what's your take on the best and worst coaches of the conference??
NJAC Fans, what is the seating capacity for Kean's gym?
That bracket is out of date. Better to use ours. It has the proper hosts ... not to mention game times.

God bless the person writing up the Fantastic Kean/Amherst game last night, they mentioned the two players from Amherst getting their 1,000th point in the contest. I do hope they made it safely back to MA.

Hard to say, Warren, but I would certainly hope not, as we all "talk up" the true student athlete of D3 sports and the stellar academic achievements of so many of the team members. As the NCAA likes to say---athletes, in all divisions, will be going "pro" in something other than sports. I'm sure you saw first-hand that the majority of athletes at your institution learned how to manage their time to produce good grades to get a start on their life-long career.
Rumors -- I am sure there are probably some mild shenanigans at other schools, but grade-fixing? Creating classes? Sounds like a prep school (you know what I mean, the diploma mills) or a D-I school (Minnesota?) kind of thing.
Rumor has it that the current Kean administration will be interviewing former Upsala College administrators about their recent job opening.

And whatever happened to Upsala; they were a league opponent of Scranton back when ?
... firing the former AD and now the coach as scapegoatsFrom what I can see, firing the AD could be characterized as scapegoating, but many of the allegations involved the (apparently) willing collusion of the coach and some administrators, so firing the coach is probably better characterized as "overdue" than scapegoating. It is clearly the responsibility of any head coach in any sport to know what is acceptable and what is not concerning NCAA complaince, and if even half of the allegations are true, then there was more than enough ADULT misbehavior to warrant corrective action. To me, the real scapegoats were the athletes who lost scholarships without due process last spring because the the school wanted to show public remorse for a minor infraction.
Are there ineligible players on the 2012 roster?
------------------------------
I know 1 of them is currently, not sure about any others. I'm not going to mention names on here, message me if you want to know more.
All that being said, she is an excellent coach with a flawless ethical reputation and a very good repoir with her student-athletes. Kean, if it can overcome its stigma, should do very well with her in charge.
It would be interesting to know the real reason Brown left a great program and defected to FDU.
