The good news is that apparently Rowan and St. John Fisher joined the MAC since this conversation is happening on this board.

Boy, will this league be tough next year.
Evidently, they also are members of the LL also!

This inane conversation started when RU Fan was bashing wilkes and I laid into him for bashing a great team like wilkes

For any of you naysayers, go back and read the posts and see who was bashing who and when.  If you gents can read, I said that Wilkes played an inspired game and obviously belonged there, etc., etc. etc.  It was just that their mistakes came at a more critical time than the RU mistakes, etc. etc. etc.

This "inane conversation" conversation started when someone (see if you all can guess who)  was saying that RU didn't belong there and addressed a player directly.

I'll excuse Stuperman's quote above because he obviously has a very short memory and can't read.

I know all of you will miss me but I'll go back to the NJAC board until Stuperman, or any of his misguided supporters,  reappear with a dose of RU venom.  ;) 

Now, you've done it, you all have hurt my feelings. ;D

That's funny... I thought you were allowed to post on other boards.

RU their mistakes or Rowan's luck? Seems to me Rowan is not very impressive this year. They have squeaked by most of their opponants over the last month or so of the season. As for your presence on this board, regardless of what you assert, you came on here to either gloat or stir the pot, either way your motives are questionable at best, and you deserve whatever bashing you received.

I'm baaaaaaaack!  Did you guys miss me? 8) 

The Guru has stated above that one may post on other boards if they stay on topic.  Thanks, PC.  So here goes.

RU is in the Quarterfinals if I'm not mistaken.  I checked the NCAA rule book and it states that a team wins if it has at least 1 more point than the other guys.  There wasn't any section listed for "lucky" wins.  Sorry!

Also, my presence on this board was prompted by Stuperman when he chose to say some of the things that you are asserting ... only worse.  I responded to him and the rest is history.  Read the posts!  If you call that stirring the pot, so be it.   As I always say, whatever makes you feel better. ;)

Talking about teams that have been unimpressive this year, what happened to the Feared Ram?  Put down your 'Stones", you're living in a "Glass House".

Now on to Rochester for a tough game against, from what I hear,  a very good team.

Posters,
I'm as big a MAC fan as anyone on the board.  With that being said, Rowan has had and continues to be one of the better programs in D3 football.  U cannot argue with success.  Luck is always part of the formula in any venue in life, including football.  When two good teams go at it ie: WILKES AND ROWAN, sometimes just being lucky for one play can make the difference between winning and losing.  I realize every season differs, but last season one might remember, I was the poster that questioned if any team in the MAC could defeat Rowan.  This season if Rowan and Wilkes played again, Wilkes might just as easily come out on top rather then bein defeated.  It appeared they were pretty evenly matched opponents.  I am writing this post because there appears to be a minute faction on this board that does not wanna give Rowan it's due respect.  GO ROWAN!

More likely those reactions are more heat of the moment/gameday passion...than disrespect.

Unless someone has had their head in the sand, there is no denying what Rowan has accomplished in the last 10 years or so...

Now it seems that the MAC teams will begin to measure themselves against the "Rowan Yardstick"...and now that we will start to see some long anticipated matchups between the MAC and NJAC, that is exactly what they will get.

Let's just hope they are not  "careful for what you wished for" results.  Being a re-located SJ guy I can tell you that the talent pool in NJ is excellent.  And Rowan has been recruiting hard there... Unless the MAC schools can do a better job over there, we will not get to the levels we hope for....

It was nice to see Wilkes be competitive this year against them.  With the parity in the MAC, hopefully the majority of the OOC MAC games this year will be wins


Only 9 months to go to find out!....

Those kind of athletes would be more than welcome in Rochester, they've got a ton of talent down there.  Thats a shame if it were true.

PBR...

machamp i havent heard anything about a lot of players transfering out, but remember that dvc had a ton of players on the team last year and if your not starting and there is a freshmen or sophmore starting in front of you and your heart is set on starting then a number of players are going to consider going to a different school where they might have a chance to play. as well as other factors....school cost, be closer to home and family, academics, differences with the coaching staff....etc

HANGTIME

MACchamp,

uPBRmeASAP is correct in his assessment of why a student decides to leave one school for another. I have kind of an inside tract in what you were questioning but havent heard if that is true or not. However, along with uPBRmeASAP's assessment, and the coming to the end of the semester, you will always see some transfers, obviously. But as far as specific players of the football team, I dont see a mass exodus. DVC will stay competitive for a while yet.  Another MAC title, I dont see it for a while yet. 
Personally, I am still a bit bitter regarding this years final outcome. Sure they finished 2nd in the MAC but each game appeared to be a struggle with the exception of a couple.  Isgro is going to be a good QB, and again I hate beating this dead horse, I personally would not have put a freshman in charge to lead a team this talent ladend, that was poised to make another run at the MAC title. I would have made Hasenauer the starter with Isgro and McMonagle as the understudies.  But what do I know as I am just a fan.

There is a change needed at the "O" coordinator Position, in my opinion only. The play calling was suspect and  very predictable. Sure I have heard that the freshman QB could only handle so much in his first year but was that fair to the Seniors who had work so hard for the last 3 years to come to the brink of maybe a third MAC title. Sorry guys, just venting here, I hear its good for the health.

Anybody???
