Why was it ever? Let's fuck that "land grant" forced rivalry. Fuck them, but for other reasons.

I had a jacket just like that in high school. The buttons over top of the zipper got old.

The bye week move is great news - I'd love it to be the NW game being moved.

WBH says this is Frey's team. Could be, I say it'll be Messiah's team. Spring football should be interesting.

George and his plan to modernize the look by wrapping everything in black. JFC. Everything in that pic looks like it was purchased at Big Lots, including the coach.

I would take AIDS over never having a season like this ever again and beating scum 6/10 times forever.

IT looks like Fleck will be back at WMU. Do the Broncos come in EL as favorites on 9/16?

It seems to me like something is up with Fleck. I can't remember the last time a coach was considered a hot up-and-comer like this and wasn't plucked from his small school.

Maybe he's putting the brakes on any talk right now. Cotton Bowl will be the most exciting thing for that program ever. Gotta be focused on that.

If that's the case then I commend his loyalty to his team. He's essentially sacrificing his own personal/professional development for WMU's greater good.

Maybe he also likes raising his kids in Kalamazoo. For now.
