Ask him about Brokaw...Why did he throw Ruland out?  He now ends a very good football program...I think he should end his career as an Irish Christian Brother since he goes against their beliefs!!<br />

      <description><![CDATA[Mr. Michael Corcoran, Seaford, NY<p>I played on the M.A.A.C Champion team in 93. We had the support of the school administration and the student body. The championship game was at St. Johns and there  were about 15,000 people there and it seemed like all were from Iona. As a player on the field you could hear our student body chearing and chanting crazy things. We won the game and the crowd went insane, we turned it into a home game. There is no other sport that brings the students together like football, please support football.</p>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Matt Harrison<p>Bring it back.  This is the worst decision the school has ever made.  I was part of another program that folded after my freshman year which completed devastated me but Iona was there to give me another opportunity.  To see this again and know how it affects the players, coaches, and parents is devastating.  I encourage everyone to transfer as soon as possible to continue their careers in both academics and on the field.  Do not continue to support the school as they have turned their back on us</p>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Patricia Macias, Suffern, NY, United States of America<p>Giving up the football program at Iona would not only be sad in terms of tradition, but would also deter many young students from applying, and anger many alumni who I am sure contribute yearly to the college.  It&#039;s a bad idea, and there has to be another way.</p>]]></description>

They are out there through all kinds of weather cheering on the football team and to not have a team cuts there season in half. You will be doing more harm then good. We will lose alot of students if you make this decision.  No one will want to come to IONA. Please do us all a favor and keep football at IONA.</p>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Mr Joe Hili, Middle Village, New York, United States of America<p>To pull this program from all of these players who chose to go to your school is a joke.  These players came to IC to pay to play football.  That&#039;s dedication.  That&#039;s heart.  Not to mention, the football team shared the Conference title in 2007.  How did your other sports do? 3 wins in a 50 game baseball schedule?  That&#039;s a joke.  We ask the &quot;proud leadership&quot; at IC to make a good decision on this.  Where is the IC heart?  Where is the dedication back to the paying players?</p>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Jessica Morales<p>The football team brings so much to Iona College that many fail to recognize. You walk on campus and see a football field right in the middle of Iona and the first thing that comes to mind is football. These guys play out of heart, for they have no athletic scholarship, which shows a lot of character. I know for me personally, these players have so much pride for this team and this school. This program should at no point be terminated</p>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Officer Joseph McElroy, Staten Island, New York, United States of America<p>I have recently attended some of the Iona college football games and not to mention Homecoming. I grew up in Maryland and watched the Terps avidly. When I was introduced to the Iona &quot;experience&quot;, I received the same energy and excitement as those cold games in college park. To get rid of such a fine program would be a meaningless loss to students and fans. Whats a college with out a team? To take the morale away from the students and community would be a crime, leading to a drop in many areas.</p>]]></description>

If you take that away they there will be 100 more people on campus with no direction of goals to work toward, and they will otherwise keep themselves busy, don&#039;t take this away.</p>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Mrs Barbara Montanaro, Highland Mills, New York, United States of America<p>As a mother of three sons and one daughter, all of which have been involved in sports programs, I feel it is detrimental to a child&#039;s/adult development.  Football has been a major factor in our sons&#039; lives and it would be a shame for Iona to lose their program. Keep the dream of victory and keep the program.</p>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[ms Deb McFadden<p>The whole Iona campus revolves around the football season. Without it Iona will just be like any ordinary &quot;COMMUNITY COLLEGE&quot;. This would definately reduce the desires of future student applying to Iona. I hope this is a False action to disband the Football team!!!</p>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[David Kane, Katonah, NY<p>Very important to retain your football program. Many young men selected your university with your football program as an intricate part of their decision. This is not right and is quite frankly misleading and unethical. By desolving your program, you in effect have mislead these young men. You must stand up to your principals especially since you are a religous based instituion.</p>]]></description>
