MBB: College Conference of Illinois and Wisconsin

[GoPerry]

Sometimes I wonder if all Illinois Wesleyan fans have developed double-jointed shoulders from patting themselves on the back so much.

. . . hadn't noticed . . . .

I don't mind the no announcer or play by play as long as the court side PA announcer on audio.  The play by play by the two guys sitting behind the scorers table at IWU gets a little weary. 

The two guys play-by-play (the guys from balcony in the muppets) was coming from the mic on the camera...up on the north railing.  Not down at the table.

Thanks Q.  I got to admit though -  We border between being irrated and laughing hysterically

Somebody with better Photoshop skills than me needs to put green sweaters on Statler and Waldorf.

Although NPU isn't archiving games for the most part this season (coach's decision), last night's AC @ NPU contest has been put up on YouTube in its entirety:

Irritated or irated?

Nice win for your guys, Greg.

Greg got it totally right about the quality of the U of Chicago.  Of course, most students at UC don't even know the UC has athletics. 

But, actually, Greg, we Titan fans are triple-jointed -- patting ourselves, our fellow Titan fans, and the Titan players now and over the years on the back -- so it takes three. 

I share the low regard for the Titan feed and video coverage -- surely we could do better.  Carthage really knows how to do it.

Indeed so -- a nice win for the North Park University over the Doggies.  Thanks to them, much appreciated.

Nicely proving WUH's point.  Well done.

NCF, pretty close, pretty good -- but you can't see the double or triple-jointed shoulders of those old Titan fans in the balcony, so it must not be quite right!     Good try, old chap.

And, yes, we are hoping to "rock the CCIW" the rest of the way . . . as usual.

Regarding my attendance at Carthage post. Last year's IWU/Carthage game at Kenosha drew 2,025. Carthage won and the crowd was electric. IWU stat: Through 20 games, IWU has attempted 1,156 FGs of which 477, or 41.2% have been 3-point shots. The 3-point shot, introduced in the 86/87 season, has resulted, especially in D3, in many coaches recruiting shooters first and post players second. How many D3 teams start 3 guards now compared to the 86/87 season? Giovanine seemed to place the blame on the NPU loss on his perimeter players who couldn't shoot the 3. That's a familiar scenario, for good and bad D3 teams. We win if the 3s are falling and lose if they aren't is a common refrain.

Congratulations to Juwan Henry on CCIW Player of the Week honors.  A truly amazing week for him in CCIW play.  Fun to watch.  Right up there with Jordan Nelson and his 3 bombs from the rafters and Dylan Overstreet running all over the floor with the ball, going virtually everywhere he wants to go.  Also great fun to watch.
