“Of the 105 players on its current roster, 85 are from our state. Eight of their 11 full-time coaches, including Best, are from Washington.”

After yesterday’s nail biting win and advancement to the semi-finals next week I thought EWU needed some love in here. Always been a fan, but didn’t realize how much home cookin was going on at Eastern. Great to see and go eags!

Great post! Lots of really good football players in these smaller programs. This program goes far in the playoffs almost every year.

EWU, 2010 National Champions!

Maybe way more in the NFL than other Big Sky teams. NDSU has 8 on NFL rosters with 2 starters. Congrats to EWU on their great season. Should be a good game in Frisco.

Good catch. It was Big Sky not FCS. Article was right and I was wrong:

“Last weekend STATS reported there are 157 players from 71 different FCS schools on regular season rosters, but Eastern is the only Big Sky school with more than two. Eastern has the sixth-most in FCS, trailing only Harvard (8), North Dakota State (6), James Madison (6), Illinois State (6) and Delaware (6).”

EWU will have their hands full in Frisco. Go Eagles!
