Occidental wraps up its 2017 football season

Are they doing this cowardly? xdontknowx

They have only played 3 games so far and only have 30 plus remaining healthy players, and ONLY one healthy DL.

Sounds like the football team wanted to play and the administration wanted to shut them down. A Title IX has been filed on behalf of the football team for anti-male bias.

If they only have 30 players and one defensive lineman, it may be the right decision. But I don't know enough about them or DIII in general to say.

BTW, this is where Barack Obama went to college.

I think the Tigers will end their football program and the NCAA will start investigating the college, but I'm not sure when the investigation will start.

What will the NCAA investigate. Did the college not offer enough attendance-optional courses?

He went to Occidental for two years and transferred to Columbia from where he graduated, I think in 1983 or so.

The old timers are laughing, the ones that played both ways.

In high school my senior year I played every play in the first half in the August opener. I was feeling kind of dehydrated at halftime- the head coach said I could come off of the kick receive team. Since we won 8-0 I didn't get much relief.
