    A little extra history for you. A few minutes before Tim hit the game winning shot he took a shot from approximately the same area. You guessed it AIR BALL.

    Someone snuck into the Coliseum and posted pictures

    I got to know Jim during his freshman year. Chuck Noe use to say that Jesse Dark was the only player he knew that could go bear hunting with switch. Jim Turns loved to bear hunt with a bow and arrow.

    I played many pickup games with Len. My only problem with Len was he could shoot better with his left hand than I could shoot with my right hand and he's not left handed. I have always felt that he should be listed as our number one all time scorer. The only thing that changed in his...

    Is it too early .........for the 20-21 starting line-up?

    I have never been good at guessing so I'm going to pass on naming a starting 5. The one thing that was all too evident last year was both Douglas and Ward's ability to pick up mutiple fouls in a relatively short amount of court time. Personally I would be looking hard at having 15 fouls to...
