Olddog,


Muchas gracias for your Chapman game observations this week. Are you able to shed any light on what Daniel Kane did to get flagged in the final minute of the game? My laptop's audio card is defunct.


Cheers!

I really miss OxyBob's recaps of the Tiger games, especially after their big win against CLU.

Hemi, I think Kane got the penalty for something he my have said, after the ref threw the penalty Kane put his hands up in the air and it look like at first he thought it was on the Chapman kid for blocking after the whistle. It was one those calls from refs, that most likely occurs when they have never played the game and do not understand what it is like to beat on each other 70 times all night. Just go over the two and tell them to keep quiet and get off the field. It did not look like a big deal. Heck if they want to ref, call holding Cal Lu is the only SCIAC team that does not hold almost every play. I heard last week against La Verne three d linemen jerseys had to be replaced due to be torn up so much from La Verne's O line. SCIAC refs are not very strong. On the first score by Chapman, our DT beat the guard and the guard turn around and tackled him so the RB would not get hit, of course no flag. 

Take care

Wildcat11,


Mighty good of you to post that Linfield vs Oxy playoff video for our enlightenment. It's a catchy number with a "strong beat", so to speak-----I'll give it a 10!   8-)




Cheers!

Olddog,


Appreciate your clearing up why that penalty was called on Kane. Having worked as a ref for adult basketball I've got some comprehension of the pressure that SCIAC refs are under, but the savvy Oxy radio broadcast guys have for many years expressed similar concerns to yours about the shortcomings of our conference's ref crews.


Again, thanks, amigo.

Griping about the referees is for losers, even when they win.

There is a difference between being confident and forcing confidence on others.

At Oxy we call that hubris. At CLU they have to look up the word hubris.

There are three front-page links to the message board. None require you to scroll. I also wrote a front-page story that tells you this, if you want to read it.

I did read it and then felt like an idiot for not seeing it earlier.  I like the new look, props on all the sites, they get me through my day.

They have to look up hubris...after the last few posts, I get it.

There have been many discussions baout SCIAC recruiting problems, mostly on the basketball boards.

The bottom line is that D3 type schools are just not known to parents and coaches in California, where they are part of the culture in states to the east of us.
CLU seems to recruit the best because their coach was at a football factory high school and has good contacts.

Interesting theory. 

I submit to you, though, that the SCIAC's problem is as much its deplorable coaching as it is recruiting.  At least 3 of the coaches in the conference are entirely laughable: Roger "Coach for Life" Caron at Pomona; Todd Stratton at Whittier (hard to believe that he wears the same crown once worn by the likes of Chief Newman, George Allen, and Don Coryell); and Kyle "How many ways can I find to let Oxy beat me" Sweeney at CMC.  Owens at Chapman is better, but still awfully marginal (.444 in 14 seasonsis hardly a hall of fame career), and Krich at LaVerne is just another guy on the carousel (though he's managed to launder out some of the stench that set in after 4 years under Andrew Ankeny). McEnroe is decent, although nobody's going to mistake him for John Gagliardi anytime soon (and that team presumably could coach itself to 4 wins/year).

On the upside: Semones is a big upgrade from Redell.  Not clear yet if he's going to make the Tiger faithful forget about Widolff, but he may, pound-for-pound, soon be the best in the SCIAC.
