Marcel 2026 was entirely foreseeable.
He made no real improvement from 2024 to 2025.
Yet Mike Elko decided to keep him anyway, and surround him with a wholly unproven offensive coaching staff.
@AgKnocks Accept reality we will never break through and nothing can hurt you.
Except a Marcel Reed led football team. That shit will haunt you forever.
These are the golden years:
1. Exhausted after the kids are down
2. Walking with my son after practice
3. Playing Barbies with the girls
4. The endless questions
5. The “I love you” out of nowhere
6. Little feet running through the house
7. The funny prayers
8. The dance recitals
9. Toys everywhere on the floor
10. The giggles
11. The 47 bedtime requests
12. Little socks everywhere
One day, I bet we’ll wish we could have just one more day like this.
This is the COMBINED OOC play from the top 4 highest ranked Big 10 teams:
P4 Opponents:
Texas (Loss)
The Rest:
North Texas, Howard, WKU, Ball St, Kent St, San Jose St, Fresno St, Louisiana, Marshall, Temple, Buffalo
They played O-N-E p4 team OOC. Combined.
Are teams going to start doing what Texas did with some of their skill position guys this offseason, which is let them walk because it didn't feel like they were good enough. I think the next evolution of this is doing so with quarterback. I think this season looks a lot different if some of these teams didn't overvalue having a "returning starter."
There is something noticeably missing from this team as opposed to last year. Last year, from the first snap, there was more of a “fire” like the team had something to prove. This team seems entirely flat, and the magic is just not there. Praying it changes.

You spend all Saturday watching QBs stare at one WR, bail on clean pockets and throw a ton of WR screens that get blown up and then you get to see a real QB like Trinidad.
Marcel Reed has started 19 games against power conference opponents at A&M.
He’s thrown 21 interceptions in those games.
1 INT in 9 games | 2 INT’s in 6 games
