I don''t know. Maybe someone who posts here does but then it becomes a question of whether or not they are allowed to share without betraying a confidence or losing their access.

Re: TOWSON FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS

Why doesn’t the athletic administrators chase bigger affiliations for men’s lacrosse? ACC? Big Ten? Rawak came from the Big Ten…. Even the Big East would be a step up from the CAA. Who says that they haven't tried? You can't force a conference to invite one or more of your teams as affiliates if th...

Re: Group of Five Playoff?

This was all easily foreseeable. UD moved late and, in effect, they preserved a spot in 1AA level of football. History repeated itself. I support the move up for that reason but it would be a real travesty if the two best programs in the AD (MLAX and FH) end up in worse situations than being in the...

Re: Group of Five Playoff?

…and FCS will become D2, etc. That is exactly what I am feeling. FCS will need to either move up (G5) or down (D2). Not necessarily. FBS, FCS, Div II, and Div Iii are all based on differing limits on the number of scholarships or no scholarships (i.e. supposedly Div III). That structure could still...

Re: Transfer Portal Open

And to think it all started as a friendly competition between competing universities Let’s put together a football team and go play a competitive game on Saturday afternoon. Rivalry between schools was magical Here’s an idea …. Why not give the universities back to the scholars and serious students...

Re: Transfer Portal Open

you miss the point entirely and are really on the side of part of the problem. No one is saying they can't earn money at this point, but there is ZERO structure to it. The NFL for example has a salary cap, a slotted rookie pay scale, a free agency period that is limited, etc, etc, etc....It is not ...

Re: Transfer Portal Open

The schools - particularly those in the traditional power conferences - are largely responsible for the chaos that now reigns by playing their criminally greedy games for decades. Now, the players and their reps are over-correcting way, way too far. Sadly for fans and supporters, there doesn't seem...

Re: 2024 Baseball

Ive been saying it all year long ....our D2 and JUCO pitchers arent cutting it at this level. Crazy that pitching has been problematic year in and year out without anything changing. I thought with Sherm and the old guard going out, we would see change. I know its only been year two with Mams but c...

Re: Spring Game Info - April 19

If the indoor facility would be available to students and others when the tennis teams aren't using it, student fees can be used to pay at least part of the cost as in the Carpenter Center practice Basketball courts. I believe that when the Field House had the tartan floor, UD M/W tennis may have p...

Re: In Memoriam: David Roselle

I think he’s referring to Harker. Maybe, but I am not clear on Harker's role in "not influencing the BOT to choose a decent successor". Again, what sport & what coaches? The first “he” is Roselle. The “decent successor” is Harker. So we are talking about Roselle not influencing the BO...
