Re: Centenary
Torn here on whether or not to have sympathy for these guys. It is tough getting kerblastificated every single game. Watched my oldest go through that one HS varsity baseball season, and it can get bruise the psyche. On the other hand, there are probably a passel of D-III caliber kids here who will be able to say they played one year of D-I basketball... Thoughts???

Take your lumps and then move to D-III.-South Dakotan by birth, a Jackrabbit by choice.

Re: Centenary
At least the coach is still positive in this crappy situation. Has to be hard for the players too.Over? Did you say "over"? Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no!--Bluto--

Re: Centenary
Remember when we were really struggling? Remember the road losing streak? I can certainly empathize with them but sympathy isn't the word for me. We can all remember how we felt when the team was really struggling. And we're just fans! I think back to guys like Hokenson and Geiver and how they were overmatched. If you knew them a little bit like I did you know that they were two of the nicest young men you could hope to have on your team. They came out and gave everything they had with that uniform on. We cheered for them because they were our Jackrabbit team that year.
At the end of the day, these young men are getting their education paid for which can be a huge advantage for them in life after ball. Yeah, it would be great for them to get this monkey off their back. My thought is that Fargo on Saturday would be the perfect place to make that happen.
No mercy for these Gents. Come out with some serious intensity and show them early that tonight is going to be the night!
See you there!

Originally posted by gojacksgo View PostCompletely agree with everything you said, but I do want to point out that for all of the players on their team, they really only have 4 scholarship players so not all of these guys are getting their education paid. Many are walk-ons.
We need to put a hundred on them!

Re: Centenary
Guess I have a slightly different perspective. It is not their fault that the university is moving to a different level and can't afford scholarships, and can only provide these guys with a really tough final year in D-1.
So I just hope we play well, everybody gets to play and plays well, and the score is what it is.

Memphis is the only team to score triple digits on them. IUPUI beat them by 8 although they were leading by 20 something early in the 2nd half. I agree with everything Jacks#1Fan said
