Rumor has it that it will be the Haskell Indian Naitons Football Team. I believe an independent NAIA team http://www.haskell.edu/athletics/football.asp

hahaha I know.. I have had the same email since i was fourteen and some things have changed a little since then.. i actually was trying to figure out how to hide it because i know it was going to be brought up sooner or later

I play linebacker and fullback but every school i have talked to wants me to play linebacker and i enjoy playing linebacker much more... i do like redlands main defense they run too it looks like a great defense to play in as a linebacker

Alright well thanks for the info RFB... im close to making my decision on where to go and just wanted some any input i could get... also could anyone tell me how the an independent team like chapman would make the playoffs becuase i know that the SCIAC champion recieves an automatic bid i was wondering how it works out for independent teams? Would they have to go 9-0?

Yeah thanks i understand this is the sciac board so not many chapman posters anyway... im just trying to find out as much as i can about the two programs... from a different point of view than from the coaches that have have been calling. I agree though redlands does sell itself they have had the most thorough recruiting process out of any school i have visited and they call often... im just not sure im going to be one of 70 kids in this years recruiting class and will have to wait behind upper classman to play

I can understand the how hard it is to get past the admissions staff at occidental. Im a senior in high school and was recently denied to occidental with pretty good grades. i went on the football recruiting weekend and was in contact with the coaches quite often and it never really occurred to me that i would be denied. I also have a question for you guys because the two schools that i have been on contact with except occidental have been redlands and chapman (both of which i have been accepted to). I was wondering if you guys were to give a recomendation what school would it be?( the academics aside) The coaches from both schools have been in constant contact with me.. maybe redlands a little more but if you guys have any insight that would be great.

Well thank you guys for the info i greatly appreciate it

Alright i know this might be weird but i just found this fourm on d3 football and i am currently in my senior year of high school and being recruited by occidental redlands and chapman. i made my overnight visit to occidental two weekends ago and i liked the experiance a lot, yet i have to visit redlands and chapman too, but i was wonderding if i could get any insight on what you guys think of the football programs and how i should go about my decision.
Thank you
