Not sure why you thought that was a weird statement.  He was just hired this week and January 2 is only about a week away.  Next week is Christmas and I am sure there won't be any students or much staff on campus so why not wait until after next week to move?  All the schools are closed so he can't go out to schools and recruit.

I agree with KYGrizz.  I son't see Leonard going back to HC.  If he does he's crazy.  It doesn't matter how good you are at recruiting.  If Hanover doesn't decrease their enrollment standards and give alittle bit more financial support they will never get the players he can get at Franklin (or other HCAC schools for that matter).  You don't thgink every one of Franklin's star players this year didn't look at HC too but either couldn't get admitted or couldn't get the financial aid they needed?  Hopefully they will make an effort to change things for the new HC coach, but from what I hear from friends down there it doesn't look like admissions has changed much so far.  It will be interesting to see what names are thrown in the ring.

Just had to chime in about the powder puff players.  Ask HC's coaches about that.  They were low on numbers this year anyway an I heard 1/3 of their team is on the injured list.  I think a lot of the problems now are due to the training staff.  Even if the kids want to play they aren't cleared by the docs.  As if HC wasn't struggling enough this year and then half their key players get put out for the season.  Ouch.

That's my post for the month.  Good luck to all HCAC teams this weekend.

I hope you're right about the HC/W&J game.  It could be ugly.  HC's best 2 DBs were injured against Butler and at least one will definitely not be able to play.  Heard rumor they had to move some WRs over to their secondary.  Their frosh QB looks pretty good for the most part when he has time to throw.  Let's just hope he isn't gun shy after last weekend.

Talked to some people about the HC game.  I guess the O looked pretty good - especially for starting a freshman QB- but it doesn't help when they have to score every time because the D can't stop my grandma.

I think Leonard would be crazy to go back to HC right now.  I have also heard great things about the new pres and her support for athletics but it could take years to get the school and programs built back up.  However...maybe we should start talking about a switch for Theo since he is from southern IN.

I couldn't figure out the link thing to attach it but I checked out Hanover's local paper (Madison Courier) and there was a nice article about Perry.  It looks like he told the team now so they wouldn't think the season's results had any factor on his decision.  Let's hope he can help get the school back to where it should be.
