Hate to say it; but perhaps Norm is gone for good.  He hasn't visited this site since early April.  Hate to see this take place!

 

I believe Norm will return at some point.   Not sure what that point is, but I don't expect him to miss basketball season.

Slowest summer ever for posts on this board.  We didn't even have a music thread!  Like 75 said, "no news is good news"

It's great that no one passed away in the last 10 posts!

Just the dog days of Summer. It'll soon pass.

I rarely [if ever] watched him; but Phil Donahue passed today as well.  I guess we have him to blame for Voice and many other brain dead talk shows.

It is very much worth your time to learn (more) about Herschell Turner.

He had the distinction of being the second best player to come out of Indianapolis in 1957.  (No shame in that since the top player was Oscar Robertson.)

Danny Nee's assistant who pulled in great NU recruits in the 90s.

RIP Coach Williams.  He helped bring in some amazing talent in the 90’s and was a big factor in why I have so many fond memories of Husker basketball during that era.

RIP James Earl Jones.  One of the best and recognized voices ever.
