The Jackets are having a great year and so is Faulkner and Peoples.  What does RMC have in the hopper to take their place or will they have a tremendous drop off in the coming years.

Wish I knew.  I never have any idea who's going to be on the roster until they post it each year.  As I'm from Lynchburg, I'm always glad to see some of our local guys go to Macon and play football.  But if I had to guess, I think Arruza has his system in and running.  This took a while, and of course, every program will have up and down years but I believe Aruzza's program will stay consistent, much like the way Marty Favret's Tigers have been.
Or so I hope. . . . !

I don't think we will drop off at all at QB.   #9 - Joel Elswick is from Richlands. He will be just fine.  I coach at Brookville in Lynchburg and I have seen Joel play when we played them in the state semi's.  I have to agree I think coach Arruza has recruiting dialed in.  I was impressed with him and coach gray while they were recruiting Zach.

Alright all you Jacket fans.....its time to see what R-MC is really made of.  Number #19 Hopkins rolls into town.  Anybody have any information about this Hopkins team and who the studs are?

I beleive there is going to be a good crowd for the home opener...going to be a great day for a football game.  MARKVA65, Jacketlawyer...either one of you going to be in attendance?

We will be there!!  We will be in the Brock Center parking lot space # 84.  Come by and see us!!  I haven't had time to do any research on Hopkins at all, sorry.

Did anyone see the RMC- Wesleyan Scrimage today?

We went up for the scrimmage and BBQ.  I thought RMC looked very good .  The passing game looked great!  The running game is not there yet, IMO.  They do have a freshman returning kicks though that is very fast and I imagine he will see more playing time as he learns the offense. 1st team played the first half and we were on top at half time.   Defense will get there as well, but I thought we looked a little weak in the middle.   

It was smokin' hot Sat. and no drinks were being sold anywhere, they could have sold a ton of them.  I will have a cooler for the first home game in our tailgate spot and will be more prepared.

Was HS able to get another scrimmage?

Anybody happen to see the RMC inter squad scrimmage on Sat?

Hey, I'm new here and a new Randolph-Macon fan!!  My son will start football there next week.  We are very excited about being part of the ODAC and DIII football.  This board is a great way to learn about both. Thanks.

Welcome Mark. I think that you'll find the boards are a lot of fun and a good way to keep up with what's going on in D3 football. And while your focus will obviously be on the ODAC, I would encourage you to browse the other conferences and regions too. There are a lot of very knowledgeable (and opinionated) fans out there.
Best of luck to your son at R-MC (except for the final game of each season, of course  ).   

I hear ya!!  It's going to be fun being part of that rivalry!!  It's interesting the way it turned out.  My son's high school coach is a HS grad as well as one of the assistant coaches on Varsity.  I coach 7 & 8th Grade and need some Macon backup 

Where are the guys from Concord going?
