Subject: Re: CT Post - Trust me, SHU getting closer to success
In reply to: JoeStag 's message, "CT Post - Trust me, SHU getting closer to success" on 09:16:52am 12/06/05 Tue,

As I have posted previously, I would love to see the Stags and the Pioneers meet on the basketball court, preferably at Harbor Yards Arena once or twice a year. It would start quite a rivalry. I spoke with their athletic director, a previous Stag athletic director and Stag baseball player and coach, and they would take us on. However our present athletic director is very much opposed to the match. I think that this is not in our future best interest of the school. I believe a rivalry would be fun and interesting and cannot believe we are so provincial to not do it. Again, that is my personal feeling but I know that some of my alumni friends feel otherwise.

Who are the "administration" that a couple on this board think aren't behind athletics?

[> [> FU/SHU in other sports? -- NEC fan, 07:37:24pm 12/06/05 Tue, [1]

Just wondering, but has FU played SHU in any sport since the Pioneers have moved to DI?

FU has no problem sheduling other CT schools (QU, Hartford, CCSU, Yale, and of couse UCONN) in many sports, so what is the problem w/ SHU? What is the theory behind FU's not scheduling a local school?

I mean does Siena also avoid DI new comers Albany or Binghamton in all sports too? I didn't think so.

LAX play SHU last year, and lost. I do not think that loss destoyed out LAX program.

I think if Fairfield does not play CT schools then they run the risk of CT Fans having the perception that we purposely avoid playing CT Schools. Or run the risk of CT Fans thinking that we are so much better than everyone one else. Both of those perceptions are not good for us.
