ut always seems to draw very well at Savage, no?
BG fans do an awesome job on the road and the Q...our home away from home.
I'm guessing UT attendance will increase exponentially next year- at lest early on. There's some great marketing material now and a lot of excitement built. There were more people at the awards banquet Tuesday than a lot of MAC teams average in attendance (probably to see my daughter receive the Rocket Award!).
I'm not expecting 7,000 every game but I suspect we'll average over 3,000 early and if we have any big names coming in or keep the home winning streak alive, that number may go up. A winning men's team could impact that some but I'm not sure which way. At any rate the buzz around UT hoops is huge right now. The BG game could draw 4 or 5 grand I would think- its at UT next year, right?
Lindsay Goldsberry is teaching elementary school in Florida. The last I heard she was doing fine. She was back in BG (I think) for the BKB reunion that was held in December 2010.

Anyone know what Lindsey Goldsberry is doing? She was in a class with my daughter. Very nice young lady.
The Ice Cream Eating Machine is teaching in Florida (I believe it is a fourth grade class). She is also coaching a basketball team.
And I believe she is also engaged to a young man she met here at BGSU.
She likes ice cream? I know I bought her some once. Guess that was a good choice. Also scored free tix to the UT-BG game in Coach C's first year. That was a bad choice!

As long as BG stays at the top of the East, that game should be close to a sellout at Savage next year

I believe she is teaching down in Florida.
"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." ~~USCHO Poster, AFTER Tech beat us #NeverGiveUp
