FB: Heartland Collegiate Athletic Conference

[SaintsFAN]

yes, this is just for UWW and Franklin fans only.   

I'm sure it's free for everyone...even for Defiance fans.

Dude, those don't exist... once a crappy program, always a crappy (dodgin'-teams) program...


One Love HCAC..

You ruthless son of a......
SaintsFan,
First, I am going to go on a full scale effort to have our AD schedule you guys for the rest of eternity.  Then, I'm going to start dishing out Cam Newton money for players.  Next, I'm going to get buy out Rich Rod's contract from Michigan and get him to coach at DC.  Finally, after years of laying the smack down on TMC, I'm going to turn your college back into a convent.
or
We can just get you guys on the schedule so you can stop complaining that DC doesn't play you anymore and that you're not part of the HCAC.

haha... sorry

Bob, I like your idea!  Time to put the squeeze on the Prez.

Kev, Good Luck this weekend!  Hopefully one day DC and TMC will get the rivalry going again.  I like the idea of TMC on schedule instead of Muskingum.  Plus, I think DC will return to being a consistent contender in the HCAC and by adding a team like TMC will only benefit them.

Packing up and getting ready to head up to the Badger state to see FC and Whitewater.  most of the GRIZ faithful will be staying in Janesville (just down the road) tonight and on to WW in the am.  Good times and cocktails regardless of the rankings, seedings, and score!!

Good luck to the GRIZ!

Thanks formerd3db, right back at you!  All is good except that I'm still bitter with the end of the season loss by DC, but now I'll have my focus on Franklin and Trine since I played in the MIAA for two years as well.  Hope all is well with you.

You are welcome.  Good to hear from you.  I am doing fine.  Yes, I will be looking at those two games as well, since we've played them both before and, of course, Trine being our MIAA representative.  It looks like the weather might be decent tomorrow for those games.  Take care and talk to you later.

dc_has_been and 70_dc_alum:

Has there been any rumblings about the DC head coaching job? Is RT's job safe?  Just curious.

[dc_has_been]

formerd3db,
As far as I know his job is safe.  He posted a winning record and now has the most wins for DC's football history, plus he brings back pretty much everyone from this years squad.  It would be difficult to cut him loose IMO. 
I'm really hoping he puts together a squad that will truely compete for the championship next year.  He will have everything he needs to help him recruiting.  The fieldhouse, a president that supports the program and wants to see more out of state players, and a strong class of returners for next season.

I fully anticipate a great game tomorrow.  They've not been getting any love all year and its helped them.  

They'll have to win in TX next week to garner any respect from losing to a good Johns Hopkins last year on the last play of the game..

dc_has_been:

Thanks for the info.  I thought perhaps that would be the situation, especially due to the winning season this year, although I wasn't sure how the Bluffton loss in last week's last game might have an effect on the administration and alumni. Indeed, DC theoretically, should be able to be in the run for the HCAC title next year.  I see Franklin and them as two of the teams to beat.

One more question, if I may.  I see where your DC is down to about 730 enrollment.  Do you ever seem them topping 1,000, and if not, why?  Olivet in our MIAA has historically always been anywhere from 680 to 900+.  They have been around 950 the past decade and the past 3 years, although about 3 years ago or so, they topped a 1,000 for a couple of years I believe.  And way back in my time, they had 1,000 for about 4 years when their football team regained some resurgance for a bit (before they hit "bottom" again, until their improved stretch the past decade until these past 3 years after their MIAA co-title in 2006. Anyway, I was just curious about DC in that regard.

[FCGrizzliesGrad]

Since enrollment stuff was mentioned, I thought I'd throw out the fact that it looks like UWW has the 2nd largest enrollment of the 32 playoff teams while Franklin is the smallest.

I'm looking forward to a good game tomorrow. I think the Triple Take predictions are off. No way Franklin loses by more than 20 and hopefully they don't even lose at all.

Good luck Grizzlies

[Adam Sayer]

Good luck to Franklin and Thomas More today. Hope the two teams represent themselves and their conferences well.

Actually, it is "up to."  This is the largest enrollment at Defiance in something like 13 years.
