Optimism in Decatur as the Big Blue await the 2005 season. Look for Albin and Wallick to lead a young offense. The defense will be a question mark in places however so will the WR position. Scoring points may pose a problem for the Big Blue. Look for Millikin to go 5-4 with an UPSET WIN OVER the North Central Cardinals!

Wow, what a tragedy.  Let's keep the Schmeid family and the IWU staff, players, and community in our thoughts and prayers.

Prayers and condolences to the Schmied family and IWU... :(

Growing up in rural Texas and practicing 2-a-days in conditions in which the Temperature-Humidity Index (THI) must have been 110, I have dumbfounded as to how things like this happen.

Trainers and coaches are especially conscious of the condition.  Smart athletes know how to heat-condition themselves, and it is not like Bear Bryant in 1954 taking the Texas Aggies to Junction, TX to make the unbelievers quit.

Just incredible sadness...

The unthinkable has happened with Doug Schmied's passing.  Our deepest condolences to Doug's parents, relatives, teammates and friends.  Plenty of time later for "Why," "How"-- now is the time for mourning with all who knew and cared for this young man who was in the beginning of his life.  As the father of five sons, I cannot begin to imagine the devastation, the sense of extreme loss felt by Doug's parents.  My heart and prayers for deep inner strength go out to you.

Sad day.  Very sad day.  IWU, God bless.
I'm so happy 'cause today I found my friends. They're in my head.  I'm so ugly, that's okay, 'cause so are you!

Today is a sad day in the CCIW at IWU and the rest of the football world.  We are all humans with hearts bonded together in a football brotherhood.
Those (like me) who have played know that we sweat together, breathe together, and each member is like a family member.  My heart goes out to Blake's family and IWU. I almost broke down in my office cubicle when I read this.  21 years old, he's just a kid. :-\
Where was Blake from originally?  If the wake is close I would like to pay my respects.

That should be Doug Schmied and his family not Blake.  My sympathies and condolences.

Days like today make fans across the country realize that while we may be opponents on Saturdays, we're one big football family off the field. 

To the Schmeid family, the IWU football family and the CCIW conference:  May you find strength in each other and celebrate the good times you shared with Doug. 

My Condolences.
