Well maybe people will actually listen to him now that hes a big boy. That doesn't mean I like him anymore, I still think hes a girl. But at least hes giving the MAC credit

wha'O

how bout those "Babes of the Brug" ???

Suprised they didn't even mention Omar...I know they needed to insert Brucie in their since Pittsburgh is his home town, but still....he has video game stats and apparently made any fantasy leaguer who had the foresite to recruit him very happy.

Remember, Omar is no Charlie Frye.

I think the success we are having in the MAC is great. I think it hurts the lower-half teams in major conferences more than anything. The Michigans and THAT Ohio State University [sic] will always do well. But if you are a decent QB prospect getting recruited by BGSU, Miami, and Indiana, what school will you think gives you the best chance to be on TV, and win lots of games? And the kind of attention the MAC is getting is national now, not regional. This isn't as true as it is for line positions, but a good MAC team can now be a credible recruiting force nationally for some positions. The kind of low-end blue chip talent like this, won't care as much about where Oxford, Bowling Green, Boise, or DeKalb is, its the program he cares about.

That makes major conference programs thinner and thinner.
