Apparently we need the cash.

On another site, I took the reasonble rational approach and expressed my displeasure with my alma mater cancelling the game six months before it is to be played.


However, now I am on this site, so SCREW DELAWARE and gimme the money honey:lol:

You will not get any shit for it though. But if the Griz do anything like this, let me tell you boy. The flamers come out.

Oh they're catching shit for it. You would think it was two weeks before game time instead of six months.

Well I am saddened and glad at the same time. Glad to hear other teams get it like we did a few years ago, and saddened that they get it at all. They will have plenty of time to get another team to play. FCS or otherwise.

They're quite pissed. To cancel the game, not that big a deal, but do it further out. Navy backed out of a game with us in 2010 a year ago, 2 yrs before the game. There's a real small unattractive list of teams at this point that don't have their schedule set.

To walk in UD's shoes, look at your own teams schedule & yank the most attractive FCS OOC game.....

Yeah that is pretty shitty on their part. Where is UD looking to pick up a game, or rather where are fans talking about?

For NAU - that would be Southern Utah :lol:

And I would much rather play a "GoreTex" Bowl against Delaware than Ft. Lewis.

The rumor is that a UD-DelState game may happen.

Well, not quite the marque game UD had wanted, but more winnable.

Wofford is only playing an 11 game schedule this year.
