The elimination of sociology as a major puts BW right in line with DeSantis' campaign to eliminate fields in Florida where students might learn how social forces work. And who needs to know how capitalism works?  I am glad I am not trying to run a college these days!

I guess it was inevitable. I hate it.

Well so much for resisting.  Here is Maryville's posting about this error.

It will be interesting to see if MC hires a former Scot...there are quite a few out there.

Raul will be a D1 head coach someday. It is too bad he and others cannot make much money in D3.

Meanwhile, there are strong cases to be made for the significance of such schools....

Bellhaven almost pulled a major upset representing the CCS in the tournament, falling to St. Thomas (27-10) in OT. Nice work, Blazers. Maybe this league is better than national pundits think.

Maryville was in a tournament at Emory which was a Flo event, so I could not watch any games without buying way more access than I wanted. I am sure Emory can afford not to be part of this.

I played a lot of intramural flag football in college. It is a serious game and fun to play and watch and pretty "safe."

Maryville, which will be SAA next year, beat #8 Carthage in the Great Lakes Invitational. Should be some good competition next year. Scots have beaten Berry and Sewanee this year.

Maryville's coach has nice things to say about Trinity:

As a Maryville fan, I am both happy and not that BJ Brown is not with Huntingdon. He is fun to watch and hard to guard!

Maryville's AD said there has not yet been talk of going Flo in the Southern Athletic Association. I encouraged him to try to keep it that way.

Maryville has published this optimistic introduction to the SAA football world. It will be interesting!

Ron...maybe our star power will make it hot!

Is the SAA any more lively in basketball?  Maryville is up next year....
