Also in non-strike EMU news (well, sort of) is the above video and this link to EMU’s Ron English (and a couple players) talking Media Day stuff with the MAC folks.
I say “non-strike” news, but it is hard for me not to flinch/remember the stuff that the EMU-AAUP has been saying about how much money we’re spending on football. English starts talking about this at about the 3:20 point. And then at the end of the video, English talks about how he’s going to talk with everyone who has anything to do with the players: the parking attendants, the secretaries, etc. I wonder if he’ll talk to the faculty at all?
And I might be mis-remembering this entirely, but didn’t the previous football coach or previous athletic director come out with some kind of statement in favor of the faculty in the 2006 strike?
