I still don't know how I didn't die taking those steps five at a time to get down to the floor with my hobbit-like gait. By the time I got there, they had given up trying to keep us off the floor.

    Great stuff.

      Danny Nee's first season, team wins a game or two at end of regular season to earn last spot in MAC tourney and first round game at Ball St. Forget the format, but not every team made the tournament. Made the trek to Muncie, possibly with SBH and cc cat (do you guys remember?), for Bobcat loss. Our sophomore year at Ohio.

     Two years later, 1983, made the trip north to the frozen tundra with cc cat (SBH?) for the league championship game at regular-season champion BG where Ohio won and several Ohio students stormed the court. Back when BG had some teams with real players (Colin Irish).

 

My dad and I were in BG in 1983.  Devereaux to the free throw line area after a down screen for jumpers was the difference.  I was 15 and Dad and I went to aTampa for the Big Dance and big upset over Illinois State.  Awesome.  Those wins have stayed with me and now I'm in Cleveland with the old man and my 14 year-old son, passing it on.  Nothing better.

I rushed Seabridge (development what I reside in) in Oxnard, CA when we made the Sixteen last year, just ran out the front door screaming, "YES! SWEET SIXTEEN!  WE ARE IN!"

It was a neighborhood improvement.
