Would be nice to have a viable JUCO to stick kids into that's right in our backyard.

Noticed that the first four games have final scores listed but also have "forfeit loss" coded in. How could there be final scores but also "forfeit" listed? Hard to take seriously a program that has a chief of university police as unpaid head coach. Any ideas on who might be available to coach?

Monroe Slavin? ;-) Sounds like maybe that guy from Stebenville, their big star, turned out to be ineligible, or something of that nature.

Not sure many will be lining up for that gig. As for the scores, in the sport of Football, when a forfeit occurs after the game is played, the score is marked with an asterisk, but remains listed. If a forfeit would occur before the game was played the score in college football is noted as 1-0. In the NFL the score is noted as 2-0 Last Edited: 11/17/2015 1:36:43 PM by BillyTheCat Back to Top OhioCatFan General User Member Since: 12/20/2004 Location: Athens, OH Post Count: 14,405 Status: Offline     RE: Hocking College Football    Posted: 11/17/2015 1:42:15 PM  Here's what I found, all the early games are listed as forfeit losses, other games are listed as "earned loses." http://stats.njcaa.org/sports/fball/2015-16/schedule?team... I thought that in college a forfeit was recorded as a 1-0 loss if the team that forfeited had won the game on the field, but was recorded with the actual score if the forfeiting team had lost on the field.

Ineligible player used? Team quit before end of game? Etc?

But if you notice after the forfeits there has not been one local news story regarding the team, before it was weekly coverage of the convincing wins.

I remember these early stories and now I really wonder what happened. Seems like it almost has to be an ineligible player -- maybe our friend from Steubenville or maybe someone else. The only other options that I could think of would be something even worse like paying off a referee or greasing the cleats of the opposing team. But these seem very far-fetched and extremely unlikely. The only BLSS Certified Hypocrite on BA "It is better to be an optimist and be proven a fool than to be a pessimist and be proven right."

But these seem very far-fetched and extremely unlikely. Given how the offensive production went to nothing, I'd say multiple players. Appears both basketball teams have forfeited games as well.
