  1. That’s too bad we were REALLY good, Greg Downing & Jerry Shoecraft would run these baseline alley oops that were absolutely *sick*…!!! And along with Handy, Stan Cloudy was the MAN!
  2. That’s very surprising to me, he was a shooting guard on one of the best teams we ever had. Lost to a powerhouse DePaul team with Skip Dillard in the NIT semifinals. It’s an homage to our golden age, plus I’m not clever by half to come up with a moniker that delightful…
  3. Bad Basketball teams rarely have the chance we put ourselves in tonight, but our margin of error is SO thin a poor shot or errant pass leads to 0-11…
  4. https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=ZFJ5Bj_put0&feature=share “Cold & drunk as I can be” about sums it up…
  5. I went with 5 bucks & Powder Dry. When your level of “success” for the Football program is now 6 wins, where does the Basketball team fall within that metric? Evidently somewhere between 0-20 & the NIT. Think of this as a triage unit, we’re hemorrhaging money over on 10th street, PBA will have to wait…
  6. I’m happy to say I’ve headed South out of Grand Marais MN with this blasting on the stereo along the shore of the Big Lake they call Gitche Gumee…
  7. When White Power symbols have moved into the mainstream to the point that our beloved Herbie has to give up his “Okey Doke” we do live in sad times indeed. I myself am not convinced there are Very Fine people on both sides…
  8. Kobe’s last desperate heave brought to mind Jervay Green’s Baseline Alleyoop in Fred year 1 to close out a loss. Trey vs Illinois in a Fred year 2 loss, & NC St, Ohio St this year. We don’t play with a sense of resolve or even with something resembling a “plan” Panic sets in & we’re left hoping against hope that a miracle will take place.
  9. What REALLY hurt us was his 0-10 from the field, especially with no Verge in the lineup, Keisa a non-factor & Edwards still MIA…
  10. Take away the McGowen’s points Bryce/Trey, & we would have lost by 40…
  11. In the last few minutes of a tight game, I know EXACTLY what to expect from this team. Utter chaos, & they delivered again tonight, in Spades
  12. I can remember when Sipple said Scott Frost would be Coaching the Dallas Cowboys by now, & that Tanner Lee was a “can’t miss” NFL prospect…
  13. I’m still waiting for that game where Bryce takes over the contest & WILLS us to victory. We get a handful of home games coming up where that “could” happen, but if it doesn’t, I’m out a box of steaks & that 0-20 is staring us down like a rifle barrel…
  14. Lat scored in double figures for the FIRST time this season with 11. I’m assuming this is what Fred was referring too when he mentioned things to “build off of” before Saturday’s contest.
  15. What we lack in size we compound with horrific outside shooting…
  16. Q: How do you spot a man from Wisconsin in town for the weekend? A: He’s got on a brand NEW shirt & a NEW $5 Bill & he doesn’t change either one the whole time he’s in town.
  17. This Athletic Department has been wandering out in the woods since Bill Byrne left. I agree with Barfknect, Trev is the right hire at the right time. Tough decisions will be made & the University will be better off for it…
  18. A Viking fan checks into his Hotel in Green Bay on a Saturday night before the big game. He calls down to the front desk & complains he's got a leak in his sink. The clerk replies "Hell go ahead, everybody else does"...
