Researchers Probe 200-Year-Old Shipwreck Off US

Post by Falcon Fanatic »

BGSU professor emeritus David Skaggs quoted in this article with a local history tie in:

http://www.npr.org/templates/story/stor ... =146589192
"Regarding BGSU, I would think their biggest strength is that they never give up, They never slow down and they battle hard even after the other team scores. We have to be on our game and never, ever take the foot off the gas for a second."
~~USCHO Poster
"BG was relentless. It's like they know that a good first pass on the breakout from a defenseman will almost always result in an odd-man rush against them - but they go in anyway and dare you to make that pass. All three of their goals were just grit and effort. That's a team any fan can be proud to support...they give all they've got."

I had Dr. Skaggs for my US Military History class at BG. He was a bit of a hardass, but a damn good teacher that seemed to know just about anything you'd ever want to know about any war the US has ever fought in. The papers I did in his class were both some of the most interesting and most difficult work I did while in school.

Thanks for posting :)
