Overmatched. The school is putting few scholarships and little resources into the program compared to the competition in the MAAC league. Some schools like Mercyhurst who are not Div 1 in their other sports are concentrating the bulk of the scholarships and resources into making hockey their only div 1 premier sport. FF has established tiers for its different sports and i do not thing hockey is a tier one sport. Anyone else no more info?

A couple of years ago they were out here to play Wayne State Univ. I thought they showed some promise as they had a young team & they were competitive with a very good WSU team. In fact that year they made the league playoffs. Don't know what's happened since but if we're not giving enough scholarships that could be a factor.

Frankly I'd rather see the school upgrade the hockey program & forget about football where we'll never be better than a lower tier 1A school. With just a few scholarships we could be very competitive.
