      <![CDATA[Coach Billy “Spook” Murphy, whose tough resolve elevated Memphis State from “small college” to “major college” football status once bluntly stated that there are many in this town who do not want Tiger football to succeed - that is, unfortunately,  no less true today. Being aware of that and the deep-seated inferiority complex which is common to natives of our community, I fully expected the air of negativity and defeatism, exemplified by Greg Akers’ article (“War Games”) during the present period of  football difficulties.

      <![CDATA[There isn't much financial benefit from dropping down to a lower division; the real financial windfall woudl come from dropping football altogether. UM missed the boat, they should have been spending money, building an on campus stadium, etc., to upgrade football about 15-20 years ago.

      <![CDATA[this is definitely the correct course for the UofM. and I think this decision will be made for them in the near term as the superconference idea happens and breaks off to form its own classification (either within or outside of current NCAA structure).
