HUNTINGTON — First off, I’d like to apologize to the folks at Lindy’s preseason magazine.
It seems like a year ago when I cracked it open and saw the publication ranked Marshall 90th of the 128 teams in the FBS. I then counted out 26 teams ranked ahead of the Thundering Herd in the “Group of 5.” I called it “disrespect on a grand scale.”
But I was wrong. As it turns out, Lindy’s was optimistic about this team.
After the Herd’s boot-shooting 27-24 loss Saturday to Charlotte at Edwards Stadium, respect should be hard to come by.
