Union College has announced the hiring of former Dutchman Greg Skjold'13 as Offensive Coordinator...https://unionathletics.com/news/2023/3/2/football-greg-skjold-13-named-offensive-coordinator-at-union.aspx

Ice Bear is very happy to read this. Ice says anyone who has been under Bagnoli's tutelage is A ****ING OK with him. Ice remembers Skjold well and loves that former player connection on the side lines. Ice says Poppe doesn't seem to be ****ing around. Ice likes!

Amazing for the school, students and alumni.  Not everyday that an NCAA National Championship Trophy lands on campus in Geneva!

Thanks Caz. The Statesmen Hockey team led by Coach Taylor is very young, talented and outwork their opponents. Best defensive team in the country with two great freshman goalies.  An offense led by Sophomore Luke Aquaro who joined Coach Taylor on the US Collegiate Hockey team to win the Silver trophy at the World Collegiate games at Lake Placid in the middle of the season. Only losing 2 seniors, they will be preseason favorites for another one in 2023-24.

Man, Ike Irabor'a pro day numbers are something else, including a 4.37 40.

Thanks IB. It was an exciting season, but the skating Pumpkins  were often criticized for their all orange uniforms.....hey, they just don't understand what being a skating Pumpkin is all about. Get ready for the Fall version of the Full Orange Pumpkins . Has Union decided whether they are still Dutchmen/women? Only 5 short months til the crunching of the pads !

Good luck to Ike......I'm glad you guys ran him more on the inside with his speed....4.37 is in "see ya" territory. I didn't know he was that fast because he seemed to also have incredible leg strength for inside runs.

Ithaca releases their 2023 football schedule.  4 non LL games on the slate including the first three on the road.

At Johns Hopkins
At Endicott
At Alfred
Cortland

When I went to the Ithaca website to look at the schedule, I also saw that Lois Butterfield died earlier this month:
https://athletics.ithaca.edu/news/2023/4/8/general-ithaca-college-mourns-passing-of-lois-butterfield.aspx

I enjoyed her book, even with the folksy way she referred to opponents rather than, you know, using the school names.

Yeah, I'm not sure the Behrman scheme suited Ike the best.  A lot of RPO, mostly off tackle, where he was not really able to hit the hole with speed. His best work was stretch to the outside with good TE blocking.  (Ask Ithaca 2019 about that.)  I'm hoping the Poppe playbook is a little simpler, less strategery and more "we're better than you."

UNION has announced it's 2023 football captains and one name sticks out. Joining LBs Cole DeSilva and Tommy Cavallo are OT Stan Koss and DT Jimaar Edwards. Edwards was a 1st Team All Liberty League selection in 2021 who missed last season due to academic complications. I commend Jimaar for doing the work necessary to rejoin the program. His return should be huge for the Dutchmen defense.

So great to see Jimaar back, and to get the C.  He's a beast on the line, and a super-high character, team-first guy.  Much deserved.

Toughness, Discipline and Finish are the core beliefs that new Union head football coach John Poppe will emphasize to his Dutchmen this fall. The 38 year old Poppe's enthusiasm has caught the attention of his players as they start their spring practices this weekend...Union opens it's season at 2nd year program Hilbert College in Hamburg, NY on Sept.2. :o Yes, I know what you're thinking. More of the 2023 Union schedule as it's announced.
