I highly doubt that Coe and Cornell will split a bus since they have been rivals for 100 years.  So, I don't really follow this theory, but from what I can see the game is being played at Ripon.

I looked at both Ripon's and Coe's website and both schedules look like the Coe/Ripon game are at Ripon.

Sorry Gregory.  What I meant to say is assistant coaches.  I don't believe that any team in the Iowa Conference has a full time paid assistant coach.  Which definietly makes it harder to bring in a talented staff, but I still think that the IIAC does fine. 

Head coaches are all paid full time.

Klop,

A couple of points.  Number one, how many full-time paid coaches are in the IIAC?  Not every school like it is in Wisconsin.

A counter point however.  BV has a larger territory to recruit from that basically is untouched by any other four year institution.  Why haven't they been rolling through IIAC every year?

I'm sure that there is no tampering or cheating.  I'm just being a little sarcastic.  I'm sure this was a decision for him to make on his own.

Rumor has it that Ross Timmermans will be playing at Wartburg next year.  Once again Wartburg stealing another player from Coe.  First football now basketball?
