Re: Nielson Leaving?

Well I'll be damned! Just goes to show you how much I know about things! I like what Coach N has done too. He has been a class act from day one and that has been very good for this university. Guess you can always interview no matter what job you currently have and weigh the options and offers. I re...

Re: Iowa Game

On the positive, the Necks continued to compete and ran there offensive sets pretty much to the end. On the negative side though there were some lapses with ball handling that turned instantly into dunks and lay ups for the Hawkeyes. Pretty tough to maintain things when shots that normally go in aka...

Re: Biggest Crowd at Hanson Field

Bob,

I took a look at the yearbooks from 71/72, 73/73, 73/74, and 74/75 for crowd shots! Did not find one from Central Michigan but remember that it was a cloudy day. The southern hillside was just packed with people. FYI There was actually a card section in those days! ;) jc

Re: WIU at Illinois State II: Electric Boogaloo (12/5/2015)

My wife and I are two rows up and just to the right of the Hyvee sign. My wife is just above the lady in the light blue jacket, wearing a purple coat and I am just to her left. Funny, you get close and you can see my collar up! Seal,mew gotta at least touch base each time we are at games! I did get ...

Re: WIU at Illinois State II: Electric Boogaloo (12/5/2015)

Great atmosphere and really a great game almost to the end. Was a bit surprised at the difference in yards on the ground but I guess I should not have been. The final turning point in my opinion started very positive with a kick out of bounds by ISU. But the Necks followed that with a drop, another ...

Re: WIU - Week 4

I am not going to say that I like this matchup all that well either, but these dates are usually agreed upon way in advance and I can't blame Coach Wright for being too conservative not knowing exactly what he would have on the floor this year. I would imagine as the Necks become more and more compe...

Re: SIU fires coach

Tommy knew that the SIU AD's job could be prickly in regards to both football and basketball. Tough decisions that need to be addressed. ;) jc

Re: WIU at Illinois State II: Electric Boogaloo (12/5/2015)

Rocki & Seal, Sustaining drives is all about the offensive line and I still can see Norvel getting smeared from behind in the 2nd half. The mobility of McGuire should help with this! ISU is just a really good team and it will take a great effort to beat them! I will get my first look at the &quo...

Re: WIU @ Dayton (11/28/2015) - Playoffs Round 1

I dated a girl from Dayton in between my high school honey and my wife. She was a Miami coed! Drove to see her from Chicago twice and Macomb twice. She lived on the other side of the river on Ridge Avenue! Took me to see the stadium on one visit. Anxious to see how things go tomorrow! Play-off magic...
