Notes
Hiring Jim Mora (UConn). Big for move to new Pac12
Former QB1 Fowler-Nicolosi left CSU, portal bound
Norvell fired, DC Tyson Summers interim
Def suddenly torched by SDSU? Team is a tire fire
TE1 Jaxxon Warren out vs SDSU game (in boot)
Changing playcallers, Matt Mumme (PGC) now
QB Brousseau much better option, good vs UTSA
Norvell lost CSU game, pass by QB3 for 2 pts?
QB Fowler-Nicolosi cannot play, Off a CFB worst
10 flags and 5 TOs nearly cost vs FCS N. Col
