Pete i LOVE the Blackout Night idea
It's about time we do something to get the fans into it. We should do something similar for the FAU game

Panthers TV; Blackout Troy
Will have the recaps from the two scrimmages from Thursday and Friday on the next post, but for now here is where you can catch your Panthers on TV this weekend. Tommorrow night (Saturday, August 29) T.Y. Hilton and Paul McCall will be guests on CBS 4 Sportszone at 7 p.m. on Channel 4. FIU an...
I think Stephen Bailey could make the most impact this season. Can't knock on his size, especially after gaining 25 pounds & being on the scout team for a year.
FIU Fanatic, I thought Mack wasnt even on the team.? He wasnt practicing or working out with them... I dont think last year counts against him football-wise. To my understandind he hadn't been cleared by the NCAA to participate.
Pete, can Cmack redshirt this season?
And for the last post, Doesn't Larvez run a low 4.5? Didn't Mallary reportedly run a 4.3? not a 4.55?
I'm interested in knowing Times' actual 40 time too.
Thanks pete! great stuff!

Camp Preview: Offensive Line and Kickers
With its array of playmakers, the FIU offense has a chance to be pretty good this season, but like is the case in all levels of football, the offense will only be as good as its offensive line. For this coming season, at least on paper, FIU's offensive line starts off on the right foot with all ...
One area of our game we haven't really emphasized on is our special teams.
Not only are we getting Munera back, but we have Griffin (top 20 kicker on rivals) in there for kick offs and FG's.
Also, many of our recruits were beasts on special teams coverage and returns...
We are going to have a very strong special teams unit, and we'll surprise some people.
Don't worry guys, we'll trap the owls in our cage. FIU will open some eyes this season.

Munera Gets 5th Season; Visit to a 7-on-7
FIU punter Carlos Munera was granted a 5th season of college football by the NCAA on Wednesday afternoon. Munera had petitioned the NCAA for a medical redshirt after transferring to FIU before last season from West Hills College where he was a JUCO All-American punter. Munera, who at 6-2, 232...

& about Mars squatting 515 pounds... wow. Take it easy on them Pooh Bear LOL.

Congrats on the draft Tyler!
Thank you for the great times at FIU.

Best of luck!

Sweet Home Baltimore
Tyler Townsend made himself at home last week at an Orioles pre-draft workout in Camden Yards. Late Tuesday night, Tyler became a Baltimore Oriole after he was selected in the 3rd round (85th overall) by the Orioles. Tyler became the 3rd highest drafted FIU player in the 37-year history of FIU ...
"I expect a tough, physical game and I expect our guys coming out of that tunnel breathing fire and getting ready to rock and roll. We’re going to be extremely prepared and we’re going to go in there and fight for that game".
I absolutely LOVED that response. That's the kind of thing you want to hear from your coach.
& NYCFIUFan: "I hope we don't get our butts handed to us like UM did last year."
I don't know what games they broadcast up in New york... because 1 we didnt play Miami last season... and 2 we didnt get our butts kicked at the orange bowl last time we played them. I was there, they won the game in the second half. sorry buddy.

MC Q&A Part 2
Back to your Q&A with FIU coach Mario Cristobal as we got plenty of questions to get to as we continue our countdown to the 2009 Panthers football season. Just 63 days until FIU opens camp (Aug. 10) and 96 days until the Panthers open the season (Sept. 12) at Alabama. Let's get back to your qu...
Great great addition for FIU football.
Welcome to the family Khambrel.
Great choice!

We'll get back to the very popular Q&A with MC on the next post. For now, here is a little bit of this and a little bit of that from the world of your FIU Panthers athletic program. Add another Northwestern High player to the FIU defense for 2010 when Bulls defensive back Khambrel McGee is e...
Thank you Coach, thank you Pete.
GREAT stuff. Couldn't have asked for more.
Can't wait for football season!
Gold, i couldn't agree with you more.
Good to know Mars is putting on weight & getting ready for a great year.
Proud to be an FIU golden panther

Mario Cristobal Q&A Part 1
You good people have asked the questions and FIU football coach Mario Cristobal has answered. We got more than 40 questions to get to. We'll divide the MC Q&A into several parts. If you don't see your question in this post, don't run yelling out of the room. The questions have been answered and...
Coach, A quick couple of questions:
1. What kind of role do you think Larvez Mars will have this season? Has he gained any weight?
2. What kind of season do you expect out of Jeremiah Weatherspoon? What are his chances to be the 2nd FIU player to be drafted?
Even though I'm really excited about this season, I can't help but think about the offense we'll have with Wesley, TY, Laporte, Theliar, Vann, Perry and Mallary in 2010!

Never Too Early For Football
Still about two and a half months until your Panthers begin fall practice to get ready for Alabama in the Sept. 12 season opener -- 109 days until the 2009 opener. But as you have requested it's never too early to start talking FIU football. No need to take photos of the fieldturf at FIU Stadiu...
Pete,
Although it is HIGHLY unlikely...
Could you imagine the buzz FIU would create if Zeke could land TWO 5 star recruits in L. Stephenson AND L. Williams??
Two of the top 20 Basketball players in the country???

No. 3 Seed At Best; 2 More Hoopsters?
The opportunity to finish second in the Sun Belt regular season baseball standings is no longer a goal for FIU after losing the first game of the 3-game series with Florida Atlantic last night. And to finish 3rd in the SBC became a much longer shot with the Thursday loss. Troy lost as well on ...
Great stuff Pete,
You know times are tough & pete is great when a "lawyer" has the time to come online and come to check out the GPP section. Yet again, CrazyCane and the rest of the scUM come by the GPP daily in fear that FIU might take that next step.
Say all you want, but YOU know its true that if UM held one game to only students and alumni to attend... it wouldn't break 15k...
Just wait until another team starts winning, see what happens to all your LOYAL UCG FANS
Say all you want to sound big and bad, UCG hasnt done jack since the days of Willis and Andre.
You have all these BIG TIME recruits come your way year in and year out, and what happens? NOTHING. We get TY Hilton, who was maybe a 2-3 star recruit, and what happens? he creates more buzz than any of your weapons. Guy, the highlight of the UM season was Marve wanting to transfer! end of story.
UM is stuck in the mud & can't seem to get out.
While FIU can already see the light at the end of the tunnel.

APR; Where's Latavious?; A-Rod The Painter
The NCAA released its APR scores today and FIU continued its improvement with five teams (women's cross country, golf, soccer, tennis and softball) scoring a perfect 1000. And 10 other FIU teams also improved their scores. Men's basketball had the biggest leap of 155 points from 800 to 955. Th...
Pete,
What's the story behind (5star prospect) Latavious Williams visiting FIU this past weekend?
What are our chances in getting him?
Any way we can get his opinions on his visit?
