Naz vs DLS is being played Thursday night due to Giod Friday. What other games are Thursday?

Again I'm looking at more of places that maybe have the potential to be turned into something much better if they had the ability to throw some $$$ around.

Which ones and what additions/improvements would you make...

Me?

Oswego...great football programs and great support both Oswego's need turf now.

Has Stagg or Thornton hired a coach yet?

Who ya got? What would make your team's stadium better?

Maine South has a great atmosphere. Stevie has a nice set up. Have not been to new MC stadium, but heard that was pretty cool. I love GBW.

Anyone have any information on the Romeoville will be opening or will they hire from within?

Also anyone have any updates on the stagg opening?

I

16-0 East, end of first quarter

Naz at the podium from Saturday
