a leader. This is what Marshall football looks like on offense.

The craziest thing of all is the fact Huff built a 10 win SBC title team, and was such a snake behind the scenes that he fumbled the opportunity to go P4. It’s almost the equivalent of beating Notre Dame and then losing to Bowling Green the very next week.

The Huff Era is over. A 🧵.The good.Beating ND, VT, and winning a SBC Title are things fans should never forget. Huff was also the best recruiting coach we’ve ever seen and brought many talented guys here. He also found a way to win this year against all odds.

I think we need to give credit to @CoachHuff tonight. He’s had to look at himself in the mirror and make some really tough decisions this week. But he made them. From motivating players, managing staff, and finding a successful game plan, he got it figured out tonight. Respect….

The Southern Miss football program is a mirror image to Marshall. Such a deep history of good football. Would not mind to see them on top once again.
If it’s not you, who would you want the Group of Five playoff representative to be?.

ALL MARSHALL FANS.Wasn’t today fun? Seeing a full stadium. Cheering our team on to a victory? Guess what? You have another chance to do this all over again in 7 days against ODU. Let’s fill this place up again next week!!! These players deserve it, and it is an absolute BLAST!!!.

@notthefakeSVP The NBA peaked in 2016. The league was competitive, somewhat balanced, but now it’s awful. KD was the catalyst for player mobility taking over. Rookies now come from overseas or the G League & Silver has implemented horrendous changes that’s ruining the sport. Very sad to see.

In the middle of Huntington WV there is a river. Next to this river there is a steel mill. And next to the steel mill there is a series of Urban Office Architecture Buildings that do not exist in real life, but are in CFB 25.
The best look at the Joan we’ve had so far 🤩😍🤘🏻 not 100% sure what’s going on behind the athletics building but still looking beautiful @HerdFB @EASPORTSCollege

Good morning. We are 4-1. Undefeated in the SBC, and a lot of season left to play.I’ve been saying this all season these days are the good ole days. Enjoy them. You can’t win every game, and you can’t expect perfection from college kids Pick them up, support them, and beat GA St.

If you would’ve told me at the start of the year that this Marshall team would: .-Beat #8 Notre Dame .-Beat Formally ranked App State .-Beat Formally ranked JMU .-Beat a tough Ga Southern team.I would’ve been really happy. Marshall did all those things, and I’m just kinda happy. .

This is a loss of epic proportions. One of the worst and most embarrassing losses in Marshall football history. And make no mistake. This is not on the shoulders of the players… this is on the shoulders of Charles Huff & his staff. Beyond unacceptable.

From 5 ⭐️ to Injured. From Uber Driver to Legend .Laborn is the ultimate example of “never give up on your dream” We will remember the greatness on the field, but even more than that we will remember his attitude, humility, and dedication to be great Can’t wait to see what’s next.

Shout out to David Early today. It’s tough to get minutes with the combination of guards Marshall has, but when Early gets those minutes, he always seems to make the most of them. Came in clutch today! Love how deep of a roster this team has!!.

This play from the Marshall vs WVU game in 2007. My dad and I had season tickets. I remember being a 10 year old kid, and when this touchdown happened my dad and I went absolutely insane. It was the loudest I’ve ever heard the Joan in my entire life. Never stopped loving MU since
What made you fall in love with College Football?.

I have been told from multiple sources that (ALLEGEDLY) Tony Gibson is our next football coach. It’s rumored he’s signed the papers today and is awaiting the official announcement after all the dominos fall with Huff. If true… this is a home run hire for the Herd.

Final thought of the night. Since the last couple years of Doc’s tenure, Marshall football has felt kinda strange. Like the heart and soul just wasn’t there. Today we saw coaches and players who love this community show out. It really feels like Marshall football is truly back💚.

Tough loss. But this team fought incredibly hard. NC State is a good team… .All our goals are still in front of us. SBC title is VERY winnable. Don’t lose the faith. We have a good team, and it still can be a very special season.

If Marshall loses this game, Huff is officially on the hot seat. I like Huff. I’d like him to get things figured out. But his coordinators are costing him a P5 job, while also jeopardizing his G5 job. Changes need to be made NOW. This type of football is absolutely horrendous….

This one is over. Final thoughts. Roll with Cole the rest of the way. Prepare him for next year. Don’t judge Cole off this year. His OC is incompetent. We won’t know how good or how bad he is until a change is made. This needs to be Trickets final game as OC at Marshall….

The world has seen the strength of the SBC this year. From the upsets of SunBelt Saturday, to now winning the unofficial official G5 championship. Put respect on this conference. The tides have turned and if there is any conversation for a Power 6 it starts with the SBC #FunBelt.

I have no more optimism. This is the worst Marshall team I’ve seen since the mid 2000s. The sad part is, they have talented players. This is all on the coaching staff. This season is a wash. Fire these sorry coaches. And let’s hope next year is better. No more mediocrity.

It was time for him to go no doubt. But not away forever. Doc Holiday brought back Marshall football and is easily a top 5 coach here of all time. He deserves to be remembered in a similar was as Pruett is in Huntington. Thank you @DocHollidayFB , for everything….
Really happy Doc Holliday is back and apart of the program . Everyone had mixed feelings of the 2020 COTY but his loyalty to Marshall is unmatched

There is no more debate. There is no “up in the air”. There should absolutely NOT be any 2 QB system moving forward. Braxton is better. He’s proven it in multiple games this season. Earle is a decent backup, Braxton is a play maker. Stop with this nonsense and lets win the SBC.
