Congratulations to whom, Wilburt? 

I agree that it will be unfortunate if Huntingdon gets orphaned.  It is a long trip from Montgomery to Christopher Newport but how long is CNU going to hang around in the USA South?  Or does that matter if the USA South does north and south divisions?   

What happens to the GSAC women's schools?

They could keep the Great South name, hold onto the AQ for two years if they lose only the three teams, but they would need a seventh pretty fast.

i think that cnu's time in the usasac is short, and i think that piedmont to the usasac may have shortened the time-table...if m'ville and lagrange join within the next few weeks, i think that time-table becomes almost immediate

and i don't think you'll get too much opposition from the usasac presidents - it is hard to forge a level playing field among private schools in d3 (vastly different admissions standards, financial abilities/philosophies, etc.) - the cost and facilities advantage of being a public institution makes it even more difficult to compete on a level field

From Wednesday's Daily Times on what happens next with GSAC and USAC

NARCH I wouldn't bet against you on that one.

Maryville recruits two players from good high school programs;  maybe more like "projects" for the transition to college ball:

To my nemesis, be fair.  I haven't posted since April 5 (and that was nothing to get upset about), but you've gone in daily for the last week to 10 days and dinged me.  Did I do something to tick you off?  I "get" karma and smiting, but I don't understand smiting when you don't post anything.  :)

There once was a poster who's read
With humor and insight and dread.
He said "Was I clever
Or will I forever
Get hit with a smite when I'm dead!?"

Don't know.  :)  Read Pat's comment on ODAC football - evidently lots of other people were too.

Looks like Maryville has gotten a big guy with lots of potential:

I wonder what conference he will help the Scots win.

We are 2 days beyond the May 1st deadline.

I sincerely hope that Maryville is using its prestige and reputation to pull Huntingdon and Covenant into the USA South.

me too
If travel is a concern, then the USA South can use the GSAC men as travel partners for the USA South women such as Peace, Meredith and Mary Baldwin for scheduling sake.

Perhaps a little suspense?
this is interesting to me, as well...when i saw piedmont and lagrange jump ship, i assumed m'ville wouldn't be far behind

the fact that they haven't come over tells me they either like life as a pool b (there are time when being a pool b is an advantage, including lagrange in baseball last year) or they are entertaining/soliciting another offer
