Didn't Mare go to Syracuse???

Fluffypuppy I agree whatever did happen to "Thunder" Dave Sunseri but I have found out.  Last heard he was coaching not special teams but more specifically "wedgebuster" for the Park Ridge Falcons. 
Next order of business...

Olindo Mare started out a Syracuse then tranfered to Mac.  He graduated from Mac in 95" and he is in there Hall of Fame.  I wounldn't admit to going to Mac either.  Just kidding!  Frank Carter was and still is a stud.  My first IBC game was against Mac his Sr. year.  He was huge and fast.  We still beat them, but he was a dude.

Happy Holidays!

Speaking of all this Arena League talk, former Lakeland QB Brent Luebke signed with the af2 Green Bay Blizzard. Some of you also may know him as the quarterbacks coach for the Muskies last year.

What posseses someone to start at a D-I school in NY, then transfer to a D-III school all the way in IL to kick? 

Doesn't make the most sense to me.

After further research:  Olindo Mare was listed as a Mac grad in 95.  On the Mac site it says he went on to make the Giants practice squad in 96 and then on to the Dolphins.  On the Syracuse site it says he played on the team in 96.  He wasn't on the team before that.  It is possible that he did his undergrad at Mac (I think he played soccer at first)then went to Syracuse for masters or continude education, had a year of eligiblity left and played at Syracuse as a walk-on.  I don't know how else to explain it.  Both schools claim him.

I thought he went to Syracuse first, and then MAC, but it makes more sense the other way around.

Mare went to Mac before Syracuse and played both soccer and football.  I remember coach Hensley telling a story about how they lost a game because he was at a soccer game....

[Gomer Pyle]

 Guys, the Mac football site is a mess. Has been all year but Olindo Mare is listed in the : Single Season Record section.  His "only" entries are for the year 1991.  I know because i just looked them up.

He went to MacMurray first, then to Syracuse.

He did not go to Greenville.

Thank you for clearing that up for me, now atleast Mac has something to be proud of, if it is still only for a year with him, and the two years as conference champs.  But hopefully that next year they win the conference title, that would be something to see again, or hey, maybe greenville will win it, who knows.

[Fluffypuppy]

Wait, I'm confused...

When did he go to Greenville then, if he went to Mac and then Syracuse?

[mac_5_seven]

Played his final two years at Syracuse (1994-95) after attending MacMurray College in Jacksonville, Ill. and Valencia Community College in Orlando, Fla, where he did not play football ... In his two years at SU, hit on 15 of 24 field goals and 52 of 53 PATs ... Was a second-team All-Big East choice as a senior for the Orangemen ... Led the conference in scoring with 74 points and had 84.5 percent of his kickoffs travel into the end zone with 67.2 percent going for touchbacks ... Converted 12-17 field goals including a long of 50, and 38-39 PATs ... As a junior, 74 percent of his kickoffs went into the end zone, while 54 percent were not returned ... Majored in speech communications.

From the Miami Dolphins website..

So techinally Mac is the only college to have produced a star athlete out of the IBC, wow they must be doing something right there.

Oh, maddog, how did your girlfriends son do this year.

I hope everybody had a very merry christmas, and a happy new year.  As for the next season who will win this upcoming year, my money is on greenville.
