isu & Porter Moser?

Heck, maybe Osiris Eldridge wants to make amends and transfer to BU. I know Les wanted him pretty badly, and we were very close to getting OE. I know in-conference transfers are very rare these days, but who knows.

FWIW, I think ISU has a chance to make a good hire here. IMO the cupboard isn't bare for them, and I think with the right hire and player retention, they could be a top 6 team in a down MVC. A bad hire and/or player defections, and winning still could be a few years away.

FWIW Osiris' 2nd choice was Creighton and BU really wasn't as close as you think. Not that that matters now, but Les was a little late getting to OE, just as C-Lo was.

What does this do to the recruitment of Matt Roth?

For those that don't know Washington is playing at the Fieldhouse tomorrow night in the State Playoffs, they tip off at 6 pm. I figured I'd go and bring a sign telling him where he should attend college.

Suspected meteorite hits Bloomington home
NEW 12:30 p.m. BLOOMINGTON ???‚¬??? Talk about coming out of nowhere. A Bloomington couple, David and Lee Riddle, are thinking just that today after what is believed to be a meteorite crashed through a window of their Bloomington home about 9:30 a.m.

This was actually Porter Moser's cell phone after he got the word that he was fired this morning.

SEEMS RATHER ODD TO ME TO FIRE THE WHOLE STAFF? Not a good move in my opinion....with out one of the current coach's around during the new hiring a lot of player's will have already decided to transfer!

He made the right choice as far as furthering his career. He would have been a little more lost in the shuffle at BU for 2 years while he's slowly turning into the man at ISU.

BLOOMINGTON, Illinois (AP) -- When Dee Riddle heard the breaking glass, she thought her bathroom mirror must have shattered.

What she found was quite different: A grayish metallic object about the size of a deck of cards had crashed through a bedroom window and into a computer table.

Intrigued scientists from nearby Illinois State University said it was likely a meteorite.

"In my 36 years of investigating meteorite calls, this looks like the real thing," said Robert Nelson, a geology professor at ISU. The last confirmed meteorite to strike Bloomington was in the '30s, he said.

Nelson and other experts ruled out the possibility that it had been thrown by someone near the house, and they said it wasn't likely to have been space junk from a satellite or spacecraft.

The U.S. Geological Survey's meteorite center in Flagstaff, Arizona, will take part in trying to positively identify the object, Nelson said.

The object hit around 9:30 a.m. Monday, Riddle said.

"We were just lucky no one was sitting at the computer when it happened," she said.

Again, when all tests are done, it will be confirmed that this was in fact porter mosers cell phone, as the last number dialed was the Bloomington unemployment office.
