  • It's almost Christmas so...

    If you could ask for anything or anyone what would it be for our basketball program. In the spirit of the holidays let's keep it as nice as possible.

    1) I would ask for a arena close to campus so the student body would have zero excuses not to head to a game.

    2) A big body 5 that could score in the paint, rebound and take no prisoner approach (another Mike Williams) No disrespect to WE but our 5 needs to be able to go towards the basket and play with their backs to the rim then shoot fade aways. Also the ability to own the defensive paint would be sweet. Matt Salley tried as much as humanly possible but just did not have the skill, ZA owned the ball once it was in the air and POB was just bigger then most.

    Agreed...#1 wish would be for a basketball arena (with no ice underneath!) ON or NEXT to our campus...hopefully someday

      Christmas Wish List For BU

      John Wilkins to enroll at BU,

      BU to play a 6 year home and home series with Arizona State,

      Another player over 6'8" who is "athletic", a good defender, a good rebounder, and a good FT shooter

      Unfortunately, I will probably get a rock for Christmas...

      Feliz Navidad and Happy Holidays from the Valley of the Sun in Northern Mexico,
      also know as Arizona...

        #1 an actual basketball arena....not saying that the PCC is an awful place to watch a game, but an arena near campus would be great. (but guessing this has a chance of happening almost as much as my wish to date a supermodel!)

        #2 a conference championship or 2 or 3.....
        #3 another run in the NCAA tourney!
        Some see a hopeless end, while others see an endless hope.

          RE on campus stadium...Be careful what you ask for...Drake moved from downtown Des Moines stadium (10K+) to an on campus 'gym' that seats 5500...looks like BU's new on campus gym. Pull out bleachers....No parking, no restaurants, no access, and NO STUDENTS...The games I had a chance to attend in Des Moines on campus at Drake had less Drake students showing up than BU currently has in downtown Peoria....Offer BU students free food if they go to BU games and they will be there...

              A complete season with-out injury or turmoil! Just to see what we really have!

                BNC, I guess I should have been more specific with my wish!

                ".....AND CAN PLAY THE 4 With Said Redshirt at Center"

                Unless said redshirt can split time with JW or MK, at the 4 with WE or AT at the 5 and TB a the 3!

                Tooo much eggnog for me, I'll just go back to sleep and dream some more!

                  I guess this one will have to wait until next year .

                  All I want this year is an MVC regular season championship, Tourney title, and to get the auto NCAA Tourney bid playing somewhere West of the Mississippi. . Is that too much to ask?

                          I'd be a really good boy for the next 5 years if we could just land a dominate big man to rule the paint on both ends of the court.

                            A lot better weather then what we are having today:
                            3 more wins before I get to my new year resolution.
