    holy hell was that released right after I replied? I even went to their website and it only let me go as far as 2022!

    Travel schedule is brutal. Closest away game is Kirksville at 4+ Hours. NSIC offered them at least 4 road trips as close as that!

      Never understood the Cocks leaving a stable NSIC for the GLVC. UIU was strong in men's BB and wrestling at least. The road trips in the NSIC south were within 5 hours on interstate highways. Doubt they will be playing strong NSIC football teams anytime soon.

        Yeah I think they did it for competition sake, otherwise the move makes little sense. I will miss that logo on the roster, the field was great too.

          That entire conference was set up so they could be competitive with each other, support a lot of sports, and underfund them all.

            I don't know I guess 6 of their former members are now D1 so it can't be all that bad?

              IUP hasn't scheduled a Week 1 opponent for at least the past 3 seasons......

                FYI the GLVC was founded in 1978. It started sponsoring football in 2012.

                  I don't know about 2020 (COVID year cancellation), but IUP played New Haven in 2019; I can't recall if that was supposed to be home-and-home where the 2020 game was cancelled. And you're correct about the past two seasons. In the past decade, IUP hadn't scheduled a Week 1 opponent in 2015/2016 and 2021/2022.

                      I think they are pretty good in some sports, but offering a lot of sports is important to them. At least that's what I have gleaned from the boards here.

                        I didn't realize that. My comment still stands as far as the current iteration that includes football.

                        They seemed to attract members who value participating in a variety of sports over being super competitive in a handful of sports. I don't know if that has always been the case, but that is the reason I heard for Truman, Elwood, and others joining that conference.

                          Although, I always wondered if Elwood didn't go GLVC looking for a travel partner to move to D1 with them.

                            Central Washington picks up a Sep. 9th home game against NAIA Montana Tech, bringing them back to 10 games scheduled.

                              Lincoln-PA (CIAA) will travel to Post (IND) in Week 2.

                                And that will just about do it for this thread, other than an expected Post vs. Southern Connecticut game in Week 9.
