FB: New England Small College Athletic Conference

[lumbercat]

Ok we got a ninth NESCAC game, then playoff eligibility and expansion of roster limits. The next battle, at some point in the future, is probably a 10th (non league) game- but why push the envelope on roster numbers now. Enjoy the concessions we have seen in the NESCAC, all of which were never expected by NESCAC pundits especially given the time frame in which these concessions were made. Take the W for now instead of demanding things and filing lawsuits.

If Trinity, Wes and Tufts want a higher ceiling they should lead a move reinstate the UAA Football alignment with UChicago, Carnegie Mellon, Case Western, Rochester, and Wash U.  Tufts and maybe Wes are actually more closely aligned with these UNIVERSITIES.

Why kill the golden goose with some hastily structured lawsuit. It's still the NESCAC folks and I wouldn't try to push on this now. Further, not a time to look for expansion as budgetary cuts are flying in the Ivies which means they are probably imminent in the NESCAC as well. I'd be more concerned about cuts at this point.

Greetings all, I haven't been able to find much so I'm searching for answers here. Any updates on NESCAC alumni/transfers pursuing NFL or D1 dreams? D1 Camp season is in full swing so I hope someone has heard an update!

I'm not typically tracking such things super closely but I did see the other day a cornerbacks positional preview by Furman that did not give much of a chance for Wesley Abraham to contribute.

I am unaware of any transfers other than Abraham but I'm sure there must be others. Any boardsters care to post any NESCAC transfers they may be aware of ?

(The term 'boardster' reminds of NESCACMAN. He must be near the end of his vacation on the Jersey Shore. His return is no doubt imminent as preseason camps prepare to open)
