I get it just fine. According to your theory, scholarships will negate every factor it takes to have a winning program. Every coach we ever higher again should win every year, according to your statement. That's absurd. There are dozens of unsuccessful scholarship programs. Scholarships put you in a different league, arguably higher quality. They don't guaranteer any kind of success. Dream on. Doesn't sound like this president is going in that direction. -- FORDHAM RAMS FOOTBALL FORUM

In reply to: Rambacker 's message, "If you get a need-based aid offer to play football at Colgate, Lehigh, Penn, Harvard, or another Ivy school and Fordham, where are you going? Obviously you're not an NFL prospect so you go to Colgate or the Ivy school, with very few exceptions. We will need a phenomenal coach to beat those odds. Will every coach we have be phenomenal? Of course not. It'll be a long, bumpy ride and it's not worth the frustration of watching and experiencing it. Full scholarship 1-AA football is the way to go. That's why you don't get it." on 22:13:34 11/11/04 Thu

My prior post describes the essence of the problem with a need-based aid program. To have a consistently successful program in the long haul, we need full scholarship 1-AA football. This President has an open mind and is pragmatic, which is what counts. It won't happen overnight, but we'll see what the future brings. (NT) Rambacker 09:24:17 11/12/04 Fri
