I'm in the middle of getting ready to move. I'm packing and throwing out stuff and I've been rediscovering some D3football.com items that I have. Here is a picture of something I found today. It is one of my old top 25 poll scratch sheets from 2004. This one was written on the back of an envelope. I would write them out and then enter my vote online. I covered the East for a few years back in the early 00's. If I find anything else interesting, I'll post it when I get a chance.
Allowing for a few obvious exceptions, it's interesting how little the names have changed.
Good times - I covered the South for 2 or 3 years around the same timeframe. I was always amazed by the patience the coaches showed despite the dumb questions I would invariably ask.
Yesterday, I rediscovered while packing:
Austin Murphy's "The Sweet Season" ... a must-read for any D3football fan/player/coach
John Gagliardi's "Winning With No's" ... great philosophy for life, coaching, business, family
Gonna re-read as soon as I get settled in the new place.
There are some sideline photo passes somewhere, wife claims she never threw them out ::) I know I didn't throw away the 2005 semifinal Mount Union pass.
20 years, that's quite an accomplishment. Congratulations!
