He always had them at Pilot House at like 3 am too. Gonna go ahead and say his parenting and free throw shooting were on par.

Oh my, how can I unsee that? lol
Wow, just wow! Who knows, maybe he'll end up being our version of Dennis Rodman on and off the court.
if he ends up playing like Dennis Rodman, I'd be fine with him walking around campus half naked with piecing God knows where with Kim Jung-un hanging onto his arm.
What the hell did I just watch
The next Dennis Rodman
It's like Benny Hill, only more disturbing
Ok, I've changed my vote. Wow... just...wow! This group of freshmen do seem to be free spirits, so he probably fits in nicely!

Great Holiday Party with team, staff and families. Gift swap full of high drama. Fun group!
Is Troy chewing a pacifier?
Yes. Yes, he is.
OK, I get, Troy's "interesting". Put it on his topic not here in DPs.

Awesome article on historic venue. Chance to bring our team there in December was on my bucket list!
"In 1926, the University of Pennsylvania went all-in on basketball. The game had only been invented 35 years earlier and wasn't formally played on college campuses until the start of the 1900s. None of those schools would compete for an organized national championship until 1938.
At Penn, they broke ground on what amounted to the largest basketball-specific structure in the country. It would not be a multi-use arena. It would be a building -- strong and sturdy with 10 steel trusses bolstering an arched, windowed ceiling -- built only for basketball. It was an entirely novel concept.
The first game was Jan. 1, 1927. Penn beat Yale in front of over 10,000 people. The experiment was a wild success and a wave grew, sweeping across the landscape. A little over one year later, Hinkle Fieldhouse opened at Butler. In 1938, Gallagher-Iba Arena opened at Oklahoma State. In 1940, Cameron Indoor Stadium opened at Duke. Down the line, Allen Fieldhouse at Kansas came in 1955. Each was built with design elements of the Palestra.
The game took off. In 1939, Ohio State, Brown, Villanova and Wake Forest all came to the Palestra for the East Regional of the first-ever NCAA Tournament. They decided to play it on the second week of March. The idea stuck.
As the sport and the NCAA Tournament grew, the Palestra became the tie that binds the fabric of college basketball. To this day, it's hosted more tournament games (52) than any other building, despite not doing so since 1984."
"On Saturday, Michigan State will take the floor at the Palestra (1 p.m., TV: ESPN). It will be the Spartans' sixth all-time visit, but first since 1966. They will face Penn State, which is using one of its eight allotted Big Ten home games to play for an outing in Philadelphia; both because its actual home court at Bryce Jordan Center is a barren air hangar and because recruiting players out of Philly is coach Pat Chambers' modus operandi. The game was suggested by Chambers and accepted by Tom Izzo, who has long wanted to cross the Palestra off his bucket list."

Does the A10 still have weekly teleconferences with each of the coaches like they did in the past? I can't find a link to those.
I thought they were useful to get the coaches' perspective on the past game and their view of their next opponent, especially in that we don't have a weekly coach's show and only get a post-game extra for home games. As to the latter, is there a way of posting the coach and players' post game press conference for away games?

George Mason athletics as been streaming all the postgames on Facebook. They even did one for the Bonnies game: https://www.facebook.com/MasonAthletics/videos/
Thanks! Being a non-Facebook-user, I was completely unaware of those videos.
Found it! They just started the teleconferences this past Monday. Obviously it's before we played St. Joe's so this is dated.
