I think I may have an answer for the calvin/hope representative, Joel Holstege.  However I cant remember his playing years and if or if not he would fall within the dcade time requirements.

When I started thinking of names for the all decade team, I wanted to make sure that I didn't overload players from one particular conference or team, becuase I new the attacks would begin.  With that being said I picked Melzer over Kaslow based only on personal choice.  I was struggling to come up with a player from either Calvin of Hope to also be represented.  Any thoughts?  I totally for got Jenkins and feel pretty strongly he should be on the team.  Will the All Decade team be 5 first teamers with a second and 3rd team>  Also will the team be picked on position or BEST palyers?

I have been thinking about the All Decade team and I think the OAC representative should be Jeff Gibbs.  I know some are going to say Davis from BW (either one) but it would be hard to get more than one from the OAC.  I saw a Woo fan nominated Nelson and I think he is a consideration but hard to top the following: Andy Panko, Devean George, Jeff Gibbs, Rick Melzer, Adam Dauksas, Kory Koon, Merrill Brunson.  Thoughts?

David, thanks for the update and clarification about the Ford's.  I am not sure sure my thoughts about Geno's departure.  Disappointed because I felt confident he would draw some premium recruits and further stregthen the OAC.  Happy maybe because we would have a chance at some recruits if he wasn't around.  Congrats to him on the opportunity.  I wonder how long before the OU bobcats have him as a coach.

With reagrds to Stu, everyone has there opinion.  I am not partial either way.  I kind of feel the same about Brandon Todd.  I know that Geno is in the process of turning that program into an elite preformer and it sounds like some peviously scholarship transfers may be a geat way to accelerate that time line.  Muskingum's problem is location.  That is a hard one to over come.  JCU BW CAP Ott heck even Wilmington and Mount are better located for those student athlets concerned with a social aspect of college.  I know Ada isn't a merto mecca but ONU gets its players based on tradition of wimming and the fact that other than the Berg not many recruit the northwest part of the state.  That leaves Musk MAR and Heid with the scraps.  Just an opinion.

Although I have been absent from the D-3 posting board for few years or so, I too have heard that Captial and Da Berg are slatted as favorites.  Not since Matt Adams, Adam Smith and Foster were playing in Tiffin (early-mid 90's) were the Student Princesses picked to having a winning record let alone contend.  Based on last year, they were fairly even production wise with the likes of Shriver, Lemmon and Schmidt.  One of those guys is going to have to step up and carry the team. Prediction OAC champ will have 3-4 conference loses.  Should be much parity amongst the 2-6 teams. ONU and JCU are always dangerous and should again contend.  Other than Nate Stahl from Cap Brandon Todd of Muskingum and Stu Anglum of MTU the OAC appears to be down a little talent wise.  What do you guys think? Andy word on incoming Freshman?
