He did the same thing at Rowan with transfers. Yes, he had great success at Rowan and won a National Championship at Delaware, but the program is not run the same as it was under Tubby Raymond's watch. It's all about what have you done lately with many of these Head Coaches at all levels including DIII.

[SaintsFAN]

I just looked at the stats... yeah he had a terrible year for Delaware... but shouldn't Keeler have known this going in?  How many GOOD QBs has Ohio State produced in the last 10 years... and this was a guy that couldn't beat out Boeckmann (and thus couldn't hack it at OSU)??

[BTEXPRESS]

Coming out of High school he was an All American and was invited to the Nike 11 QB camp ( same as Tebow, Stafford, Clausen, Juice Williams etc) and he was 6' 6" and a Ohio kid. Tressel thought he got his QB of the future at the time and I guess Keeler thought the same thing when he wanted to transfer to Delaware.

[PA_wesleyfan]

I'll have to look for the write-up again but I think Villanova and JMU were mentioned as also possible schools he would go to..

I am not a Keeler fan at all but I am sure that there are other coaches who try that and aren't successful.. I remember Jersey City had a number of transfers and look what it did for them... Of course transferring to play and transferring because you don't have the smarts to stay in school are two different animals

well wesley fans, couldnt take another week of no live football so i am off to alliance oh to see the mount/wheaton game on saturday.  i am leaving friday afternoon and with any luck on the road will be sitting with some mount fans at a place called the wing warehouse by 1000.  aint this something, d3 football is the greatest and it helps that i dont have to worry about any youngens and my wife, who thinks i am crazy anyway, allows me to prove it every once in awhile.  i will file a report when i return as to how wesley may have stacked up against both teams when i return on sunday.  enjoy the weekend, time to find the cold weather gear since it is only going to be 31 for a high, but the sun will be shining with low wind.

It's a fun trip, even more fun if your team is not on the field. Enjoy the experience as it is one all D3 fans should get to enjoy. Drive safe and we will hook-up back in Salem next weekend.

ps. I'll be on ESPN2 as part of JMU's purple-out tonight against Montana. You gotta love playoff football. Nothing like it in all college football.

Sorry about JMU.  They did a great job in staying in the game, though!

4 TOs will do you in just about everytime. JMU's coach said he had never lost a game that his team never punted in before. Again, turnovers kill.

wesleydad,

not sure if you'll check this or not, but great meeting you tonight.  Even though you said you were coming .. we didn't really believe you'd make it until you walked in with the Wesley shirt on.  You are truly a fan of D3 football.  Sorry I didn't get more time to speak with you, the MUC guys are a friendly bunch.  Its hard to make "the rounds" and since it is my first time up here, I also hadn't met everyone. 

From what I understand you are sitting with skunk and skunks_sidekick just below the pressbox.  I will make a point to say hi to you guys tomorrow at some point.  I don't think I have to do anything but set up the booth before we go on the air at 11:50am.

just got back from alliance, it was a fun trip.  the guys from mount are great hosts.  hung out with them after i arrived friday evening and then was invited to join skunk and skunkssidekick for the yearly ritual of margaritas and mexican breakfast before the game.  since it was pretty cold, i did not mind not missing the tailgate before the game.

saintsfan, it was also nice meeting you with the mount guys on friday night.  i didnt get to sit with them since they were in the crowded sections so i went to the end of the stands to watch the game.  nice stadium, although the sound seems to come out of the mount side on a delay which i think is caused by the roof over the stands.

as far as the game, i believe wesley is at least as good if not better than wheaton.  our offense is just as good and our defense is better.  i was not impressed by their all american d back and return man, ittersagen.  he did not make a play all day and was beat on several passes by short.  he also does not compare to beavers as a returner.

mount union is very good on offense.  they are smallish on the o line, but do the job.  the coaches also made some nice adjustments at halftime to open up the running game.  they give up too many yards against the pass.  if the wheaton receivers did not have a case of the drops early in the game, wheaton may have been able to keep the game closer.  they had at least a half dozen drops in the first half including one that was a touchdown.  mount union was better, but they would have needed all of kmic's yards to win the game.

one more trip left for the season, stagg bowl next weekend.

 Well typing left handed isn't too bad but  good thing there is no limit on deletes.... I know how to spell but my fingers don't  I'll be watching the game next week.
