Wisconsin Lutheran tabs the former CUC offensive coordinator Erich Janousky to the same position.

I like this hire. Wonder if the offense will mix things up going forward.

And WLC instantly becomes my pick for conference champions...

1. WLC
2. CUW
3. CUC
4. Benny

QuoteI think you are right.  My only question is (and this is no big deal) is why he switched to DIII after spending the majority of his career in DII as both a player and a coach?  Perhaps it was just because those were the job positions available, especially the HC job.  I would think he would have tried to get an assistants position at one of the other DII GLIAC schools that were closer, such as Findlay, Lake Erie, etc.  Anyway, yes, I will stay tuned. Thanks.

If you listen/watch the video, he says that he made the move to this school at this point in his career because he wants to be in an atmosphere where he can be open about his faith.

Here is the video link for those wondering:

He seems like a solid man. Anyone replacing Pries will obviously be a downgrade in the faith/leadership/personal aspect. What I am hoping for is that he will bring an aspect of football knowledge that Pries did not necessarily have.

Finally, I pray that the team will unite around this man, and most importantly for the team, still unite with each other.

End of 1st. Still 3-0. Bethel has the ball near midfield.

I'll try to update the CUC vs Bethel game for those not watching.

Bethel wins the toss and decides to receive.
CUCs kickoff team is awful so they pop the kick up. Bethel can't handle it and CUC recovers. Concordia has a wide open pass, but it's dropped. Koehler then throws a pick on 4th down. Bethel then goes 3-and-out. CUC gets the ball back and gets some yards, until Koehler goes deep to Jamal Thomas, but it is intercepted. Usually Jamal can make a play over a corner, but Bethels corner made a great play.

Bethel now has the ball.

Don't like the match-up that CUC drew.

Brethel is a hard nosed, grind it out team. CUC might struggle stopping the run, especially with one of their Mike linebackers out for the season (Andrew Gleason). Not sure if Bethel's defense is athletic enough to stop the Cougar offense though. Wouldn't be surprised if this game came down to better coaching.

What are people's thoughts on all conference honors?

Any interest in creating a "message-board" all conference team?
We could nominate players, and then accumulate votes from all of the posters and create a team.
Just an idea to keep some activity on the boards.

CUC beats Benny 26-13.

Crazy game to be at...

Please do tell.  Box scores only tell so much.

yes...am interested to hear as well..

sorry for the late response, however:

I was mainly referring to the atmosphere of the game, and some events in the stands.
I guess some Benedictine fans were not too happy that Concordia traveled well.

There were two incidents in particular that stood out:
1st: Early in the firstf a fight broke out in the stands with a supposed ex-cougar and a rumored to be relative of a star Benedictine player. However, I cannot confirm anything.

2nd: At the end of the 4th quarter, when the game was already won, a certain star play on Benedictine was seen yelling back and forth with a section of the Concordia fan section. He needed teammates and coaches to calm him down.


Also, what do people think the odds are that Concordia Chicago gets a home game for their first playoff game? I have seen rumors of opponents of Adrian or Lake Forest.

CUC beats Benny 26-13.

Crazy game to be at...
