Celebrating by taking them to Cedar Point. That is just awesome! Find me another program that values and rewards academics the way we do.

Program has a positive buzz since Creighton was hired. Use any metric you like on the field off the field marketing social media fan interest. Honestly CC is the hardest working coach I've have ever seen. Every day every way he takes steps to make this program better. And the same for each and every member of the football staff. Its professional grade now. We've been blessed. I really hope this season more fans, more students and more alums will realize how special this program has become and participate by showing up, donations etc.

Truly a class operation that is setting priorities properly. I could sense the excitement and pride this morning when Alex texted me that they were heading to Cedar Point. The fact that the team earned this makes it so much more meaningful than any trip to South Africa just because your helmet is winged....

Great to see the classwork matters too. Congratulations, EMUFB!

Great news. Congrats to everyone.

I want to see picks of linemen squeezing into those roller coasters.

LOL...I was thinking about that earlier. Do they have a sign that says, "You must be smaller than THIS to ride this ride"?

Exactly! Captain khaki pants certainly doesn't 'earn' his outrageous salary, and the team certainly didn't 'earn' any exotic trips with their latest 62 pt. beatdown to their hated rivals.

Can it still even be considered a 'rivalry' when you've lost 14 out of the last 15?

If Hairball loses again this year, he should absolutely just quit in shame and walk away (without his normal list of excuses).

More than just a trip to Cedar Point...these types of things build character and strengthen team bonds....

A middle finger to the other programs.

Awesome to see the hard work pay off and the kids get rewarded. Top notch program with a top notch man at the helm. Hard to knock anything he has done here in Ypsilanti.

This is a direct result of Creighton and the type of kid he is recruiting. Buying in is a lot easier with guys that want to be better in class and on field. Awesome job to coaching staff of getting winners to EMU. Can't wait to see what they do this year. I've got 7-5 this year.

Yeah I like the work ethic since CC's arrival. You work hard but you get rewarded like Pike's Peak, Cedar Point, BQ at Warren Dunes. You work hard but you have fun doing it. Great motivation.

And wasn't EMUs 3.0 for the academic year? This 2.89 is just one semester.

Remember what the drill sarge said about Texas in Full Metal Jacket?

We dropped four sports a year ago.
We're laying off teachers.
We're laying of employees across campus.
Except basketball, all the other teams have higher grade point averages.

Taking the football team to an amusement park is another PR disaster. If they're trying to create further resentment of the football team on campus, they've finally found something they're good at.
