My name is Greg Dargie. I live in Crawfordsville, IN and work at Purdue University as a Financial Analyst in the Office of Investments. It's tough to keep up on Falcon athletics when there is little local MAC interest.

I assume you can tell when I was at BG from my username. We had some pretty good football and hockey teams during my tenure. Basketball team did make the NIT's one year too.

I worked in the Visitor Information Center out by the Doyt when it was still a pre-fabbed wooden shack with solar heating and a port-a-let. But it was a good place to study between visitors! Lived in the old part of Kohl Hall my first two years and then off-campus my last two. Really enjoyed both experiences. Got to watch our hockey team win it all in 84-unfortunately we were on spring break at the time.

Brian McClure was our star QB but I always thought Stan Hunter was a better player. Stan and I both majored in Finance and shared several classes together. I know he played Arena ball for a couple of years after college but I don't think he was ever offered a NFL contract.

I had some classes with Avon Davey and Keith Taylor form the BB team. Both of them had great personalities and man could Keith shoot!

I was almost part of the Manville Madness riot but left before the bonfires got too crazy. I remember when President Reagan visited campus in 84. We looked for Secret Service agents for days before the event.

I loved my time at BG and really need to make a trip back up there soon.

'86

I was doing that a few days before Kerry came to BG. I think I saw more SS agents than actually BG residents walking along Main Street! Anyways, I am glad to hear someone in the Purdue area still appreciates the Falcons

That number is probably very small after last yr.

I sure did enjoy giving some of my Purdue grad co-workers "the business" after last years win. Maybe in a few years Purdue can drop that series with the Flailing Irish and create a series with BG.

I doubt Purdue would be in for that guaranteed 1 loss a year though

I imagine most of the Boilers and even some Falcons would disagree with that statement. However, until recently, the Notre Dame game was almost a guaranteed loss.

Not sticking up for my employer, just being realistic. Glad you have that student/fan optimism though!
