His attempt to bury football has succeeded and today I get this e-mail in my student account.....

2007 General Shale Brick

Atlantic Sun Conference Tennis Championship

ETSU will be hosting the 2007 General Shale Brick Atlantic Sun Conference Men

We are bragging about a #52 ranking????????????

Now my first question is: Does Pitt get media credentials for the big event?

The second: What's the over-under on attendance?

20-4 is a fine record.

Why they choose to belittle it by saying "We're No. 52!"- I don't know.

but it is probably because the ITA ranks the top 75 teams. This appears to be their best season. Coach Dave wasn't all he was cracked up to be and his protege seems to be having considerable more success.

I know its total Bush League. I said it earlier...its pretty pathetic we are bragging on this #52 ranking when dumpy Elon is ranked about 10 spots ahead of us. I bet Elon isn't acting like this.

I'm not trying to justify it...because I think its stupid, but Elon does it too.

[i]For the second consecutive season, No. 43 Elon will enter the 2007 Southern Conference Men

Well I didn't think they would but I guess Elon is about as Bush league as us...atleast they have a football team...although they did hire Hamilton which had to be considered one of the worst coach hirings in the history of the school.

To me it is almost an admission that you're a second-tier conference.

What is Elon's W-L record?
