Northwestern State Football Cancels Season

[ZoomZoom]

McNeese picked up their "win" of the season this weekend as a result of the forfeit . Now 1-7 on the season

Not according to the standings this AM. McLeast’s best chance at a win is @ one win SLU.

The Demons need to shut it down for a year. It’s not like the program was even average. Start fresh, or even drop it.

Interesting. McNeese looks to be claiming it.

At 1-7 or 0-7, it still doesn't matter . Holy crap- this is a rough year for FCS schools in Louisiana. They are all struggling

From NWSU QB:

(NSU President Dr. Marcus Jones) and (Director of Athletics Kevin Bostian) have failed the players immensely. The canceling of the season was never about Ronnie. They used his unfortunate passing as a cop out," Vander Waal wrote.

"The lack of leadership was evident. As much as I respected coach Laird as a coach and a man, he didn't have any control of this team. As players, we were kept in the dark about everything. The decision makers here thought it was a good idea to cancel the season and take away the only structure we had? They thought it would be smart to take away these players' outlets during a time of grief?

"Where we go to be together and have fun and play the game we love? To cancel the season because we're not all mentally there and need more time to grieve and then start offseason workouts on Monday? No, I fully believe there was more to this decision that we will never know. This was just an easy way to get out of things."

SLC standings reflect a forfeit win now. Only fair so a 1/2 game in the standings won’t come into play. Kinda like Oprah doling out stuff…you get a win, you get a win….

I get the QB venting. But at the same time, you had a teammate arrested for obstruction. That team is not united. The university is going to spin the whole thing nice as possible and not expose anything or anyone law enforcement is investigating. Transfer out, file hardship with the NCAA and get away.
