Wrap it up, Round them up, Send them out!


Final day of business for a couple of weeks here in Ole Football - just wrapping up some last minute roster, golf tourney, recruiting and summer calendar items. Of course, there is always time to celebrate when St. Olaf receives national recognition on some aspect of our wonder school. This time, it was for the sheer beauty of St. Olaf: http://www.insidecollege.com/reno/The-Experts-Choice-Most-Beautiful-Campuses/701/list.do

In about 10 minutes we are going to have a staff meeting to ensure that all the things we need to have done before we take off for our vacation are done. It is odd but for a group of guys that work together so many hours we really don't see each other much. After we take care of our business, I am going to wish my staff well and kick them out of the office and we are all going to take a much-deserved break until the Ole Football Golf Tournament on July 19.

August 14 is right around the corner and we are all very excited for the day to come. A lot of work needs to be put in between now and then but we feel very good about where we are at right now. If you have been a fan of Ole Football for some time, you are going to notice some new things this fall. It is a great time to be an Ole!

On behalf of the Ole Football Family, I want to first thank our men and women serving in the military preserving the freedom that we will celebrate this weekend. Second, I want to wish all of you a safe and joyous July 4th weekend.

GO OLES!
