... what gives?

He has multiple personalities. They're all jerks.

Quote from: Nescacman on September 03, 2024, 09:36:20 AMWe concur with you that it would be nice to get more balanced reporting from around the 'CAC.

We much prefer your reporting where you insult individual players and motivate them to destroy your favorite team on the last week of the season.

Quote from: Trin9-0 on May 23, 2024, 12:51:42 PMIn limited action last year Zebrowski completed over 70% of his passes. Of course, as a back-up to one of the most statistically successful NESCAC QBs of all time his reps consisted mostly of handoffs and short passes once games were far out of reach. It's still too early to tell how successful he might be running Trinity's offense but I'd be willing to bet on a fifth year senior with a top-tier roster over a Rookie of the Year winner from a bottom tier team. Also, while Zebrowski was voted a team captain despite his limited playing time it's worth noting Jake Robbins, the transfer QB from West Virginia will likely push him for the starting role. Considering those options, I'd say Trin is among the top three in the QB position group.

Yeah, I'd take the dude who ran scout against that 2023 Trin D week in and week out over some scrub who got lucky to bead a sorry ass Tufts team.

... do you ever see Trinity "offering" or kids "accepting offers" before SEP?  Trinity was one of the schools who never offered my kid.  Would be interesting to see if they would have.  But my kid did not want to lose out on the Amherst offer so he "committed"  in AUG, before Trinity said they would "offer", in the year he was recruited.

Rumor has it that Trinity has already offered Spencer Fetter's future offspring.

Our well-placed league sources tell us that Nescacman ate crow for Thanksgiving.

On a more positive note, we wish all of our fellow Boardsters and NESCAC fans a very safe and enjoyable family (yes, even you HS9-o). We ALL have much to be thankful for.

Yes, Happy Thanksgiving, NM. We're personally thankful that you paint such a wonderfully big, bright target on your Wesleyanne Turkey-birds. We'll eat well today, but the real feast was back on November 11.

To answer your questions on the tutoring program at Trinity, the tutors are an optional resource that are available to the first year student-athletes during their mandatory study halls. Due to their packed schedules as student-athletes, it is difficult to gain access to normal tutoring hours on campus during the week, so this program is provided to make sure the student-athletes are offered the same resources as other non-athlete students.

The study hall is proctored by coaches, right? If so, I don't see anything preventing other Trinity programs from doing the same, much less other schools.

Thanks in advance for not reading any of the above as "passive aggressive" and just the musings of a nerd dad trying to learn more as to the competition his son's team faces.

Unlike many on this forum, I try to only speak as to what I know and learn from others as to what I don't know.

Huh. I'm not sure you understand the definition of "passive aggressive."

Oh, one more thing Mr. Bully. You're obviously new to this Board so welcome onboard. We love friendly, passionate and good natured kidding/banter. But you may want to be careful. We believe your threatening quote directed towards us is a violation of the Board's TOS so you might want to be more cautious before your posting career ends before it has begun.

Did his quote scare you? Did he frighten your entire posse of poll voters?

Far more likely you are trying to silence someone with whom you disagree.

LilNescacMan, you are really coming unhinged.

Absolute fact that Trin pulled starters at halftime of at least one game this season.

That absolute fact would be an absolute first- in which game ?

Amherst was one.

Quote from: lumbercat on November 20, 2023, 07:31:55 PM
Disagree- can't remember Trinity ever pulling starters in the first half or early in the third quarter. Nor should they. No idea where you are coming up with that.
Thats too early to pull starters in any game, by any team.

Absolute fact that Trin pulled starters at halftime of at least one game this season.

I cannot fathom how we have co-champions this year. Same record, winner goes to the head-to-head game. Simple, Easy, Effective. If there are three teams with the same record and you have a circular result (like the CBB issue last year), then you have a push with co-champions.
Nothing against Trinity, but Middlebury hands-down deserves the Sole Champion title.

Keep the issue nameless/faceless and leave the team names out of it (since everyone seems to hate Trinity).

If, at the end of this season, Tufts had beaten Midd and Wesleyan had beaten Trinity there would have been a four-way tie for first. How would you have resolved that?

Congrats to Hartford State (Trinity) and Middlebury on being co-NESCAC champions. However, if we examine the two teams in-depth, it is clear Hartford State (Trinity)was the more dominant program. Simply check the scores of the two teams' games Hartford State (Trinity) obliterated every other opponent besides....,

Consider yourself corrected.

NescacFam you missed a few. Your ass is showing.

Quote from: MammothDad on November 15, 2023, 04:53:29 PM

Again, ALL the the talk of admission standards of late started from my post.

I NEVER said the name of the school of the student who said that all of the other athletes and students at the school looked down on the academics of the FB Players.

With that clarification, 3.0?  3.5?

If weighted, you are aware that is low.  Right?

As to why the NESCAC does not use Head to Head as a tie breaker, that's embarrassing.  If Middlebury wins on Saturday, Trinity should have some self respect and never acknowledge "Co-Champions".

The NESCAC needs to get that flaw corrected, if it is not a tie break.

If passive aggressive hating were a skill, you'd finally be a winner.

Also, several posters have alluded to the fact that players and coaches read this forum. No idea if that's true, but if they do, I assume you understand that you give opposing teams plenty of bulletin board material week-in and week-out? If Spencer Fetter reads the boards, do you think he enjoyed that you called him soft? If players and coaches follow these forums, you don't do Wesleyan any favors with your conduct. You paint an unnecessarily large target on the team's back.

After the game last year, many on the Trinity team were seen sporting Hartford State championship shirts. Lil Nescacmen should have been given an honorary shirt, but I'm certain he much prefers his Wesleyanne Little Three watch or whatever consolation trophy he got.
