Scroll through the pictures. They just had this arena built in 2020. I don't think anyone could tell me with a straight face that the JAR is nicer than this.
It's a nice arena. Pretty bare bones in terms of decor in the common areas. Decent amount of concession space. Nice padded seats all around. Nice scoreboard and ribbon boards. Good sized parking deck right next door. All paid for by the local government, not JMU. Not a palace and not a dump. Still has that new arena smell. We will see how it ages.

Are there any records on what NIL teams are offering? Public? Private?
Creighton paid out $4 million this season.

Good for Dru.
Wonder what the future holds for McNees and McFadden?
Steve hasn't been on the staff for at least 3 years. He has a training academy he owns and operates. Not sure if Rick will stay on with Dru.

It just made gambling more mainstream. The NCAA tournament just set record viewership records at a time when fewer and fewer people are watching live TV. Now that the can of worms has been opened, the leagues are making more money and politicians are generating more tax revenue. I don't see it going anywhere.
It's always about the money. As long as the government gets their cut it will continue.

anyone know if the team and or coach and or AD came straight back home after the game? or to what extent they might have stayed to rub elbows?
Team went straight home. Coach, not sure. AD stayed.

You're also missing Eric McGlauglin.

Cedrick Middleton was not a point guard. You're missing Steve McNeese on your poll.

Thanks!! I just do not remember him being that good to cost us a MAC championship. I do remember one player who always seemed to underachieve in Cleveland and that seemed to hurt us in his last couple of years.
We only needed him to play 10-15 minutes per game at the MAC Tournament to give Big Dog a breather. By game 3, BD was spent and it cost us the title.

I always choose to remember that team for the way they responded to the MAC Tournament. Lost their starting PG, didn't have anyone ready to step in - I remember Betancourt cramping against Kent in the regular season finale because the minutes were just too much of a jump - lost that game to Kent.
Had one week to figure it out. Beat Kent in the semis and then pounded Ohio in the final while mostly running the offense with players than hadn't done it all season. KD's best coaching job IMO and incredible resilience from the players.
The following season Harney truly thought he should be the starting point guard. Spent most of the season pouting about it.

Greetings Zipsnation citizens. I send greetings from a galaxy far, far away. I was here when this place had a different name and URL, when the interwebs were accessed by dial-up modems that made strange noises. Old timers may remember me. I deployed the first Haiku of Hatred. Now, I return with another.
"I flip off Kent State
Imagine the bus trip home
I frigging love it!" 👌🤣🤧
Now back to your regularly scheduled program, peoples.
Welcome back my friend from the blueboard!

Nope - they had one remaining that Pinky ended up using in between Greg's free throws.
You're right

Pinky should've called a timeout after their basket so they could get setup and on the same page as a team.
They were out of timeouts

Pat Forsyth was a West Virginia transfer that everyone was very excited about and had a couple of decent years as a backup. Something happened where he dropped off the team. I remember seeing his at the Mac playoffs in street clothes and not with the team. I cannot remember what happened.
Foresyth was a head case. Everytime he got a hangnail he couldn't play. He hurt his shoulder and refused to play because he thought that any further injury might jeopardize his future career as a pro. He cost us the MAC championship in Dambrots final season. When we went to the NIT that year he wasn't invited to join the team. He did sign a G league deal but it didn't take long for them to realize what a headcase he was.
