Thanks, Chmarx!

Should be a great game tomorrow at Augie Court. UWW is starting to perk up a bit . . . ever since BadgerWarhawk went at 'em with that fork!   Perhaps Coach Miller should bring BW in the locker room for a pregame speech!

Hey OS:

Nice for me to also meet you on Saturday, if only briefly.  I understand though, you had Junior OS'ers to attend to.   ha ha ha

Curious for an opinion from the Pointer-crowd:  did Stout expose UWSP's achilles heel?  Should UWSP lose the rest of the way, including the NCAA playoffs, it'll come at the hands of a team with a dominant low-post guy.  Dominant means on both ends of the court.  On Saturday, UWSP lost the ability to slash to the basket and Jon Krull was only effective from 18-ft and out.  On the other end of the court, either Nonemacher was key to outscoring UWSP by 15 points over the last 30 minutes of the game.  Watch out for Stout . . . if they can capture that genie, they surpass UWW as the WIAC conference tourney darkhorse.

BTW, a shooter is in the act of shooting from the moment his habitual shooting motion begins until the moment he touches the floor, one foot on the floor constituting touching the floor.  Where this rule differs from high school, is that the player is in the "act of shooting" only until the ball is released from his hand on a shot.  In high school, the act of shooting includes until the moment the player returns to the floor. The implicaton being that when a charge occurs in high school the shot never counts.  The shot can count in NCAA IF the ball is released prior to the shot.  Clear as mud?

On the road following Oshy this week . . . lots riding on UWO @ UWW and UWO @ UWP this week!



Anyway, this is proud day for me. I've moved from "lurker" to poster. Quite the moment!

On a side note...unless I was hearing those voices in my head again, I could've sworn I heard someone yell, "Old School" after the game when I was heading to the bathroom.  Obviously I wouldn't expect anyone to wait for me.  Anyway, if that person did yell to me, send me an email or a message to confirm that I actually heard that.  Don't worry, I'll keep your identity a secret!  If not, it will just give me another reason to stop doing all those recreational drugs! lol.   




OS, don't worry, no reason to end the recreational drug use . . .  you did hear someone yell "Old School."  Twas I. 

First-time poster here, many time reader.  You do a good job on your analysis of MW and WIAC doings.  Was looking for you at the Oshy-LaX game.
