Anyone know much about Culver-Stockton College in Missouri? They are a NAIA school. Interested in my QB, but I don't know much about them. I've looked on their website at their W/L over the past few years, but hoping some of you might have a little more insight into the school.
Thanks,
Chris

I played there for 4 years (96-99). I loved it. Got into the top five in their record books for reception and yards. They've played football there for 110 years. Small town, good education, they don't have a ton of talent but they will get some great players come through. There latest WR got invited to NFL camp.
I learned a ton about the game, weight training, and mental preperation there.
They also give partial scholarships.

Culver is in the Heart of America Athletic Conference which is one of the toughest in the NAIA. The good thing about NAIA schools is that they have real athletic scholarship dollars which the D-III schools do not. It is probably safe to say that Culver has been struggling to get into the upper half of the HAAC for many years. They are certainly not the worst school (football wise) - maybe your QB will be part of the class that helps them break through. Talk with the coaches, go on the NAIA football website, victorysportsnetwork.com and check out the posts on the HAAC section. Do your research so you can make an informed decision.

If your QB plays baseball too, they encourage kids to play more than one sport. They have been to the NAIA world series many times.

HAAC is a really good conference... GPAC is at least equal to the HAAC as well. Lots of good Pro players have come out of the NAIA...
I played against Patrick Crayton (Dallas Cowboys - NW Oklahoma State), and I know that Ron Dixon (NY Giants - ran back a KO for TD in the superbowl the last time the Giants were in it) played at the NAIA level as well.
You can also ask some ?'s on footballscoop.com if you want! I'm sure you can find out info about the staff and program there.

CQ:
Missouri Valley College is where its at ;D
Anyway I believe Culver got a new staff last year or the year before. The HAAC is a very competitive conference with teams in the semifinals to finals yearly. IF YOU want more info just go to NAIAfootball.net they have a HAAC board, and those are actual players/coaches/alumn on the boards.

MoValley... When where you there? They were really good my Sophomore year (undefeated like 7-0) then we beat them at their place to win conference...
darebelcoach... My good friend says that the school has a new young staff and they play real hard for him. Haven't been on the positive side of the W/L column as much as they would like to be, but they are a challenge... Since the new guy has been there, they have been on the positive track.
Hope that is info you find useful

Like someone said, they do have money to give in scholly's. Not going to get a full, but it is definetly better than going into a hole in DIv. III.
