Honorable mention, last place, all time. Northeastern. :)
I'm glad that we dropped football so Parsons Field doesn't get mentioned in any of the "Worst" lists!!!
Don't think that Villanova will sell football tickets. Whether people show up or not is a different story.
At BC, if you want tickets to the Duke or NC hoops game or the ACC Hoops Tournament -...
They're as good as gone from FCS football. Couple partners in my firm are 'Nova alumni and they're privy to some info. From what they tell me, Nova would play a couple of games on campus, a couple...
Northeastern recruited student athletes for 50 years with the "we're going to have an on campus stadium by the time that you graduate" schtick.
I have a print of the 1959 Master Plan with an on...
You guys threw one hell of a tailgate. One of the best I've ever been to. Those ribs you guys made - melt in your mouth.
I'm not sure how much I drank, but when I walked into the Fargodome one...
I echo ace's comments. Any Pard fans who want to get the royal treatment from perfect strangers, wear your school colors proud, and you'll be well fed and well lubricated by the time you walk into...
Factually incorrect statement about MLS not wanting a joint football/soccer stadium, DFW.
The MLS signed off on a stadium in Boston which was about 200 feet from NU's campus. The stadium was...
That was a GREAT Army-ND game. I went with a couple of ND grads. IIRC, Army scored late to get it to 28-27 or something like that and went for the win instead of the tie, and an ND defensive back...
They don't have to give out all 63. NU didn't. However, there's a minimum number you need to offer to "count" as a game for an FBS school - and I think (and I may be wrong) it's in the 55-58 range....
I'm guessing that by 2014/2015 Army could play Fordham at Yankee Stadium.
I'd love to see Army play at the Stadium. Where my Yankee Season tickets are, I'd be on the 50 yard line.
When we joined the CAA we had plans (similar to UR) to build a 8,500-10,000 seat stadium on our campus, which would have ameliorated the need for Parsons for football. There are/were some pictures...
Cost was an indirect issue at NU, not the current cost - but the future costs to compete.
In order for NU to compete in the CAA, we'd have needed a complete overhaul of our atheltic facilities,...
UND Thunderhorses.
Unique, and I'm sure Ron His Horse is Thunder won't be apposed to it.
Facilities. If we had a facility, we'd still have a team. Without a facility, it's a non-starter.
I don't think anyone's cursing the darkness.
Our hockey and basketball teams received...
I wouldn't be surprised if within the next 5 years you see GMU and VCU football. Those schools will see ODU's success and will try and mimic.
Football at NU is gone and will never come back.
Fiore's crazy if he wants to be in the CAA. He can be a fish like any other fish in the Big South, or he can be a little fish in the CAA pond.
What would you do?
"We Love the Big South."

If anyone collects this stuff, NU is selling its last set of football jerseys. They come in red, white, and black, and they're $100 a pop.
If you're a current NU Student, they are being offered...
Mrs. Husky Alum has already been informed that I will be attending a few FCS games this year.
Once I get schedules, I'll be making my decisions as to which games I'm going to attend.
Our Nephew...
My wife and I were driving through Richmond a few weeks ago on vacation and she wanted to go to UR since she applied there in high school but didn't get in.
I'd never been to the campus before,...
Surace's brother (Brian) was our O-Line coach at Northeastern and had some play calling responsibilities this past season, I believe.
Brian is a real good guy and was very well respected as a...
The Northeastern bookstore had some the last time I was there.
I have a bunch of authentic NU football stuff, but I'm holding on to it for dear life.
I did get a helmet from Rocky Hager a...
Happy (Belated) Hannukah to my Hasidic Homeboys.
Merry Christmas.
Happy Kwaanza.

May 2010 be full of touchdowns and extra points for...
He's a super nice kid. First and foremost.
I think he could use a little more time in the weight room, personally. I think we actually took a fly on the kid out of HS as his HS coach was the...
