I would concur. I spoke to him about two years ago, right after the playoff year and he said he was working to add villanova and hofstra but wasn't getting much help. I don't know if he meant from those schools or internally but he thought those games woud make sense. -- FORDHAM RAMS FOOTBALL FORUM

In reply to: J�Dete93 's message, "I would be surprised if Dave Clawson really wanted that weak a schedule that far into his tenure. Did he really expect the program to still be at the point that he could not schedule a little tougher? I always knew Dave to have very lofty goals and for him to schedule down like that would go against the type of person I feel he is. Obviously I may be wrong on that, but that is just the way I read him." on 20:49:18 12/10/04 Fri

I was told that Dave had a large degree of control over who he wanted on the schedule. It is possible one of these mid major games may have been a late addition. I think we all agree that these games don't excite us. Based on some of the comments though, I don't think anyone intentionally scheduled down to undercut the program's growth. Why would anybody do that? BTW, hope you're getting some sleep at night JoDete! (NT) JohnG92 09:13:55 12/11/04 Sat
