LD jumped way up to a big 260 of 901.  Pretty pitiful, but considering where I was, not bad...And I should jump another 150 atleast when UWW wins...  :-)

Merry Christmas to all MAC posters, players and coaches!

It is good to be home in the USA celebrating the holidays.

Japan was fine but nothing compares to America.

Trust me - been all around the world:  from Djibouti, Africa to Yokohama, Japan and Arlington, VA is where I choose to be.

God bless all Marines, Sailors, Airmen, Soldiers, and Guardians who stand the watch 24/7, 365 so we can go out to the convenience store or mall without fearing for our lives.

Right now - aircraft are launching and recovering from the deck of a carrier, a soldier is shouldering a weapon on the DMZ in Korea, a destroyer is patrolling the waters off Somali, an airman is sitting in a missile silo in the Midwest, a Marine is at elevation in Afghanistan with his brothers hunting al Qaeda, and a Guardian is in a helicopter or cutter searching for some desperate soul who fell off his fishing vessel.

America is a wonderful place and I thank the Lord for our freedoms and prosperity and wish you all a blessed Christmas season and prosperous New Year.

Go Warriors!

Saw in my local paper that Widener's Head Football coach, Dave Wood, resigned yesterday after 7 seasons for medical reasons and to spend more time with his family. Kind of surprised by this. I hope everything is ok. My thoughts and prayers go out to him and his family.

Sorry to hear about Coach Wood stepping down- all the best to him and his family. 

Still no news on the next HC at King's? I have all the respect in the world for everyone I know over there, but it is getting a bit late in the process to not have someone in place.......

Happy new year to you. Are you guys coming to Sam Mills Field this September? We owe you one for the spanking you put on us last year.

Widener hired their new Head Football Coach yesterday. Isaac Collins, Defensive Coordinator from The Citadel. According to the press release he becomes only the 5th active minority Head Football coach in D3. Good luck to Coach Collins.

Is that the same Ike Collins who was at Columbia and Hobart before that?  If so, he's a really nice guy and coached a couple of great RB's at Hobart (Mark Logan and Keith Brandon, early).  That may explain why Widener is on the Hobart's schedule starting in 2011, replacing Carnegie Mellon. 

[BTEXPRESS]

That is the same guy. He played and graduated from Rochester in 1994 and also coached at Delaware prior to the Citadel.

[pumkinattack]

Good luck.  He was a great guy amongst a group of great assistant coaches my FR year.  I always figured he'd do well (along with Chris Phelps and Bobby Wynn). 

[WUDLINE]

It is the same Ike Collins who has previously coached at Hobart. However, there is not any connection to Hobart being on the schedule. My understanding is that game was actually in place prior to the coaching change. Congrats to Coach Collins on his new position I hope he can get the program back on track. Also, congrats to Widener for stepping out of the box and hiring what they felt was the best candidate for the program. It will be interesting to see what happens with the players and staff currently involved with the program.
