      .....I only remember the times we failed miserably and it cost us one game and nearly another.

            Aside from the Loyola and SIU home losses last year where he turned the ball over multiple times in the waning moments, yes.
            Onward and Upward!

              Nobody's perfect. No Dodie, McCain and rookie running mates made it tough at times for Sammy. But I still wouldn't trade him for any other guard in the Valley.

                It wasn't just him, but I wouldn't say beating the press was one of his or our strengths. Hopefully that's one of many things an overhauled staff will help clean up this year.

                  The worst thing a player can do against the press is to try to dribble though it and worst than that is to get trapped/cought in one of the corners and have them double up on you. Plus being short when that happens to a player like Sammy is a death march. Thats what happen to Sammy more than once But I will take him and his heart any day

                    OOB and Amckillip - I Grew up in the Burg but went to Costa. Played jr. high football with Dave Mckillip. Any relation? Played high school football with Joe Kennedy, Steve Welch, Paul Mckillip, etc. I graduated from Costa in 1970 and played on the last BU football team. My dad graduated from BU so I was a big fan of BU hoops even back then. Zack Theil visited BU the same day I did but he ended up at SMU. I have enjoyed the "Burg" banter. It was a great place to grow up!!

                      Yeap, Costa HS was the school with NO Windows I would never made it there I think Dave Mckillip was the Mckillip that worked at IP that I mentioned. Costa had some good BB teams in the mid 60's. They had some really good BB players and where ranked high in the state a couple years in 63 and 64. Had a player tranfer in, I think his name was Woods. They played GHS in some Big games that had the town divided between catholics and what everone else was or was not. Coach Theil was something else Also because I played 3 years of football for GHS, I new of a guy named Stan (moose) Bucklovich from Galesburg who played Football at BU,
                      See Amckillp, there are BU BB fans from the burg

                              So with the addition of Davis, is MO no longer a consideration? In an ideal world we get them both. At least in my ideal world...

                                Bradleybrave, I agree with you. If we find out that MO gets cleared and joins this class I could be a very happy guy!!!
