**Ohio is only 300 above the 15 K

***That leaves 6 teams in the MAC, 8 teams required for a I-A Conf come 2005

Not really.

And I don't see the MAC falling below eight, hell or high water.

There are ways to bring in at least 15K if you need it to stay I-A. The MAC will be fine!

I agree that when push comes to shove that the schools in danger will find a way to make the 15K requirement. EMU went through this several years ago and rallied the entire community and averaged about 23k in 1995. It's amazing what can be accomplished when the time for talking is done and action needs to be taken. We will be fine.

You said it.....not me......therefore Marshall must do it. I know you aren't accusing Toledo of anything since you don't have anything on them. Just a bunch of message board crap that Marshall fans start all the time. You know.....it's that Midnight Blue Envy!
