Weber St defensive line is tough. They do put a lot of heat on the QB. Enough for JMU? Might be worth a two hour drive to find out next week.

Well I think it should have been a W, but what a finish. I agree it was a game WIU should have won, but a great game. At times it seemed WIU was playing 2 on 5, with the offense only going thru Acrum & Webster down the stretch. Missed a couple point blank shots at end of regulation that would h...

Wow, what a game. Only bad thing is we go down 76-73 is 2OT. But whatever you paid to see this one, you got your money's worth and then some. Our lack of depth in the big dept really hurt us in this game. Gilbeck fouled out late in regulation. Morgan played soft on D when he got his fourth. But over...

Down 35-31 at the half. Ancrum with 14. Gilbeck picked up 2 fouls in 5 seconds late in half and had to sit. Both occurred 22 feet from bucket. That should never happen.

Fry up a really big batch for the upcoming study and exam weeks. Use them to start a new campus tradition to gain a little attention? This one works for an Ivy League school but might be a little much for rural western Illinois. At Brown University, a group of students go through the libraries naked...

It would take a real set of gonads to lower ticket prices after the season starts. Dead Week is brutal for college hoops attendance.... Is "Dead Week" another name for Finals Week ??? Finals Week at Western starts on December 11. Still another week of classes to go before then. Western's ...

It would take a real set of gonads to lower ticket prices after the season starts. Macomb HS takes on Quincy ND tonite. We got Miami (OH). Which game will draw the bigger crowd? I am going with the Bombers. Dead Week is brutal for college hoops attendance or at least that is my impression from sever...

Fans don't even show up to games at WIU. The promotional schedule for Men's Basketball shows a lot of "open" dates: http://www.goleathernecks.com/sports/2016/4/21/promotional-calendar-m-basketball.aspx Single game ticket prices could be holding down the crowd. Prices at Western Hall: $22 ...

My $2/100:

If you can't get to a game, concert, drinking establishment, or whatever in 30 minutes or less, you don't make it a habit of showing up on a regular basis.

Western beat Chicago State 71-54. Western is now 6-2. Next game will Friday at Wichita State. Unusual starting time for a Friday of 12 Noon. Taylor Higginbotham and Morgan Blumer led the Western scoring with 17 points each. Michelle Farrow had 12. Chicago State had 30 turnovers which resulted in 32...
