He shared a bit of his coaching strategy with me and I was immediately impressed. Mike Fregeau has been a defensive coach at Bethel for over 16 years. Prior to heading back to the airport, I sat briefly with a member of Bethel’s football coaching staff. I wish everyone could have the chance to see what I saw on Monday I returned from Bethel with great optimism about the future, and with a few words of wisdom. Bethel is an amazing, energetic environment for Christian students, and their faculty is largely responsible. Students are hungry to dig deeper into the evidence and over 200 of those in attendance signed up for free downloadable Case Making materials before I even got off the stage. I challenged the student body to go the extra mile to learn why Christianity is true so they can better defend it once they leave the safety of Bethel. Campus Pastor Laurel Bunker invited me to teach as part of their Tru?tworthy Chapel series. Presbyterian’s next game is on October 8th against Morehead State.A few years back I spoke at Bethel University and had the chance to visit with several students and professors afterward. Even if that doesn’t come true, we will likely never again see a team in this sport win by 65 and lose by 72 in back-to-back games. It’s entirely possible that in 10 years we’ll be watching Kevin Kelley coaching in a 83-63 no-kick Super Bowl. Grinnell was regularly shooting 50+ three-pointers per game years before the Splash Bros changed the NBA. My point being, we could be witnessing the nascent days of the future of the sport. I’m reminded of the men’s basketball team at Grinnell College, where coach Dave Arseneault’s system resulted in games like a 179-104 win in 2012 where a Grinnell guard scored 138 points. I live for this unnecessarily messy team and their gaudy box scores. Who cares about a 2-2 FCS team?ĭear reader, I do. Presbyterian College is currently 2-2 with an average margin of victory of 53 points and an average margin of defeat of 46. In a whiplash game, PC actually led 23-0 at one point before giving up 49 consecutive points. EqSn3rp4MT- The Artist Formerly Known as September 18, 2021Īnd this past Saturday they took yet another thumping, losing to Dayton 63-43. Coach Kevin Kelley is the former high school coach who never punted and from the looks of this one I don't think they'll do it much at the FCS level. One of the rarest sights in college football in 2021: A Presbyterian punt. Presbyterian never punted, never kicked a field goal, and only averaged 27 yards on their kickoff attempts, which are nearly always onside kicks. With only 38 completions in the game, 26 percent of his passes ended up in the end zone. Presbyterian won the game 84-43, with sophomore quarterback Ren Hefley setting an FCS record with 10 (yes, ten) touchdowns. Just one month into Presbyterian’s season it’s safe to say the Blue Hose are likely in the midst of the single most chaotic season a college football team has ever played. His name was even floated for the Kansas head coaching job earlier this year, before he accepted the role at Presbyterian.

Judge for yourself, watch the linked video then watch us live. Maybe he should be the coach "who exaggerates?" Hmmm, so we hired the coach "who never punts."
