Waynesburg confirmed for me last month that he was back this year.

thats a developing story....IMO, Pat.   That eligibility issue has been a rumor circulating PAC circles since November 2007. 


Thomas More returns 17 starters (not including All-PAC QB Stellman and All-PAC LB Steinmetz from 2006).  I think they are going to do better than the 5th spot they were selected to finish in 2008.   Provided the injury bug doesn't bite again this season, the returners along with the strong freshman class Coach Hilvert has brought in....will make camp very competitive. 

Last season's rash of pre-season injuries was ridiculous..

Well, I hope I wasn't lied to by Waynesburg. That would make it very difficult to give them any preseason honors in the future.

I didn't really think much about it until coach didn't mention Heller during the PAC media day along with their DE and others. Then I assumed the information was correct. I'd rather see a guy with that talent playing.

An article in the Observer-Reporter, 8/7, said that Waynesburg had just gotten some good news and that Heller had satisfactorily completed some make-up class work this summer and would be eligible. They quoted Shepas as saying, "I think that everything is OK there." (Emphasis on think added). Which doesn't sound to me like he's too sure about it.

Waynesburg has posted a story entitled "A Look Ahead to the 2008 Season" on the College's
website. It states that "Bo" Heller will be back this year.

Greetings fumble man 33!

Welcome to the boards!  The Presidents AC board is a very good one.  The fans are knowledgeable and contribute to our understanding of that corner of South Region football.

SaintsFAN

Speaking in 3rd person are we?

Well, Pat...at least we know for sure that he's going to play......this year

Hey all!  I just registered this morning and I am looking forward to some good PAC football games this fall.

I am a Westminster College grad from 1980.  I used to post on Don Hansen's forum until he kicked me off.  (His site is all but dead anyway.)  But I promise I will behave myself on this forum.

I should be able to attend most Westminster home games this year.  I am hoping we can win 6 or 7 games.  Am I delirious or what?  Yeah, I am!

The first test will be at Heidelberg On Sept 6th.  (Heidelberg was the only OAC team to score on Mt. Union's first team defense last year.)   After that Allegheny comes to New Wilmington the next week.  After those two games we will see if the Titans can put together a winning season for the first time since 2002.

Well anyway, I am glad to be a part of this forum....

Pat Coleman

Well, not sure what it took to get booted from there but welcome. And behaving would be helpful but we haven't had too many problems since we started requiring registration a couple years back.

The reason, I believe, was that I "said" some negative things about another school and their coach (not a PAC school or coach).  I didn't use vulgarity or anything like that.  I tried to log in one day and found out that I couldn't get in and my posts were all deleted.

It's too bad, because a lot of other users on his site had a lot to say about it, too.  I am sure I got someone upset about my comments and they notified the site adminstrator and got me banned.  Oh well, this site is 100 times more livelier....

Very much so...!  JK, thats why they play the games... and we're all still undefeated at this point.   Welcome to the board.  BTW, you're right...this is a great website for Division 3 Athletics (not just football).

IMO, The 'Berg is going to be a handful for you guys.  If you followed Westminnie at all early in this decade, you'll recognize the offensive sets used by Coach Mike Hallett (former offensive coordinator under Dean Paul at Thomas More and then Coach Paul's successor as Head Coach when he left for Ohio Northern).  Coach Hallett has Bryan Moore and Rick Honnaker with him up at Heidelberg.  You hit the nail on the head, Hallett was OAC Coach of the Year in 2007 and they are rapidly improving with a great staff and the administration placing more of an emphasis on the football program, not to mention Coach Hallett and his staff have had a full year to recruit his players this year..

Hi  SaintsFAN,

I'm only wishing for a winning record for the first time since 2001. The Bison will definately score points but the D will need to improve tremendously to give us a chance for 6-4. Picked up a few more South Florida boys from my area and a total of 53 freshman. The new school president is really behind the sports programs and with the new facilities recruiting should be much stronger.
I hope to get up for 3-4 games.

The site has been pretty quiet. Where's all the preseason posts and predictions.

SaintsFAN

willy,

its good to have the admin behind the program... hopefully you see an influx of cash into the program as well.  You're going to like the TMC surface (and stadium when its complete).  Its going to really help us get to alot more Cincinnati stud HS players.  I think you're going to see TMC really step up in the next two years, as a result. 

I believe the media's pre-season ranking for Thomas More is WAY off.  I'm not saying which direction it should be and it doesn't really matter, as those pencil pushers don't really know anything outside of Western PA.  I will say this, you're going to see a different brand of Thomas More football this year.  I just saw the intrasquad game this morning.  You'll still see the toughness.. I'll add more later, but I think we're going to get John Carroll University in week 1.  Call it a hunch..
