B-Rich Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 Unfortunately, I have no photos, but I've seen at least THREE defunct college football teams in person: Lamar (vs. Southern Miss), as well as Cal State -Fullerton and Wichita State (vs. LSU).Gosh, I guess I'm old... I also saw the New Orleans Jazz and San Diego Clippers in person.... It is what it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DG_ThenNowForever Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 Speaking of defunct college teams, does Georgetown still have a football team? If so, why? 1 hour ago, ShutUpLutz! said: and the drunken doodoobags jumping off the tops of SUV's/vans/RV's onto tables because, oh yeah, they are drunken drug abusing doodoobags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leopard88 Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 Speaking of defunct college teams, does Georgetown still have a football team? If so, why?Division I-AA, Patriot League.Why? Presumably because alums at most schools like football. The main reason so many schools continue to consider reviving/creating football programs despite the expense is that they hope to attract the alums who give to the schools by reminding them of autumn afternoons watching the old team march down the gridiron.

DrBear Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 For the record, the University of Chicago still plays in Division III in the University Athletic Association (other members: Brandeis, Carnegie Mellon, Case Western Reserve, Emory, NYU, Rochester and Washington-St. Louis. It's basically a Division III Ivy League emphasizing academics. Prior to that, from 1976-87, Chicago was a member of the Midwest Conference (schools including St. Norbert, Ripon, Coe, Illinois College, Knox and others). Football had been re-started in 1969.

no97 Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 Hey no97, UIC is a good one. I know a guy who played there from 92-96. And a shame...That was pre-Wolves, and I think if the team had played somewhere other than the Pavilion, and gotten more pub, it could have taken off. I still think college hockey could be a success in Chicago. Maybe DePaul (Allstate) or Northwestern (a campus rink)?Moose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Football had been re-started in 1969.I actually didn't know that Chicago had reinstated football until when I was searching for those pictures, I came across the Maroons' official athletic website. That's why I qualified qualified my post as University of Chicago playing in the Big Ten. From what I understand, Chicago still has a seat on the Big Ten academic committee or something like that.On a side note, I know it's been mentioned here on this forum before, but I still think it's interesting that the Racine-Chicago-St. Louis-Phoenix-Arizona Cardinals got their nickname from the second-hand Maroons' uniforms their owner bought for them back in 1901. Professional football's come a long way! Visit my store on REDBUBBLE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
