I wonder if DelState will pick up a couple of the higher end Wesley FB players.
Still have fond memories of Mike Drass. God rest his soul...

That's a shame but you knew that was coming with the DSU acquisition. At least I figured it would...

Extremely sad to see it go. I played Basketball there in 77/78

Agreed the writing is was on the wall, actually surprised by how surprised people are on Delaware Online.

End of day there are NCAA rules around what level your teams can be in the same school etc so with D1AA football they had to kill a bunhc of the stuff or bring it to a higher level.

In addition the costs associated with keeping two sets of sports, etc.

Sucks but not surprised.

Yes, Winnie. " Pat you're always laughing"Me-" I changed my attitude Mr Wentworth" " OK Pat you can come out on the 15th"
The guy gave me a 2nd chance and I loved him for it

Also known as "Goony Bird" because of the nose and his pacing back and forth

Kobasa is one of my favorite people in De basketball history. Great guy, love talking to him

Mike Drass was one of my favorites. Had a great sense of humor and poked fun at himself..

I loved Winnie and Baseball Coach Bob Andrews - Bob's famous line "Son! What the hell do you think you're doing???"
