Akron1 Posted March 21, 2009 Report Posted March 21, 2009 Any word on a celebration for this team, similar to the 2007 event at the JAR? Quote
lance99 Posted March 22, 2009 Report Posted March 22, 2009 Any word on a celebration for this team, similar to the 2007 event at the JAR?There should be one!!! Unless the university thinks that it would be out of control being so close to May Day. Even though it would be cool to see burning couches in front of the JAR like they used to do on Katherine Place Quote

Don't want that to happen to the team bus :blink: Quote

skip-zip Posted March 24, 2009 Report Posted March 24, 2009 I think everyone pretty much regarded the Selection Sunday party as the celebration of the MAC tournament title. I think the only thing you might see now is maybe an appearance of this team at the home opener football game??The 2007 JAR party was different. People felt as if that team deserved some recognition for what they did that year, even though there was no MAC tournament title, or NCAA or NIT appearance. Quote
