Has any word leaked out about what's going on at Defiance?  Is Taylor there or is he moving along?  Been awfully quiet after a few postingas about "leave of absence," etc.

Should be interesting spring in Indiana - FC coach stays put, Hanover hires Austin, and yesterday's surprise of Creighton leaving Wabash for I-AA Drake as HC.

I just looked through Hanover's site and didn't see any reference to the hiring. Where did that release you pasted come from?

i am with Pat...just scoured the Hanover and HCAC site and no mention to this.  or maybe he showed up and realized how bad they were and left!!

[Adam Sayer]

Sounds awfully similar to the Brett Dietz Hanover offenses. Maybe he can put together a defense along with a high scoring offense.

cave2bens- I noticed someone mentioning that a month ago or so, but I haven't heard anything in regards to Tayor or a vacancy at the Head Coach spot.  I couldn't see him leaving but you never know.

Link us maybe? I'm not alone, obviously.

Well, I dug a little deeper in Hanover's site and still came up empty. But I found this gem on the school's front page:

Hanover's business program to admit freshman

Starting this year, students who apply for admission to Hanover College can also apply to its highly successful business program, the Center for Business Preparation (CBP). Founded in 2004, CBP takes an integrated approach to business education, combining the liberal arts with career exploration and focusing on the skills essential to success in any career.

"By admitting freshman, incoming students can begin to build their experience and resumes as soon as they step foot on campus," said President Sue DeWine. Another benefit, she added, is the ability to leverage the program's powerful combination to secure talented students for the freshman class next fall.

Guess at Hanover they don't know the plural of freshman is freshmen. Or maybe they intend to admit just one person a year -- if so, they need to change "incoming students" to "an incoming student" in the quote.

UC looked darn impressive in their victory over Southern Miss. I know Southern Miss is an inferior opponent, but UC seems to have a wonderful foundation on which to build.

I hope everyone has a great and safe Holiday (don't want to say Christmas in fear of offending anyone who doesn't belive in Jesus). Then again, what kind of person would I be if I didn't offend people 


Merry Christmas

And Hanover was one of the opponents of adding Thomas More to the Heartland because of perceived lower academic standards...

HA!

You are still bitter SaintsFan  .

pat, you run the D3 website, call hanover and get the details. that's what i was saying. you should have some pull by now, or at least i am hoping wayne perry doesn't hang up on you.

frankin has been allowing freshMEN do internships for a very long time to build up their resumes. it also helps when guys want to switch majors. they find out earlier if they love their major or not. good thing if you ask me.

Hope everyone has a safe & great Christmas!

Oh, no doubt, and having spoken to Wayne Perry before I'm sure he wouldn't hang up.

My point was if this hiring did indeed take place, one would think the college would want to acknowledge it publicly, in order to maintain the numbers of its incoming freshman (note proper usage as adjective) class.
