See it only took Wolfpac to be on the boards and within 3 hours someone with one conference championship (and that's all sports) ;) in 35 years starts talking trash.  See it's good to have the Wolfpac back I knew he would get things rolling.  ;D

IUuKno we understand that you would rather go to the IU game.  If I was a fan of that school you betya I'd be their as well.  Come on you've got to root for your team and enjoy that "ONE" banner. Just kidding.
It may have been awhile in BBall, but from what I remember Cabrini has over "FIFTY EIGHT" banners in their gym.  ;D 

It takes a lot of years to build tradition. I am looking forward to our alumnae game and talking with former teammates and classmates.

Fans and especially former athletes and students need to continue to build on traditions. Newer schools (just started men's teams) have to create new ones.  The fans of this conference need to do that every day and every year.  We need to continue to support our teams.  That's why college sports is so much fun and that's why rivalries are so much fun.  Hopefully we can have fun at the games, root for our teams success and enjoy the boards talking about our teams.  :)

wolfpack thanks for the invite but I'd rather be at the IU GMC game where I can see our brand new banners its been a while for you guys so you might want to come check them out...i guess the new season of the "real world" has inspired me to "stop being polite and start getting real."  Someone get Champ Kind in here i think a "whammy" is in order...

Iukuno----- it was just last year that our women won the last basketball PAC championship on the road at GMC as an underdog. It felt special cutting the nets down at GMC.  Our men were on the verge but shot horribly at GMC or they would be in the final as well.  The lacrosse banner stays in Radnor as usual.  I am always polite and admire your loyalty to your team.  I surely understand why you would attend your own game as a fan.  Why would I want to be talking negatively about your loyalty?   IU has a rich heritage in women's hoops and deserves recognition even though it was in the 70's.  I was pulling for your team to win it all the first year with your men's program.  Chadwin does a good job.  Your school has class.  Keep it positive and fun.

Who will raise the first men's basketball CSAC champion banner?  Do not count out Keystone.  The push for the playoff spots make every game loom large without Alvernia.

Boy..... Cabrini seems to be a bad word around here but not an excuse for negative posts. Cav fans have passion and loyalty as well.  This is what rivalry is all about.

Thank you again D3 for creating a forum for facilitating dialogue among our conference.  Wish others would chime in once in awhile.   



 


IUuKno

Let's get two things straight here.  Number one it is one banner in 3 years not 35 and second this is the men's basketball wall is it not?  So let's keep it that way.

Iukuno..... you are the one who pluralized the word banner not I....... so based on your "banners" using logic one would tend to believe you would be referencing all sports in your school over a period of years.  Cabrini has gone through eras of titles in men's basketball with the legendary Dzik staff winning consecutive years more than once reaching the NCAA tournaments.  Mailsy could give you the exact figures.

This year the Cavs are doing all right though considering but they are still missing many pieces to put their team over the hurdles.  I believe they make the playoffs.  Do not know about the finals.  The next couple of years will be recruiting and rebuilding the program with Marcus Kahn.   

Cabrini used to own the all-time men's basketball winningest program in the country until the unthinkable happened.  Sorry just trying to keep it all men's basketball.

Again 1 banner in 3 years of mens sports EXISTENCE at Immaculata. 2 out of 3 the MACS were in the Final. they were the underdog last year against GMC. IU was seeded higher but the 25 pt comeback (a once in a blue moon) @ GMC and then GMC handling the Macs in their only home loss of the year i believe by 20, the Macs were underdogs in the Final at least in my opinion. But my question is What has Cabrini and all these other schools done lately? Lose in the playoffs and not win the Chip. We are the last team to hang a PAC Championship Banner in Basketball. IU YOU KNOW!!!!

wolfpac... there are 2 banners haning in Alumnea. so iuUknow was correct in saying bannerS

Wolfpac

Glad to see you are loyal to your school....  that is the spirit.

Now I see that there is some considerable talking on this board.  ;D  I'm glad that we are keeping it civil, though.

Reserve Seat,

What does Pat C say "Let's discuss (sports) in a positive way, sometimes kidding each other with no disrespect."  Civility could also mean not disrespecting, but kidding, couldn't it?  ??? Or was that just a play on words?  ;D

The one banner is for the PAC championship the other for our first NCAA bid...glad to see you are using logic, but not so happy to see you guys are still heart broken from that divorce some years ago...like after any long term love affair it seems Cabrini needed a couple rebound guys to get themselves over their first love....the first rebound was rushed, trying to convice themselves this was the man for them, even though they knew this relationship was only skin deep and late at night they would roll over and stare at the picture on their night stand wondering if he would forgive us and come back...but too stubborn they stayed conviced this new guy would fill the void and probably let him hang around a bit too long when they knew they should have never gotten involved in the first place...then came the knight in shinning armor, he was young and full of energy, saying all the right things, he was the polor opposite of rebound #1, surely this relationship would last, but then one day Cabrini woke up and he was gone, leaving nothing but a note on the pillow and Cabrini once again looking at old photos of good times past...which brings us to rebound #3 everythings started off great the relationship is new and exciting and they even brought him home to meet the family and everyone loves him...but not matter how great things are going Cabrini still finds itself looking at that night stand photo and can't help wondering if he is thinking of her......So how did I do?  Pretty accurate? 

IUuKno

Hopefully I didn't offend...I meant no disrespect.  I am well aware of Dzik's great career and the pretty solid record of his predasesor Girard, but I will remind you of the words of the great Sonny LoSpecchio "You gotta do what your heart tells you to do. Let me tell you somethin' right now. You're only allowed three great coaches in your lifetime. They come along like the great fighters, every ten years. Rocky Marciano. Sugar Ray Robinson. Joe Louis. Sometimes you get 'em all at once. Me? I had my three when I was 16. That happens. What are you gonna do? That's the way it goes, you know? Tell you right now. See this coach? Maybe this coach, he put wind in your sails. Maybe he's a great one."  (modified of course)

Thanks IUuKno.  I forgot about that NCAA banner that teams get when they get the bid. 

IUuKno, I was not offended hopefully you will never have to experience what many of the Cabrini Alumnae had to deal with when the admin. let Dzik go.  Your post was very eloquent.  But you have to remember.  It is always tough for a new coach who follows a legend to succeed whether the legend goes out on their own terms or goes out on someone elses.  The person following right after has big shoes to fill and they never will fill them. 

I believe that things have settled down and we will again return to success.  I don't believe the school will have the same success of the 80's and 90's.  I could be wrong, but with tuition at colleges like Cabrini and no "athletic scholarships" it will be much tougher.  But with a solid athletic director and good coaching the Cavs will win the championship in the near future.  :o They will make the playoffs this year and I believe will get to the championship game.  Whether they win or not is for a future post.  8)

Lets see what happens at the Griffin Complex tonight Mailsy. Bringing the buses up loaded?

Realistically the women have a shot but the men may be eaten up unless they maintain a stellar shooting percentage from the beyond the arc.  Fundamentals and silly fouls won't cut it and if they turn the ball over it will be pretty ugly for the Cavs. 

Go Cavs.

IU beat Widener.
