How it started. How it’s going.

@joshgroth Video was taken with almost still an hour to go before kickoff. Freeze on scoreboard countdown

VIKINGS ADVANCE!
Men's Soccer takes Oglethorpe to double overtime and wins on penalty kicks 4-2! They will take on Trinity tomorrow at 3:00PM! #BattleBerry

@HankMavenstein @CoachD178 It’s the other way around Hank. At D3 schools, the student-athletes generally have a higher avg GOA than then non-athletes.

[Luke Syverson @CoachLukeSy]

@quickturn97 @Don_K_Williams It isn’t a matter of they “can’t”. D3 chooses not to. Doesn’t want to. It is what makes them different and what is good and right about college athletics. They all agree to a standard and uphold it. D1 used to agree to abide by rules but don’t want to anymore.

PEOPLE WHO TREAT THEIR BIRTHDAY LIKE AN ORDINARY DAY OFTEN HAVE THESE 8 TRAITS:

1. They’re used to handling everything on their own.

@RichContartesi D3 Coaches have no say in admissions or financial aid decisions. It is actually an NCAA violation. Bad advice from someone who clearly doesn’t know how it works.

“Your child’s assignment is in ParentVue. Have you checked Canvas? The homework is in EduSpot. The grades are available on Teacherly. I mentioned this in the WhatsApp group. It was literally sent to your comcast dot net email address. Canvas has it for you. It’s in Canvas.”

HOT TAKE: Some adults need to stop talking kids out of Division III football.

“D3 doesn’t give athletic scholarships.”

“You’re going to go into debt.”

“Why would you play there if you can go D2?”

“You won’t get NIL”

Okay.

Now tell me the FINAL cost of attendance.

Tell me the academic aid package.

Tell me the grants.

Tell me the major.

Tell me the graduation rate.

Tell me what that degree can do for him.

Tell me what the D2 school actually costs AFTER the athletic scholarship.

Because a $15,000 athletic scholarship at one school can still leave a family paying more than a D3 school offering $0 in athletic money.

D3 isn’t automatically the right choice.

But neither is D1 or D2.

You dismissing an opportunity because of the division beside the school’s name is lazy recruiting advice.

Evaluate the opportunity and get an understanding of the whole picture

@Ria_Martin Welp, that was short lived 😩🤦🏽‍♂️

Playing in front of just your parents in empty gyms in D1 ASUN, Big South, OVC, or SoCon vs. “It’S jUsT d3” @BerryVolleyball @NCAADIII @D3Direct @D3VbWest @D3VB @SAA_Sports #VB #Volleyball

[Luke Syverson @CoachLukeSy]

@D3Direct Technically, “captains” practices are violations in D3 but can be a gray area that many coaches abuse. If the coach tells the leaders “hey, you guys should be getting together to play” then it is under the direction of the coach and a violation. If they report back, same

Remarkable statistic:

Prior to Western Michigan, college football teams were 110,352 - 0 when leading after the end of regulation, dating back to 1869.

[NFL Memes @NFLMemes]

Storming the field after needing a illegitimate hail mary to beat a MAC team you were favored by to beat at home by 28 points is the most pathetic field storming ever 🥀
