Count me in the group that is happy Coach Orr is the Captain of this ship these days. Oh, the future looks so good. Maybe we can schedule IU for a game? How excellent would that be????? :lol:
By then it will probably be at the new convo center. But just imagine playing IU with 5,000 BG fans, with signs to the extent of "how's the crowd now Dan?"
Yeah right girl!

Oorah!

The illustrations are fantastic. Now if we could just find a Zapruder film of Dakich watching cars pull into the lot...

Was that Stan Joplin squatting on the grassy knoll?

He said "For 10 years at Bowling Green, I sat at my office window with my dad counting cars pulling into the parking lot, hoping we'd have a crowd..." (paraphrased, it was a bit longer and more satirical than that).

Someone should call in and ask him if he realized his office window faced the BA building. :lol:
I had a coworker who watched that and asked me what was up with the attendance at BG. I have told this person before about Dakich's tenure. But thanks to the great posts and Grant's fine presentation, I think he finally got it.

By the way, he thought this thread was hilarious. :)

Grant, I think you should send those illustrations to Dakich and ask him to explain how his dad could see the parking lot from there.

What a comedy. IU got and continues to get what it deserves.

Bring on Kent State. Go Falcons!

Dakich could get some big bucks if he can win a game in the tournament. Not likely with the way they are playing now.

I am with you Freak. I think that team may have quit. As for Kent, I have them beating the unibrow coached team, then losing in the second round.

They were a LOT better before the, ummm, switch?

Lately they've been passing the ball around and taking WAY too many threes...my does that sound familiar.

Still with White and Gordon they've got two premiere college basketball players. That team SHOULD be really good, but they're not for whatever reason. They could conceivably get on a roll. I think they win one and fall to UNC.

I think BG should schedule IU for it's home opener in the new Anderson Areaa.....but only if Dakich is still the coach at IU which I doubt he will be. I think the only way he gets the full-time job is for him to win out the NCAA tourney.

Inidana will have two games, they will beat Arkansas the first game and get trounced by NC the second game.

As do I in my facebook cbssports bracket. I just don't see IU going very far if even out of the 1st rnd. It'll be interesting to note that in the last 10 or so years that Knight has coached at Texas Tech or however long he's coached there that they have not done well in the NCAA Tourney , they always have gotten there more times than not but have done squat once in it.
