What a great day! Nice to hear, or see, that ESPN is announcing it. Very nice job by all admin. I am a fan of Ron English. I think that he will be a big boost to the program. He is a good man. He is a good coach. He will also bring in some recruits that would like to play for him. Maybe some Def. guys that can fill some holes right off the bat. Maybe run the spred O... We'll see.

EMUSteve will like this particularly if he brings Loeffler. Two of UM's best recruiters.Also, the only two who were perceived as having shots at being head coachs'.

Just saw it on the ESPN news scroll. Wow! But like Cowboy said, it's not a done deal until the ink is dry...[/b]

Wow!! Congrats. This ought to make your game against U of M next year all the more interesting. New U of M regime vs old U of M regime.

I cant see Rich Rod getting things together all that quicky either.

I'd like to see EMU (along with WMU) become the next MAC schools to knock off Michigan.

JUST LIKE MY TOLEDO ROCKETS !!!

Congrats on your selection and may you be the next Buffalo and rise out of the depths of despair to become a contender for the MAC West title

I think Loeffler is ticketed for UofWashington as QB coach.

Doubt EMU could go high enough to get him as OC.

It would be nice if they could. That would be stunning and show something we'd never thought we'd see - an 'all out financial blitz' to turn the program around.

I believe Loeffler recruited MI, Ohio, etc. for UofM so that would make him ideal for recruiting.

great news. this is awesome. hopefully EMU students and alumni who don't normally attend games are equally excited.

The hire has already made its way to wikipedia. I love how quickly people rush to post stuff there. it's really an incredible phenomenon. We have a great historian culture.
