Great to hear! He’s a helluva football player.

A year ago, who would have thought that one of the top defensive teams in the country in D3 would be interested in a defensive player from PNG. I agree with Usetocould that ETBU could be a good choice for any player from PNG. Two teams from their conference were ranked in the top 10 in D3 last year, and one of them made it all the way to the semifinals. They have a new head coach that won multiple state championships at Cedar Hill HS. Could be a great opportunity to not only play, but to play on a team that would have a pretty good chance for success in the next few years.

The HC told me over the phone they needed to have a 3.0 weighted GPA but absolute minimum of 2.75 (when he said it I sensed “and now for the bad news” energy.
I told him I would be surprised if there were more than a handful of players on the team that had below a 3.0 (I don’t know that for sure but if I found out otherwise I would be surprised)
Needless to say he was speechlessly stunned for a couple of seconds in disbelief
He’s probably used to most of the NETx programs where that’s a deal breaker. (GPA)
I can potentially see PNG as a pipeline for them.
I guess I’ll have to make it up to Marshall to see a few games on Saturdays now (I’ve never been to a football game there and we didn’t have football when I was there)

And the GOOD news for the on-the-bubble players who have the drive
If you can get there (attending) even If not recruited you can walk on with at least “similar” benefits of the recruited players
Basically just go prove yourself
(And do it amongst old friends)
So in summary GPA etc is key (not sure how much ACT SAT plays into it
But you can play football along with the other teammates ALSO on academic scholarships. And go win a DIII NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP

I would call or email the athletic secretary and/or Coach Joseph and leave the message and contact info. They can get it to a Chance.

UMHB and Texas Lutheran aren’t far from me in Austin, and ETBU is close to one of my employer’s locations in Marshall. If my schedule allows, I would gladly go see some of those games.

As far as we know have any other players at least had viable offers from colleges ?
(Which is baffling to me)

That’s what I told the HC
Of course no one believes in the purple wave until they see it themselves
It’s a tiny stadium
