(only NCAA's fateful action kept John from being a Brave...)

JOKE Right In the end he and his dad did not have the final saylol:
Stop the remorse over something we never had

[tornado]

yes...if a hitter had this much remorse and self-pity over every swing and a miss, he'd never move forward and hit the next time up

BTW -- we beat out ISU for Dyricus, and his productivity thus far at the Division I level is significant....so we don't lose all the battles......

An ISU fan told me that he got info from 'very reliable sources' that indicated that ISU had moved on and was no longer actively recruiting DSE several months before he ever committed to BU...so they didn't lose that battle, in actuality.

Then that's even worse. They made a terrible mistake.

For which they will pay over & over & over again (hopefully)

I think the best way to make JW feel bad about turning away from BU (or to help Braves fans move on) is for BU to make the Big Dance - 'cause it's not likely that ISU (red) will next season.
I don't think we're comparing in this thread, but I like DSE's chances at a stellar collegiate career over JW's.

and it is well known that BU backed off JW the past several months, so in effect ISU did not beat out BU...

regardless...BU fans never lorded it over the ISU fans nor poked fun at beating them for DSE...so there's the biggest difference...character and maturity of the fan base.....
none of the immature buck frad*ley stuff...

Ever heard of "I Screwed Up"... maturity at its best

It happens everywhere... and everyone knows it... well, almost everyone

Now you hit it t, lets move on and forward All that really matters about Dyricus now. is that he is at BU and we are glad of that As for JW, his choice, good bye and see you down the road

[LittleBrave]

Hopefully BU fans will not match some of RedBirds' fans immaturity when they come to town, but let JW feel some pressure & express our displeasure for his selection. They gave Dodie a hard time at Redbird arena.

[SFP]

He's no longer "JW" on this board just John Wilkens whatever!

Yeah......stay classy state.

For some reason I keep hearing "Can't go to school? Go to state."

Its amazing how two kids make opposite choices..one to BU and one to ISU and BAM, suddenly when the kid chooses BU his maturity level automatically is raised and he's no longer a young immature teen like the kid who chose ISU.

Its kinda like the "lines" in the mountains of Peru. Or that series of holes......its just one of the freakish things of nature that can't be explained.
