That brings up a question - what college football team (if any) do Alaskans tend to support with significant enthusiasm?

Washington - due to relative proximity? Some other team? Or none at all?
Team Bernard all the way!!!

Team Bernard: Curling

I say college sports players on teams should get 100% scholarships to pay for college.

For all sports, both men and women?

Yes for all sports teams college. both men and women.

I went to college at Columbus State Institute in Columbus, Ohio. Majored in Law Enforcement. I worked during high school as a police cadet at Upper Arlington, Ohio Police Department for about seven years.

Do you have any idea how cost prohibitive that would be?

You would have to give scholarships to every cross country runner, every golfer, and every wrestler.

Nothing against those athletes (Harrier ran cross country in college - hence his name), but guaranteeing every athlete a full ride is just not feasible.

So you're a hound dog that ran cross country for the University of Tennessee?

No. Harrier was not a Tennessee Volunteer.

Harrier ran for a rather large community college in Southern California.

Harrier was a fan of Todd Williams, who was the premier men's 10,000 meter runner in the United States in the late 1990's, ran for the University of Tennessee, and also did rather well in cross country competitions and marathons.

"Harrier" is a synonym for cross country runner.

Harrier also likes the Harrier AV-8B, vertical take-off and landing capable aircraft used by the U.S. Marine Corps.
