Re: Leaving the conference

That video was awesome. The slides at the end of the Illinois Intercollegiate Athletic Conference from 100 years ago were fascinating. I noticed Carthage in there - from back when they were located in Carthage. There were schools in that map that went extinct 80 years ago. Fascinating stuff! Also, i...

Re: Leaving the conference

Re: Leaving the conference

Scott, do you see the OVC adding any others teams and what do you think the Summit will do. You think they will target other schools or you think there is a chance it could dissolve with other conferences looking to nab the Dakota schools.   Matt Brown had a newsletter recently mentioning OVC and W...

Re: Leaving the conference

Needed to be done. Can't spend so much of budget on travel and be in over our heads budget-wise. We can compete in the OVC where everyone has similar budgets. It'll stink to lose MVFC games though.

Re: Rob Jeter's Future at WIU

Bummer. Unfortunately, being a low-budget school with the geographic isolation of Macomb will always make it an uphill climb to retain good coaches.  I don’t think it had anything to do with a clash with the AD or behind-the-scenes instability. Macomb is just tough to recruit to and the WAC is a top...

Re: "Leatherneck Club appears dormant."

They just picked the wrong word. They didn’t mean it that way.

They just meant a lot of former donors aren’t donating and the goal needs to be to reawaken them.
