This is all a very small price to pay for the carrot at the end of the stick.

No it isn't. The world is ending. Clearly econ was right the whole time... we just didn't see it until now. If we can't play for the CAA Championship this year, we should just fold the program.

The CAA is run in an idiotic fashion. fabricating assinine rules that make no sense, serve no purpose, and primarily punish the fans of all CAA teams is further evidence that chuck boone & tom yeager are not exactly the brightest bulbs in the football world. and its hardly surprising that tabz and ivy have their collective feet planted firmly in thin air yet again. its like old home week.  |

I.V. WTF? I have not responded to this thread, and not had a negative post on FB since the D1 decision happened. I have been nothing but supportive.
OLD TAPES = SMALL MINDS. I am not your straw man - back off.

Will be in the preseason poll but not standings. Players can still win awards.
| Quote: | | “The overwhelming reason to move them to 0-0 the entire season was more of an indicator to the selection committee that UMass was not holding a spot in our standings, when it wasn’t eligible for postseason,” CAA spokesman Scott Meyer said in an email. |

| This moronic position by the hapless and idiotic uni-toothed mouth breathing rednecks who are running the caa football continues to be a hilariously stupid business decision by the league. |

The players, coaches and many fans care. If you don't care thats cool, but alot of folks do care and we are also most certainly looking ahead. |

It would be nice to go out with a championship. Makes the CAA seem like a bunch of spoiled children.

Jack, I'll bet you a dollar that the players, coaches and most fans would like to do away with this season all together and move up right now. Can you imagine how excited they must be? I certainly am. Once we actually make the move and start playing our games at Gillette we're going to forget about the CAA and never look back.
