[Coach Spencer @CoachSpence_NCC]

Jeff Thorne was my mentor and friend. He was a leader on the field, a builder of character, and a source of inspiration for everyone who wore the Cardinal uniform and the coaches who worked by his side. His passion for the game and his commitment to developing All-American teammates, husbands, and fathers will endure as part of his remarkable legacy at North Central.
I am thankful for the precious time I and our entire team had with him this fall for his Hall of Fame induction, our “Refuse to Lose: Cardinals for a Cure” game dedicated in his honor, and his Friday night pregame message to our team.
He lived his life as a faithful servant and devoted man of Christ. I am comforted knowing that he is now resting in the presence of our Savior.
My deepest condolences to Jeff’s wife, Joanna, and their beautiful family, his siblings, and his parents, all of whom are forever part of the Cardinal football family. The Cardinals will carry Jeff’s relentless “Refuse to Lose” spirit into every snap, every game, and every season. #WeAreNC

Unfortunate news to share this morning. The world has lost a great man. Jeff Thorne is now in Heaven. Thorne, who led his North Central College team to the 2019 National Championship, had been fighting stomach cancer. Today, Jeff rests in peace with his Lord and Savior. May God share His peace with the Thorne family.

My youngest, Lauren, got to drop me off for infusion #7.

Grateful for the healing hands of Jesus that have been at work in me shrinking my tumor, limiting any chemo side effects and carrying me on those few days I couldn’t carry myself!

God is GOOD!

@MWC0911 I agree. They look like practice jerseys to me but the concept is dope.

Crazy NCC stat time for Augie week

Luke Lehnen is 1 TD away (177) from the all time TDs responsible record. He’s also appx 1000 yds away from the all time yds record

However, he has sat the equivalent of 10 games or 1 full season (2nd half) in his 3.5 seasons

Insane

“We didn’t lose him, he’s at Alabama. We know exactly where he’s at… Alabama stole our kicker. They illegally recruited our kicker and stole him from us. Thats a fact.”

Miami (OH) HC Chuck Martin kept it real

Absolutely

[NCC Cardinals @NCC_Athletics]

One of @NCAADIII's most dynamic playmakers will begin competing for an @NFL roster in May, as DeAngelo Hardy has signed w/@Ravens as an undrafted free agent.

Hardy ranks 7th in #d3fb history w/a @football_ncc record 58 touchdown receptions.

@The3rd_Division Easy to attack the easy target. Early 2000’s NCC wasn’t on the map. John Thorne and co. took on a challenge and turned a program into a powerhouse. Even with a surprising Stagg Bowl loss, don’t think for a second NCC is done…

[PJ Crotty @Kid_Crotty]

MVP does not go to the most athletic player on the field. Rarely ever. Cowered’s deliberate hate towards Tua is an easy target in terms of if he does not win a Super Bowl, Cowerd wins. BS reporting. Trying to tear down a genuine people leader and winner. It’s sad @ColinCowherd

[Joe Schad @schadjoe]

“Tua and Lamar Jackson? Same breath? Stop it. Purdy and Lamar Jackson? Same breath? Last night we saw what a Most Valuable Player looks like. You ever watch a game and think Tua is the best athlete on the field?” - Colin Cowherd
