Thanks for feedback NFS71, I am looking forward to seeing some pictures and later the finished product. Do we have a projected time frame for this project?

Everything is suppose to be in place in time for the start of the Fall 2016 athletic season.

I'm sure it won't last long, but we're currently #11 on RealtimeRPI:

Apparently whoever runs the UW athletics twitter account had scheduled a tweet to go live on Saturday that mentioned "a big win by @BadgerMBB last night"....whoops.

Well, I think if we play like we are able to, we can beat UIC (picked last in the Horizon League, only game so far: lost 78-75 to San Francisco), Eastern Illinois, and Trinity Christian. I think we're going to have our hands full with Creighton and Iowa (and win the game between the two...Silver Lake).

For now though...let's just worry about UIC. Horizon League is still a good conference. Need to have a huge crowd come out tomorrow.

That game against Silver Lake has me worried. We might be undermanned in that one. They have a 6:1 student/faculty ratio. LOL
Embrace the pace of the race.

I can't tell you how "tickled" I was back in the January of 1990 when my team beat Rockford Boylan at their place. They were ranked at that point and we silenced their packed house with a 64-60 victory. From then on we not only received votes in the AP Poll, but we slowly worked are way up to #25! I have an enlarged xerox copy of that first poll in the scrap book from that year. It was just plain, unadulterated fun as far as I was concerned! Still makes me smile! jc ;)
