Hoping for this, as well. Whatever has gone before, this site now stands as the national FCS board, and CSN provides written coverage of FCS like no other. I'd hate to think that a guy like Bruce Dowd might get lost in the aftermath. If nothing else, as long as he's writing I'll be linking his work.
Go Tribe!!!

Most of you know me from Any Given Saturday. If not, I am probably one of the more passionate FCS posters you'll come across. I promote this brand as hard as I can and try to be somewhat informative, particularly about the Southland Conference.

As unfortunate as it is to see such a "good friend" depart due to an owner that believed that FCS was "Division II", it is time to look ahead, so here I am! While I never made my way over to this board to post since posting on one national FCS board was time-consuming enough, I did lurk from time to time. Now, I am here and I am ready to talk about this great brand of football with all of you.

It is great to be reunited with good people through our love of the highest level of championship football the NCAA has to offer. I look forward to engaging in FCS talk and doing what I can to contribute to these forums.

So, let's get down to business and do what we do best - let's talk FCS!

Welcome aboard Tex!

If I'm not mistaken, my Gardner Webb Runnin' Bulldogs are coming your way next fall and I will be there to watch them. Looking forward to playing you guys without an OK rejected QB on the team. Good luck with your recruiting. I look forward to hooking up with you as the game gets closer.

Go Runnin' Bulldogs!

I concur on getting CSN involved. College football is much more interesting when you have good, knowledgable writing and some good pics too. Both are provided by CSN and their contributions made AGS a solid site.

Go Runnin' Bulldogs!

I agree and links about FCS football will never be deleted here, no matter what the source. :thumb:

As far as CSN goes, I hope those guys come over and post their articles here. It appears that Ralph has upgraded Collegesportingnews.com and hopefully he'll work with Chris to get that info over here.

I've email Chuck Burton too inviting him over here, but I haven't seen him yet.

I've linked to a few of the articles from CSN in my posts. Encourage everyone to go over there, because they now have blog(s) over there and this is just great coverage for FCS!

Glad to see you here Jason. You still writing for Ralph these days?

One thing I think you will see here is that the mods are MUCH MUCH better than the ones at AGS. This is a much more friendly atmosphere. I have yet to run across a jerk poster here. I was welcomed with open arms when I came over and you certainly have been as well. Have anyone else from AGS you knew come over as well. The more FCS talk the better!

Still writing - latest column and quite a few blogs are up on CSN.

I think that AGS is coming back - just got that hunch - but even then, I think we need to have more open dialogue and more people posting on BOTH boards. Each, I am sure will have its unique personalities (i.e. AGS has Mr. Chicken and CS.com has D1B), but both can co-exist.

That is good to hear. I am sure they are good!

I hope AGS comes back for everyone else's sake but as I said over here before, I will not be posting there anymore. CS.com is my new home. I have never been treated over here like Retro, Ralph, etc. all did over there. When I bring information here I don't get talked down to and hated on by Ralph because of some stupid grudge he holds over me. The people who run this are much friendlier.

I'm sure as hell glad you're here SCFBF. It's obvious you have a lot of knowledge of FCS, as well solid connections and inside sources to the NFL. You provide a lot of valuable information that I'm sure most everyone appreciates. :thumb:

I really do not think there's anything to cover. What is in the past, is in the past, but if you want me to discuss it, here goes. I assure you this is the final time that I will discuss it, as apparently my previous effort was for not.

I was never opposed to CS.com, butI was loyal to AGS - a community that I was apart of for a long run, as you all know.

Some of the things said on both sides were nasty and uncalled for. A quick glance at threads involving yours truly, show that the nasty remarks by a select few even carried into a thread regarding my 18 year old brother's passing. Clearly, very inappropriate - though I do understand that some individuals will just be immature and I can be thick skinned if I need to.

I think my role with AGS was relatively confused...
Since you are going to take such a stand, then let's make things clear.

I don't care one bit about the site rivalry between AGS and CS. I really don't care that much about you. What I do care about is the fact that you have a personal beef with ONE SCHOOL that you have decided to launch into a lifelong diatribe of lies, innuendo, misinformation, and outright slander toward HBCUs and their alums. That, my friend, includes me, and I WILL defend me and mine at all times.

Now, for the record, I was opposed then and am still opposed to those posts which went after you and your family in your time of bereavement. That was wrong of those posters, and I do not support that.

Your role with AGS is not germain to this situation- at least with me- it is your diarrea la voca. Keep it up, but trust and believe, I will STILL be here exposing your crap- and you- nor anyone you have a "relationship" with can erase threads or ban me here, Jason.
