It feels like we need a big space-eater like Mike Marsh. The problem is that a lot of schools need a guy like Marsh.

I don’t know about you guys, but I have the attention span of about four sentences per post. Tops.

You led the effort to get the K built? Now we know who to blame.😉 You have no idea how hard it was. You think the deck is stacked against Milwaukee now, you should've seen it back then. We had less than 1 square foot of rec space per student vs other campuses with their 10 and more. We literally had the only Basketball game in NCAA history rained out. The roof at Baker Fieldhouse leaked creating big puddles. We wound up playing then 5th ranked Oral Roberts the next night at the Arena and nearly won before a large cheering crowd. Even that still didn't move enough votes on the State Building Commission but it did help us get one more. I went up to Madison lobbying so often that I should've gotten credit for it as part of the Political Science course. Once we got it, I was done. I had nothing to do with the design. I did however suggest the name. Ernie Spaights told me that's a no go because you can't name a building after someone who's still alive. My response was "Why wait til their dead and won't know it." To me it made sense. It was last piece in the campus that Klotsche built. Besides I promised him we'd do something to make sure he was remembered after that 75 year old man beat me and another 20 something year old at Blow Pong in the Kenwood Inn at the retirement party we threw for him. (Blow Pong involves blowing a ping pong ball off your opponent's side of a ping pong table. If you succeed they have to take a drink. We got a table moved up from the Rec Center for the game. The Chancellor was undefeated in five matches that night. His partner basically stood there and let him do all the work.) I was gone from school when it opened but I did get an invite to the grand opening. Spaights wrote in it, something like "We took your suggestion so I hope you can come." That was special for me. Awesome story. Thank you for your efforts Milwsport!

Just checking some conference standings and noticed that our old pals UIC, Valpo, and Loyola are a combined 8 - 30 in their respective conferences. Those are PBS like numbers.
Carry on.

I still have a "Bruce Is My Homeboy" T-shirt! Does anyone here remember these? But do you have a “Bruce is my Home Boy” SPECIAL EDITION shirt? I got my Home Boy shirts from someone on this board many moons ago.

Here’s hoping WSU is on the other side of the HL tournament bracket.

I would like to recommend a certain assistant coach with Georgetown to Green Bay. Let me fix that: I would like to recommend a certain assistant "coach" with Georgetown to Green Bay.

88-75 win, puts up at . 700 winning percentage overall and a .800 winning percentage inn conference. if the season ended right now we'd be the 1 seed folks. Lots of basketball to play. One game at a time.

0-0 starting the second half. Value each possession.

ESPN play by play says Kentrell missed a layup with 9 seconds left and the score tied at 69.
What can anyone tell me about this shot? Was it really a “layup?”
