I'm going to watch the Howard Schnellenberger coached Florida Atlantic Owls play Southern Utah. Seeing HS coach at tiny Lockhart Stadium is comparable to seeing Van Morrison sing at the corner bar. It just seems a little incongruous.

Have they completed the expansion of the entrances so that Howard will be able to get his ego into the stadium?

Given Lockhart Stadium's intimate dimensions, they would have had to tear down an entire side of the place to accomplish that.

How old is Schnellenberger? He's got to be getting up there?

I do think King Howard is realizing what a difficult undertaking building a program completely from scratch is at the D-I level. He's not talking about winning National Championships at FAU anymore.

I remember when Schnellenberger came to my local TD Club back when he was at Louisville and told everyone with a straight face that he was going to compete for a National title in 3 years.

I almost hurled a chicken leg at him to knock some sense into him.

I agree. However, given the depths he built Miami from, he did have reason to believe in his own abilities. I'll say this much for Howard where Louisville is concerned. Papa John's Stadium wouldn't have been built if it weren't for his success. John L. Smith and Bobby Petrino should thank him regularly for what he did for the Cards. Those two have made a lot of money as a result of being associated with the program Schnellenberger singlehandedly built.

UT fans should all thank our lucky stars that UK never had the sense to hire Howard (UK alum) after the departure of Jerry Claiborne. It is further proof that the fans in Lex get exactly what they deserve.

100% correct.
