MEC FALL PLANS

[Ram040506]

Absent any other info (hard to come by in a DII), I'd say it is normal churn...start seeing 5+ players transfering, then I'd think somthing is going on.

So is Shepherd playing any football this spring? Saw a report saying that they want to but no information on who they might play.

They are hoping to get possibly 1 or 2 games in at the end of spring ball. Doesn't look good though, lot of politics and protocols to deal with between universities in different states seems to be a major hold up. I'd think its just going to be a LONG spring practice routine of about 6 weeks unfortunately though. Hopefully everyone stays healthy, I think the Rams are going to have a hell of a team in the fall.

Speaking of Fairmont... I see that Ramal Faunteroy (DL Coach) kind of abruptly left the program. Also, 2 players that I believe were key parts of a good defense transferred out of the program this spring as well. Are things unraveling a bit down in Fairmont or is this just normal attrition?

players would lose a season of eligibility if a 7th game was played

I may be looking at old information, but as of November 2020, this document seems to imply a 10 game max:

With both the MEC and GMAC playing this spring and coupled with the dramatically improving Covid situation, I wonder if there might be an opportunity for the MEC Champ and the GMAC Champ to play an "SR1 Championship Game?"

30 days until the beginning of the MEC football season! MEC just announced a change to it's attendance policy. Effective March 11, schools, in accordance with state and local guidance, will be premitted to have fans in the stands. Given the dramatic decline in Covid cases in most areas in the MEC footprint, this is probably a sane process.

LET THE GAMES BEGIN!!

The plan from what i heard will be 5+1 starting around February. The conference will be split between a north and south. play 5 games and the corresponding ranks play each other.
North #1 plays South #1 etc.

The conference website hasn't had a single story or update about anything since Oct 9. So, if someone has second hand info, please share.
