With things slowing down on here as the cold winter sets upon us, I figured I should follow my Rams of Cornell and make the jump to the Midwest boards. I haven't followed the MWC very closely so I'm anxious to catch up and get my fill.

There is more life on here than there use to be a few years ago. I would certainly think that with two MWC teams making the playoffs this season that fans would be pretty excited for the conference. I know it made me feel pretty good about Cornell moving to the conference!!

Two MWC teams made the playoffs this fall, and neither one was SNC. (Things that make you go "hmmmm.")

The "new look" Scots (Are there anymore Tanney brothers? Nephews? Cousins?) go old school MWC next season with an opener against Coe.

I predict that the "new look" 2012 Monmouth Scots will be "locked and loaded". Lots of real talent on campus and more coming in--watch out Coe and MWC teams.

This is already more chatter on the board in the past couple weeks than what I expected for the next couple months...keep it up guys!

After a fun 2011 season for the Scots, I'm already looking forward to following them again in the 2012 season. It will certainly be a "new look" team with players graduating, but there are still plenty of starters returning along with alot of up and coming talent in the program. And getting to match up with both Coe and Cornell for the first time since 1997 will be great too!

any reason why poole is leaving beloit....will there be a change in offenses?

fulbakdad · December 21, 2011, 05:24:23 AM

Could be because the Head Coach has been applying/interviewing at other schools. Maybe a complete change?

rome · December 21, 2011, 10:15:56 AM

Really? Where?

Then they should can him and hire Jeremy Warren! Get a Beloit man in charge of this thing!

We at Lake Forest got an early Christmas present. They appointed Coach Cat to Head coach (he was interim).

HELLO! (helloooo, helloooo.....) ECHO! (echooooo.....echooooo.....)

An interesting match-up to watch: Houston's QB vs. the Penn State defense. Keenum needs 5 TDs, I believe, to tie Tanney's record.

scottie · January 03, 2012, 01:18:57 AM

Keenum throws 69 times but "only" has 3 touchdown passes. Perhaps Pat will confirm the official tally and recognize on the big board.

Also threw for "only" 500 yards. Yawn, what a pedestrian day.

Brann hasn't stayed anywhere particularly long. That's neither good nor bad, just a fact. I haven't heard anything as to a complete house cleaning at Beloit so this is likely just probability running it's course.
