Re: Conference Realignment
I actually think it will be a mistake for UMass to join CUSA if Charlie Baker's plan goes through in some shape or form. Why? CUSA won't be 1-A. Neither will the MAC or Sun Belt. You do not need to have a football program to opt in so I feel like the Big East schools will opt in along with Gonzaga,...

Re: Festivus Holiday Post: Airing of Grievances About the Mullins Center (aka The Bill)
I was a season ticket holder when the Mullins Center Opened. We were good, ranked number 1 in the country at times. Impossible to get tickets if you didn’t have one. Lot of fair weather fans in those days(I.e, John Kerry).Place was pure bedlam. The difference between then and now is we were GOOD ba...

Re: Festivus Holiday Post: Airing of Grievances About the Mullins Center (aka The Bill)
When the Mullin Center opened, Men's BB sold out the arena. Attendance will improve if the team consistently wins again. When that happens, improve the opponents that visit the Mullin Center. Yes. But, they still need to add rows closer to the court in the student endzone. The seats were closer whe...

Another dagger to college football. The rich get richer. https://sports.yahoo.com/ncaa-proposing-new-college-athletics-subdivision-rooted-in-direct-athlete-compensation-145051537.html Yeah - this would be the nail in the coffin for at least half of FBS football and an even larger percentage of D1 b...

Re: transfer portal 2024
Question. Players are allowed to declare for the draft then return to college with eligibility if they don’t like their projected draft status. What if this happens to KLA. Would he return to UMass or enter the portal? Nope. When they declare they are giving up any remaining eligibility. There is n...

Re: Game 5, 2023-24: South Florida (12/2)
People on Twitter say otherwise. And even if you're right, he can't sit someplace else? It has to be in our perpetually empty student section? No more bitching about student attendance if so. Students would probably want the student section to be a student section. He might be a nice guy. He defini...

Greenfield Recorder columnist Chip Ainsworth takes Bamford to task https://www.recorder.com/Keeping-Score-UMass-football-once-again-in-the-crossfire-53214869 It's a little unnecessary for Chip to report on the SID's salary. The guy's just doing his job. It's on Bamford to face the music in this one...

Re: Game 5, 2023-24: South Florida (12/2)
Can we get this fucking weirdo out of our student section? Bruh, relax. He’s a really nice guy with autism who is a diehard UMass fan. Has never done anything wrong. People on Twitter say otherwise. And even if you're right, he can't sit someplace else? It has to be in our perpetually empty student...

Re: transfer portal 2024
Just saw KLA declaring for the draft. Absolutely hate to see him leave, but it's the dream so I wish all the best for the kid. Was a pleasure watching him play this year, very talented. Best of luck to him in a pro career Lots of players declaring for the draft. pro day should be exciting. I get it...

Re: Conference Realignment
OK, think we are screwed. Bamford turned down the MAC in 2022 with WKU needing a partner and not sure our President will bless CUSA. If our AD is serious about the MAC, he needs to be at Ford Field for the MAC Championship game. Instead, he schedule Ed Ruben donation celebration at the basketball g...

Re: transfer portal 2024
How many times do I have to say this? I want the rule changed back to pre Covid, you guys don’t need to keep explaining it, I fully understand how the rule goes. It probably does level the playing field with coaches but how many coaches are going to 3 or 4 schools over a 4-5 year period? Answer: ze...

Re: transfer portal 2024
I'm hoping they do away with being able to transfer as an undergrad and not sit out. It's especially killing fan interest in basketball with all this team hopping. Division 1 was the only division that had the sit out rule. The one time transfer without sitting out is something I have gotten used t...

Re: transfer portal 2024
NCAA needs to reinstitute the sit out year if transferring between D1 institutions. Wasn't this only supposed to be during the beginning of COVID initially when they first did this? The kids entering the portal right now are all graduate transfers. The extra Covid year is a contributing factor for ...
