Thanks for sharing. Always nice to see positive Bronco articles especially from Detroit where the focus is on some of the other state schools in proximity to Detroit.

Dave Giorski is a WMU alum. He regularly is in the press box and writes good stuff about WMU. In contrast Terry Foster is a CMU grad and writes less than glowing things about his Alma Mater. He's clearly a Pig Ten guy.

Then he should know Greg Mancz was MAC POY not Jarvion Franklin as he states in the article.

Nah. Your guy won some leadership award. Not Player of the Anything.

Umm you do realize that the Vern Smith award is given to the top football player in the conference, OVERALL... right?

So the editors deleted the term "offensive" from the article.

Always proud to be a Bronco, RTB.

Almost like deleting/omitting West from MAC West Champ.

Ron English won MAC (the whole MAC) coach of the year for EMU some years back by making them 6-6. I found that kind of amusing, yet, very deserving.

PJ likes the idea of scheduling up? Does his minions know that?

FIFY

They don't have to. Fleck gets-does whatever he wants.

Tough to "become nationally prominent" in football, as AD was recently quoted, without playing and beating the Big Boys.

I would say play the likes of Illinois/Indiana/NW/BC -- THEN think of moving up to MSU/OSU. :)
