Can't make this stuff up with all the injuries, but what would a UD Basketball season be without adversity (injuries, transfers, etc.)??? I'm sure MI will get yet another pass due to so many players being out. 10 years in and it doesn't feel like we've made any progress. I think you could easily make an argument that the program has regressed over the past few years. And the atmosphere in the Bob is literally non-existent. If there were 2K people in attendance last night I have a bridge in Brooklyn you may be interested in. It's just a shame we have never been able to recreate the excitement Coach Brey generated over a quarter century ago...yikes!

when things seem like can't get any worse for our mens program, I saw the Piper news :roll: It's deja vu forever under the recruiting of guys with a history of injuries. Njoku? is he the same? as I have not seen a word if he will ever hit the hardwood or be worth it if he does :roll: come on man - this is a joke of a program though I badly want it to succeed, but never seem to get rewarded.

anyway- here's a ditty I just turn to from my favorites when the news about anything sucks-https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ma9b8NgutPs. hope you get a laugh as the lyrics are funny and the sound is pleasant 8)
