Re: Frankly, if Fordham is to go, this is the time most favorable to the school. The FB program is in good shape. The school's stature will have a significant restorative effect to A-10's academic/athletic profile. There will be some transition issues, like those Towson is facing, but with your facility upgrades and hopefully a new Athletic Director, you can surmount them. Fordham will not have to apologize to anybody - the A-10 will be thrilled to add your FB program. -- FORDHAM RAMS FOOTBALL FORUM

In reply to: LUHawker 's message, "No disrespect taken. Though Lehigh doesn't get too excited about FU either and I doubt Delaware, UMass or a I-A will. Unfortunately, I think you are still missing the fundamental tenet of my question, which is, if FU can't compete in the PL, why will it then be a better recruiter against UMass, Del, Villanova or W&M? I think FU's challenges go beyond conference affiliation. If Lehigh and Colgate can recruit well and be very competitive, why can't FU, since we all have the same constraints. Those A-10 schools have even more resources for FB than the PL. Just trying to really understand it." on 16:37:59 11/09/04 Tue

Fordham's problem is that for football purposes it can be categorized as both a small school or a large school (more inside) DamnRam 17:39:22 11/09/04 Tue
