Has anyone heard if and when they will be coming out with 09' schedules.

I am interested in seeing what happens after the classic!!

In my opinion i think there done! The chaos that happened @ the classic was ridiculous. They are going to have to really hope things are better with a new guy running the show. But im not sure that people will fish with them again.-skeeterman-

I would agree!  I would be shocked if they were still on.

I think it would be almost impossible for BAU to recover from that disaster at the classic. Too bad because it could of been a great circuit if ran correctly.

Well I just found this on another site, I am sure this is not a shocker to anyone as this is what most of us expected. Not to mention if you try to get on the website it no longer exists. I think its safe to say the BAU has called it quits.



"To the respected anglers that I have had the privilege to fish with:

I would like to thank you all for fishing the BAU in 08'. I have had
several emails from people wanting to know what is going on with BAU in
09'. I have tried to get answers on what was going on and put this
together for the 09' season, unfortunately I have not been able to
reach anyone at the top of the BAU for over 2 months to give you any
type of answer or direction. I stood up in front of all of you at the
Championship and told you things would be different for 09'.
Unfortunately, not much has changed. My integrity means a lot to me and
at this time do to the lack of communication, I am stepping away from
the BAU. I would once again like to say "Thank You" to all of those who
helped with the BAU and fished the BAU. I hope to fish with you all
again soon. I do not have everyone's email from the BAU so please
forward this on to other BAU members if you wish."

Respectfully,

Chris Noffsinger

I got the same email from Chris.  I have nothing to offer as far as what is going on.  I would have thought there would have been something out for the Novi show at least for the St Clair division, geographically making sense.  What website did you get that from, Tim?  I just tried the website, too, and it is gone.
