I typically don't start these threads, though I do like to bump general join Crum threads because I want to pump up the world...
Anyway...
I have a simple challenge for anyone interested. Freedom in Crum has won the conference RPI crown probably the last 10 years running. We have the most successful DIII program in Crum history by far. Our East division is stacked and boasts 5 teams that made the Sweet Sixteen this season. However, a couple of our coaches left this season and we find ourselves with 4 sims at the moment. So why am I bringing this up now you ask? Because every sim is in a position for an easy rebuild. I honestly think I could put any of them in the Sweet Sixteen in 2 seasons.
So I offer the following challenge with a $20 gift certificate to the winner. Heck, I may even bump it to $25 if you can consistently be funnier and more entertaining than Starr on our CC.
Just make the 2nd round of the NT with one of these teams by your 4th season. That's it. Piece of cake imo. Just make the 2nd round of the NT in any of your first four seasons to be eligible to win the prize! In the event of multiple people entering my little contest, and more than one of you becoming eligible, the winner will be whatever coach takes his team the farthest in the NT in season 4 with RPI as the tiebreaker.

That's my challenge to you. And before you ask... No! I am not drunk rambling! It's a Wednesday night, man, come on. Some people have to work tomorrow! I am perfectly sane at the moment, I think, and am saving 3,000 rewards points to spend on you.
Signups for Crum open tomorrow (Thursday)!
P.S. if we fill up first, or you are too scared, please consider joining the world anyway. Ohio has a bunch of fun guys. There is the SoCal... USA South has the defending champs... Centennial is ok I guess if you can put up with aupat... :) jk
