You would think a 1,500 yard rusher in the SEC could see the field at Western.

I've been out of the loop. Did Whitlow play? What's the story on him? I had to miss most of the game. Is he still on the roster??

Anyone get a chance to talk to former Leatherneck and current Denver HC Doshia Woods while she made her first trip back to Western since she played? I believe this was her first trip back. She still donates to the Leatherneck Club.

Where is the team practicing? Basketball will be in Western Hall. Rec Center or Brophy? Up here Farley (UNI HC) said last week they play their second game at YSU. He said he may have to get on a skid loader to clear the snow as he wasn't going to YSU without practicing outdoors. Really good early se...

Broomey will forever be remembered in Cyclone lore for his interception off Brandon Weedon that set up the eventual winning TD for the Cyclones in what was one of the biggest upsets in school history.

Read today the Sun Belt will allow their schools to play four non conference games. Our AD should be on the phone with Sun Belt schools. EIU would bring back an old rivalry also.

I think you're correct. Joe was one tough SOB! Him and Rick Lamb from ISU had some battles. Joe's kids turned out to be VB stars. One daughter played a NE.

I agree the WI win was huge. Beating OU in Norman during the Jack Margenthaler era. So was beating DePaul in Chicago

This is the most excited I've been about WIU Men's Basketball since the early '80's when Jack Margenthaler was winning conference tournaments and packing Western Hall to watch Joe Dykstra, Todd Hutcheson, Jamie Lilly, Duane Banks etc..Oh suppose I better mention Brad Bainter!

Two longtime Leathernecks that I value their friendship very highly both said Rives was not good for Western, out for himself and no one else. I'd say "Don't let the door it you on the way out." Wish he would have went when Jackie got his Golden Parachute!
