Nah, Moses is from central, MN Eden Valley Watkins area.  Too hilly for sugar beet farming. More poultry farms & the like.

Drake, you're not a fan of The Office, then, I take it?

The character whose picture I included, Dwight Schrute (played by Rainn Wilson), owns a beet farm outside Scranton that he operates with his cousin Mose, who's sort of a cross between a hillbilly and an Amish farmer.

If you look at my original post, I never said White shouldn't be playing. I simply said he's dumb, which most/all people would agree with. Both of you seem to be arguing against something I didn't post...

That said, I happen to agree with the Reusse article a few weeks back that Tubby should have yanked his scholarship offer when White went through the non-recruited "transfer" to Hopkins. He's been a black eye for the U for years now without suiting up for even a single game.

His scholarship should have been yanked because he cheated on a test in high school? Don't you think about 75% of all high school kids cheat on a test at some point in their high school career. I know I did.

"Seventy-five percent of all high school kids cheat on a test at some point in their high school career"? Sweet merciful crap, gacbacker! Are you an alumnus of Bernie Madoff High?

Greg Sager was back in the Liverpool area appreciating Chuck Giscombe and Andy Partee lace them up for the Warriors with fellow talented players Joe Swenton and Chris Gedney setting the stage for a run to the State final 4

I haven't lived in Liverpool since I graduated from LHS in '79, VOJ -- in other words, after the Pete Holohan era and before the Tim Green era.

I grew up 2 blocks from the Green household...he was a stud

(a harp starts to play)

you were penning your first "Profiles of Excellence..."  Drake was on his soap box on the corner of the UST campus pontificating about the MIAC, and compiling his first all name team...all hair team(mostly a mullet-sporting crew), etc.  The GAC crew was still learning the sport:  WW perfecting the 12 foot jumper and in your face D...Rob S putting proper spin on the rock...Piper insider was cultivating sources, honing his skills, Nites was...well given I have no idea how old Nites is all I can say is he was doing whatever it is he does...TommieHoops was pledging his allegiance to all things purple.  AO was learning how to agitate others through both the spoken and written word...Greg Sager was back in the Liverpool area appreciating Chuck Giscombe and Andy Partee lace them up for the Warriors with fellow talented players Joe Swenton and Chris Gedney setting the stage for a run to the State final 4... oh and I was a senior in high school, no direction, no motivation, some would say no hope, but a love for sports...see kids what will happen if you don't hit the books, you will wind up in radio and writing pointless drivel on message boards...oh and for those of you want the last 90 seconds back in your life while you perused this...too bad

As I've said before on these boards, I'm not an alumnus of UST or the old CST (?) but I've done some coursework there as well as several other fine MIAC institutions.

But 20 years ago eh? Hmm, I seem to recall the Red River Valley, me & ma had just harvested our last bushel of sugar beets, harsh winter winds and wait,the memories are getting a little fuzzy on me now. Sniff, sniff.    

Drake...I never said you graduated from UST...I just picked out your favorite MIAC institution and put you on the soapbox on the corner      Or maybe its down on the corner...

Good place! I have good memories of watching WSU's second national championship there.

Hey Greg – I guess we're even in the pop culture trivia.  Last year you missed out on the photo of Kanye West I posted, & I had absolutely no idea that Dwight Schrute's character on "The Office" had a beet farm.  I've seen bits & pieces of the show once or twice, but not nearly enough to recall that amount of trivia/detail.

VOJ - I'm guessing you're not a parent.  The MIAC teams are like children to me, & I enjoy watching most all of the teams, & not just UST.  

Since I work & live in the cities, it's easier to follow a successful program/s when they're located in the metro area & not places like St. Peter, Moorhead, Northfield, Winona & yes, even Collegeville. I casually resumed following the MIAC after many years away when Augsburg & Devean George started getting a little press in the local papers back in the late 90s.  A couple of years later some kids I knew started playing MIAC ball & voila, here I am, a MIAC fan.

By my unofficial count for the 09-10 season, MIAC 129 wins & UMAC 1.

Yet another pop culture phenomenon that's passed me by.   

[Nites]

I attend the Texas/North Carolina basketball game yesterday.  Great game.  The Longhorns are legitimate.  They have some horses and they get after it.  Look for them to make a run in the tourney.

Drake...I am a parent of a 9 year old going on 13...I know you like MIAC hoops overall, but every parent has his/her favorites and even you have owned up to having purple pride when push comes to shove...and you missed a lyric reference from a tune I am sure you grew up with by CCR...

I guess we are into a bit of a slow time in the schedule...good thing its bowl season. 

[Gacman]

Slow time of the basketball season, and so I was wondering who people had as their MVP about 8 games in to the season?

I think Ryan McPartland, Joe Scott, and Aaron Burtzel are the front runners with McP being the long-shot of the 3.
