D3 vs. NAIA

[Presto]

i'm sorry ralph i wasn't clear, what i meant to say was:

i played hs ball with someone that went to a naia school. the better naia teams could beat the lesser d3 teams but for the most part i think d3 is better even though the naia can give some scholarships and d3 can't. better degree to.

after rereading it i see i didn't clearly say what i meant, sorry about that and thanks for clarifying.

Presto, a point of clarification...

D3 schools do not give athletic scholarships, and their financial aid profiles to athetes must be within 4% of the aid profile of the general student body.

Yeah, I meant to step in there and say it looks like Presto meant the NAIA can give scholarships.

Good to have Ralph chime in anyway, I didn't know the 4% thing.

Faulkner at Huntingdon

[AF4]

Huntingdon will play the first yr program in NAIA, Faulkner University (cross montgomery, al rival) next satuday

today the Huntingdon JV soundly beat the Faulkner JV, 28-18.... sounds close but it was not... They were bigger, faster, and appeared to have many more visible tatoos than the Huntingdon kids... but we played more as a unit/team... we were very well coached

we emptied our bench before the end of the first half

Go Hawks

[smedindy]

we emptied our bench before the end of the first half

In my viewings of JV games - the benches ALWAYS get emptied!

[AF4]

i have a >30r gap in my limited knowledge of jv games ( from when i played  until this yr)  so.......your viewing of jv is more learned than mine ...

my point was they were emptied in the first half

thanks

keep the faith

and 

Go Hawks

Huntingdon Played first yr NAIA Faulkner (and new cross town rival) at Samford Stadium on the Huntingdon campus today, winning 30 - 12. there was a good  crowd, Montgmoery Mayor flipped the coin to start the game, and Huntingdon was presented the first ever battle of montgomery Trophy/Capital City Show Down...or called earlier in the week... The Bird Bowl.. (Hawks vs Eagles)

although a first yr NAIA program, Faulkner had numerous D-1 & D-2 NCAA. and NAIA transfer players

they were bigger and faster than Huntindon, but we played as a more cohesive unit, lots of gang tackling, good fundimental football

Huntingdon held Faulkner fourth and <1 yd on 4 seperate occasions.
  Go Hawks...and keep the faith

[K-Mack]

Thanks for the update.

[AF4]

Go Hawks

[K-Mack]

For some reason I just decided to count, and there are 90 NAIA football programs. Felt like sharing.
