Re: WIU at University of Illinois (9/12/2015)
I will add this. We had a very well attended gathering on Friday night sponsored by the Leatherneck Club. It is the type of thing that we (WIU) need to do more often. Coach Nielsen mentioned during his remarks that a majority of the Illini starters were upperclassmen, compared to WIU where a majorit...

Re: WIU at University of Illinois (9/12/2015)
It was a very long drive home to the suburbs. The Necks could just not get anything going for the entire 60 minutes of football played yesterday. jc

Re: Scouting U of I for 9/12 game
I really like these "mystery games" which really will work to WIU's advantage. Just gotta laugh when the Necks win and the next thing out of everyone's mouth is, "well EIU is not that good I guess" or "EIU did more to lose the game than WIU did to win it!" Let's face it...

My two cents!
My two cents! 1) We sat in the west stands for the first half, and the east stands for the second half. There was one EIU fan that was just “crazy” each time a penalty was called. Why anyone would want to officiate is a mystery to me. 2) I am not an OC but if I was I might want to run some sweeps an...

Re: Purple & Gold Auction
My wife and I Once again enjoyed the night. There was some really "sweet" framed sports memerobilia available at the silent auction and the live auction included a Bank's jersey as well. Our neon sign was in the live auction this year and it was really fun to see how the bidding went. We w...

Re: 2015 Football Predictions
If you just follow preseason rankings I can see why one might say 3-8. And yes, the defense has lost some key players. But seasons are made to be played and the only true ranking comes at the end of the season when the dust finally settles. I think this team is special! They are on a mission! 8-3 an...

Re: Campus Improvements - Hanson Field West Stands
812, Just go to the Facilities Management page and click on Miscellaneous Projects. There are 5 pics of the painting process. To be honest with you, the "old" Hanson Field pressbox looks pretty good with a new paint job. I also like the white walls. Maybe its time to make the most of what ...
