Re: Richmond to the patriot league in 2025
William & Mary is in position now to be the new king of the CAA…. The geographical epicenter The only wealthy publicly-sponsored institution in the East slower and more reticent to respond to change than UD is W&M. They're the Aunt Bess of FCS football. She was my father's auntie, who lived...

Re: Richmond to the patriot league in 2025
As poor William said to poor Mary, "Pour, Mary, pour."
Not a good decade to be a Griffin fan. What is it with them? Four chief rivals & former conference mates have now left them behind.
Thank goodness the Hens got out right before the roof fell in.

Re: Future Schedule Updates
These are the home and home games we wanted to schedule but could not in the past. See ya FCS!!! 100%, sir. Getting more attractive home games and developing/rekindling rivalries with regional teams is what it's all about for me. I'm way less interested in the post-season, especially in the short-t...

Re: Conversation Starter
Jimmy Flynn was an exceptional sprinter, though most who remember his days as an athlete at UD recall him as a great halfback on the Admiral's teams. My mother's family & Jimmy's were close out in western PA, so I got to know him while he was a student at UD and, of course, later when he coached...

Re: I’m awake - UD to CUSA
It has been reported that one Missouri State donor has a nasty cough. It is covered. Ha ha. Yes. That $5M entrance fee isn't going to hold a single school back from reclassifying if they really want to do it. In the long term, it's a mere drop in the bucket to the hundreds of millions schools spend...

Re: I’m awake - UD to CUSA
Sadly, the Inner Harbor has seen its better days. The pandemic killed it off. Charm City has so much to offer, but the Inner Harbor is no longer a place you want to visit. There's a plan afoot to knock down much of the now-abandoned complex for redevelopment.

Re: Transfer Portal Open
Mr. Islander, your last missive had me thinking of the late, great Harold R's repeated comment he'd make on his old Channel 2 TV orogram whenever a player expressed a bit of overexuberance at his performance: "Well, that young man is certainly very proud of himself. Give mom a wave." Tubby...

Re: Transfer Portal Open
Totally Disagree. Yes FIU has been the worst team in CUSA lately. In 2022 WKU beat them 73-0.Yes 73-0. The bottom half of CUSA is still better than 80% of FCS teams. Without question. People making those sort of comments have clearly not watched a lot of G5 football or don't understand how numbers ...

Re: Group of Five Playoff?
My head hurts .... Agree. It's all up in the air right now and, IMO, not worth paying serious attention to the topic. So many divergent discussions. It'll get sorted out in due time. I still believe Delaware made the move to reclassify just in the nick of time. There may be less opportunity to do t...
