NAIA Guru Jason Dannelly To Own and Operate Company
Grand Island, Neb. – The Victory Sports Network (VSN), founded in 2002 by National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) Guru Jason Dannelly, has officially resumed operations again after a 20 month affiliation with the College Fanz Sports Network.

"We fully intend to continue promoting NAIA athletics at the highest level," said Dannelly. "Our affiliation with College Fanz created many valuable partnerships. I will do everything in my power to make sure NAIA athletics are promoted to the fullest extent possible," said Dannelly.

It is the intent of VSN to continue with its previous ventures of promotion of NAIA athletics including the "First Down Classic" preseason football game, the "Senior Classic" spring football all-star game, NAIA Preview the preseason magazine for NAIA basketball and football as well as live broadcasts of NAIA athletic events.

The first thoughts of the New Year!

** What's been the biggest surprise of the season thus far? It's close but I'd have to say that Robert Morris' fall from preseason #1 to just 9-8 currently has been a shock. Since they exploded on the national scene earlier this decade, Robert Morris has been in the thick of the national race yearly. It appears that player suspensions and injuries could prevent that from happing in 2010.

** As the calendar turns a page, let's take a look at each conference. Please note that my prediction for National Tournament bids are not what I think should happen, but what will happen.
