And Austin Collie and Kehl and Pitta...basically everybody who played in the MWC
who realized that the G5 conference championship doesn't mean anything. Playing the big games were what defined the season...not beating up the sister's of the poor.

No truth in this. What team is out of the conference race at 0-2? With 7-8 left

Not just drage. The majority of former players want us to go back.

It's the truth. We are much better off being in a conference. Beyond obvious.

The only reason why we can't go back now is that it signals we have given up.
