Injuries

After all the injuries we saw in the game, I was concerned that some might be serious enough to be season ending. The following quote from the article linked below by Jason Munz makes me feel a lot better.

"The Golden Eagles had several players on defense leave Saturday's game due to injuries, but Monken was upbeat Sunday about their status for the bowl game.

'We anticipate all those guys being ready to go," he said.' "

Lots of reasons to be happy to be an Eagle, not the least of

which is that Chip has turned down EKU, and maybe even ULM, according to press reports. I realize EKU has a good program and a university a wee bit larger than ours. But they are the fourth option in a football poor state, after UL UK, and WKU. They compete in a lower division, and other than being HC, why would he go there? There is no money there. I betcha the AD ponied up for him to stay here. Plus there are much better OC jobs open above us, and I think he might be the heir apparent here if Todd leaves next year. Anyway, I am glad he is staying, if he indeed is staying.
Way to go men's and women's basketball teams!
Way to go Eagle football!
Way to go Chip Lindsey!
It's a good day to be an eagle!
