It's going to be the Andrew Hunter show in 2026 for Berry.  If I'm not mistaken, they have 34 seniors on their roster and a lot of them are the names that we hear constantly during the games. I'm assuming they're going to lose a lot of production.

Maryville is right there with them. We're losing a lot of offensive production this year, but luckily the defensive core remain strong. Grant Henderson was named ACFA All-American and he's gone along with Bryson Rollins. Two big play guys.

You are a kinder man than I.  I will never say "Go Vikings", merely "good luck".

This goes for all other schools (SAA or otherwise).  My allegiance is to Maryville College.  Sportsmanship and being a gentleman dictate I remain cordial and wish for safe keeping, but do not mistake me for a conference fan like many SEC fan bases come bowl season.

Congrats on a quick search and finding a solid resume guy.

They did miss a good opportunity for "Freitag tagged to lead football program", though.

Maryville announced the formation of the Kramer Memorial Fund today with MC President Dr. Bryan Coker noting, "We are working with the Kramer family to steer contributions to this memorial fund, and later, we will collaborate with members to determine how donations can best support those projects and initiatives that would align with Roy's and Sara Jo's values, interests, and wishes for the College," said Maryville College President Dr. Bryan F. Coker. "We are so appreciative of the family's support and cooperation during this time."

He (Coker) is a busy man these days.  Working with former senators Lamar Alexander and Bill Frist to fundraise for the $80M Alexander Institute for Conservation Leadership and the Sciences and now working with the Kramer family for something big.  What kind of big remains to be seen, but given Mr. Kramer was the commissioner of the SEC, Vandy's AD and national championship winning coach at Central Michigan (and the link to the Kramer Fund is on the athletics webpage, not academic) leads me to believe there is going to be a big announcement soon regarding facilities for the athletics department.

As I get older, the more I love our alma mater (the song, that is).  The Alexander Institute's focus is centered around Maryville's scenic location at the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains (20 minutes or so from the park) and how we can protect its natural beauty.  It reminds me of the opening line of our alma mater--I hope they can incorporate this somehow in the project.  "Where Chilhowee's lofty mountains pierce the southern blue, proudly stands our alma mater--noble, grand and true."

Quote from: Cowboy2 on December 06, 2025, 02:18:13 PMThis is the most annoying announcer I've listened to all year.... twice now for that matter. I need to buy him a "Hooked on Phonics" class. It's not "scrannel" and it's not "treveris"

Like sound it out man! The other guys isn't bad.

He gets so emotional anytime Berry has a play it hurts my ears because they never fixed their microphone issue.

He's insufferable. I hope he's a student and graduates soon.

Sack. 40 yard down field completion. Gash the D for a 25 yard run. 50 yard FG. John Ward "Give Him 6!" tagline. Acceptable moments to get animated. This guy yells every time a Berry player farts without ruining their white game pants.

Roy Kramer died today at 96. SEC commissioner who pioneered the BCS. Maryville College alum.

I'd spend way too much money on Maryville gear. The 80s era baseball wind breaker would be a quick purchase.

I'm torn. I would like the SAA champ to show well in the playoffs, but...it's Berry. I wouldn't shed a tear if LaGrange did a complete 180 on them. Plus, the better LaGrange is, the better than can compete for the Georgia talent against Berry since they are the only two D3s in the state.

But, hey. Trinity's in it, too. Today is a "Let's Go, Cats!"

Any attorneys lurking around the board? Potential liability posed by this kind of action (thinking breach of contract)?

Maryville's offensive line is terrible. Ever since Millsaps found out that they could pressure Rollins it's been like this week in and week out
#12
Good. They wisely tallied the book at half and we are up 41-38 start of 2H
#13
What the hell! They took the score off!!!

Maryville hit a 3 with a Sewanee off ball fouled called. Refs signaled good made 3 and gave MC the ball on the baseline. Someone tell the guys calling the live stream the score is correct!

Maryville plays at Sewanee tonight. Played well against Berry on Saturday. Looking forward to getting all the teams over to the SAA next year!
