Now I get they're probably walk ons and not likely to appear in a game, but seriously? They cannot even find out the identity of these folks and put them on the roster sheets that are printed before each game? Is it that effing hard to find out name, age/class, height/weight, and where the kids are from?

Seriously, Athletic Department. WAKE THE f**k UP! You still have a Division 1 men's basketball program and for some reason there are still a few of us that actually care about the damned thing. Use the money that we sent you for those tickets and produce a god damned media guide!
I know you don't really care about the Women's program, but they don't have a Media Guide posted either. They do, however, have a more detailed Prospectus. Perhaps the fault lies within the whole athletic dept. not just Orr and the like. Maybe they also have guides but only give them to the MEDIA!
I actually did email Kingston the other day and he replied that he was f,at out embarrassed by the lack of a media guide but that they had recently had some turnover in the department and now have a new person in charge of covering men's hoops. He did say we should have a media guide by the end of this week.

I'm not sure about the issue with the women's program as his reply didn't say whether the new guy was going to be covering women's basketball.

Didn't Mary Ellen Gillespie, former AD, just leave for UWM? Perhaps she was responsible for these in the past.

Pretty sure Mike Cihon is still covering women's basketball, was following his tweets for last night's women's game at Butler. Not sure why they wouldn't have a media guide since its the same person covering it

Its possible that he was doing both Women's and Men's stuff to cover.
