No Towson

Towson will stay out of Wien Stadium this year


We're still a few weeks away from the official release of the 2009 football schedule, but 2008 opponent Towson already has its schedule printed on its Web site and Columbia is not on the docket. Towson's schedule is still an interesting read however, as the Tigers are taking on Big 10 member Northwestern and FCS powerhouse University of New Hampshire.

So, I still have no idea which two non-conference teams other than Fordham will be on our schedule in 2009.

Speaking of Fordham, the Rams had a very disappointing 2008 season overall and Patriot League sources tell me some of Head Coach Tom Masella's assistants are on their way out. So far, no official annoucement from Rose Hill.

And still no news from Yale. With Christmas just two days away, I think you have to assume the Elis won't be able to name a new head coach until after the new year. The jury is out on how this will effect the team and the rest of the league on the field next year.
