lets go FALCONS

[7400West]

Im more astonished at the couple people who have came on here and defended LC.  No one care that they held a team to 45 yards, that is far from the point.  And the CUC ex-players who have posted on here have never used the excuse, "we lost cause of the personal fouls."  They admitted they were beaten.  Im sure that someone just didnt make up their ipod and cell phone were stolen, it must have some truth to it, right?  I know you go to LC or went their but have some sense when it comes to things like this.  The whole, high-fiving players after a personal foul is not just made up by people, their must be some truth to it.  I dunno, id be embarrassed if i was you

It is about time that someone here realizes what is going on! my fellow CUC posters who i mostly dont even know who they are, posted about the sticky fingers, NOT about the game play, YES cuc did not do well at all on o but that does not mean you can go into the bball lockerroom and steal, or attempt to steal! The TRUTH is that A cuc player who was enraged with anger about his cell phone and ipod being taken, after he found it over by the lakeland stuff ran out to the field and started yelling franticly at the LC, then his fellow teamates calmed him down and walked away, all the stuff was recoverd(I think) and that was the end of it.

to lC,

You are a disgrace to this great game of Football!

END OF STORY(unless LC posters want to lie some more!)

[7400West]

   sorry but I have one more importent FACT to add! the best coach lC ever had left the school to come and coach here. we all know who he was. YOu ask yourself why a coach would leave a school as "great" at LC and come to a "lousy" team in river forest, It was mostly because he did not like the way the school was heading and how the players were starting to act! I think it was a very wise choice if you ask me, good luck LC you need some help in many ways!

[Pat Coleman]

There seems to have been a lot of lying here, but most of it is people lying ABOUT Lakeland, not the other way around.

First off, the things about the coach are true plus many more occassions. Trust me, from the stands, you could really pick out a "goofball" (being nice) when he is over there jumping around and slamming waists with other players, and yes, even after injuring starting QB, #4.

This is apparently utterly false. Also, by the way, sideline warnings are usually given for players being too close to the field. They don't give warnings for coaching behavior, they give unsportsmanlike conduct penalties.

Just to add about the LC and their sticky fingers! Today I spoke with some of the Bball players who I am friends with and I can not stress how angry I am. I understand that when the BBall players entered the bball locker room and started looking for all thier stuff they started yelling and wondering what happen to their IPODs, cell phones and cdplayers!!!

You understand wrong. Thanks for nothing.

From Lakeland: "The Assistant AD called today and just wanted us to know that items were taken from the men's basketball locker room and found in the swimming locker room.  She did not accuse our players at all.  There were swimmers, basketball players and other people who were around during that time that could have moved the items.  She just wanted to make us aware in case we heard anything.  Everything was
recovered. "

Pardon me if I find Lakeland officials just a wee bit more credible than the anonymous chest-beating loudmouths on this board. You have earned ZERO cred from me.

How can you sit there and tell someone, THAT WAS AT THE GAME, that they are wrong. Am I bashing LC's program, yeap, I sure am. Is everyone else??? Yea, they are too. Don't just pick me out of a group and accuse me of lying. The refs DID give LC's sideline a warning and YES, the coaches were right along with the players complaining the whole game. Yes, LC's coach was jumping up and slapping hands and waists or whatever hoopla they do after injuring QB #4. Take sides Pat, big deal, doesn't change the people's view of Lakeland. Whitewater, a team not even in this conference knows how they are.

And to add, "the stuff was found in the swimming locker room" thats where visiting players of Concordia change, thats most likely where Lakeland was and I am sure doors are locked during the game so there were no swimmers...and being someone from CUC, the only people that swim in that pool are most likely senior citizens and young children taking swim lessons.

PROUD TO BE A CHEST-BEATING LOUDMOUTH

[Fartcus Smellwood]

Sorry if I come off as being rude Pat but I strongly believe things that I see. I do not believe the locker room story as much and it was more of an assumption as some basketball players from CUC did make it clear that their possessions were in the swimming locker room (ironically where Lakeland players were dressing and around that time). But I will not be accused of lying about what I saw. And being accused of being a chest beating loud mouth is honestly pretty funny because anyone on here with an opinion can be categorized as one and not only on THIS board. So I stand by that. Thanks, is there a way to change your name on here?

[Fartcus Smellwood]

this is still marcus ellwood by the way...

[baseman201]

That is true, Pat you weren't at the game.

Alot can be seen from the stands.  And I think personal friends of basketball players and people who were actually at the game are pretty credible to me.

I know 7400 and I know some basketball players, they wouldn't just make this stuff up.

[Pat Coleman]

That's fine -- however, I'm telling you what Lakeland told me and I'm also telling you what a sideline warning is often for.

In fact, in many games I've spent on the sidelines, I've never once seen a sideline warning called without the official moving the team back.

Again, I don't know what credibility you guys have with all the time you've spent axe-grinding and mouthing off and shouting in ALL CAPS and spelling like a nine-year old on this board.

Hello Gomer and all others who continue to cry about the Muskies, First, Coach "Z" is the best coach in this conference along with the CUW coach, they have proven themselves time and time again. Enough said on that. Second, who would be so foolish to leave any valuables in any locker room. You subject yourself to have your things stolen. These times are not like the 60/70;s when I was a kid, hell people stole then, so why why why would you leave a valuable in any locker room, LESSON LEARNED, and trust me if Z knew of this the player/s would be kicked off the team. As for personal fouls show a game where one was not made. it is a rarity for any team not to have one or 2. Lakeland and its program is clean cut, they do make mistakes which has cost them some games but dirty. cheap etc, they are NOT. And for the knucklehead who said the pain train is lame, sounds like he kicked your azz during the game.  And you got to be kidding me the BEST coach to leave Lakeland for CUC, TRUST ME HINES, HYNES WHAT EVER WAS THE WORST COACH I HAVE EVER MET OR SEEN COACH,  Other than Coach "Z" the BEST was Randy Awery who is at Saginaw Valley State University. You got to be kidding Hynes, I think my son ryan said it best in front of Hynes and his teamates 4 yrs ago, were only as good as our weakest linkd and he is finally leaving!!!!!! End of that discusion, he was right because then Z came along and LOOK where Lakeland is at the top of there program Where Randy Awery left it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Have a great day

maddog,

So lakeland's success had nothing to do with having many of the same guys together for  a couple years? Bring in Coach Z and the rest is history, huh?

bull... any team that stays together will get better and win.  Correct me if i'm wrong, the core of the team was players Hynes recruited with age and experience. Coach Z maybe a better coach but it is stupid to say the last coach was the weak link.

He did something right because he sold the program to recruits, they believed in him and came. He left, they grew up and they win. I suspect if he stays, they grow up, they still win. Coaching is overrated...players make plays!

Personal fouls are part of the game.  During AU's run at the top (98-01) the Spartan's would average 2 or 3 personal fouls.  We played hard and we played through the whistle.  So we blasted a few people as the whistle was blowing... so what.  Its football.  LC does the same thing.  I saw them dominate AU last year and it reminded me of the Spartans from years past.  They were cocky, big, strong, and fast and hit people in the the teeth.  This is what good teams do, bad teams cry about how physical they were and say "that teams dirty".  If you don't like getting it handed to you on the field get stronger, faster athletes and kick their ass between the lines.  

Lastly, all basketball people on this sight... BEWARE OF LARRY WELTON.

Happy Halloween!!

[baseman201]

I agree with Genius

Whenever a team does poorly the coach is always to blame, which is all a bunch of crap.  Talented athletes make a team win, not the coach.  Sure the coach can contribute to bad play calling but in the end it all comes down to the players on the field.

Take Arizona for example, they are LOADED with talent yet at the end of the year if they keep it up Dennis Green is gone.  His fault?  I don't think so.  And do you think the cubs hiring a new coach is going to help?  No way!!!

BUT, BUT, BUT...... I think recruiting those players is the coaches responsibility, so I guess some of it does come back to the coach.  Like CURF 2 years ago, sure everyone says Conwell was a good coach, but he couldn't recruit players worth a crap, hence the 0-20 2 year run.

Either way, my PICKS:

LC vs. AU - I hope AU wins but LC pulls it out by 10 or less
MAC vs. Eureka - Eureka showing a little spark lately, but MAC wins 21-10
BU vs. CUW - CUW wins, but won't be as easy as you think
CUC vs. Greenville - Wow, Greenville is just getting better, they are just too much for CUC, especially with the starting QB out.
