WBB: College Conference of Illinois and Wisconsin

[Gregory Sager]

oh ok i have been rebutted damn spent the whole day on here i need to go make money to pay for my kids school.  The hope and amherst fan is sitting here and saying what are you guys going on and on about we will destroy all of you.

Yikes, this Hope (and Amherst) fan learned the hard way not to assume any win will come easy especially with this crowd.  Last games against RHIT were nail biters down to the wire; IWU nearly gave me a heart attack last time we played; CCIW has always been tough including a number of Wheaton games and even remembering back maybe 7-8 years when Carthage knocked Hope out of the NCAA tournament.

Roundball999, as I was typing my last post I thought to myself that you were definitely the first finger I would expect to be counted when it comes to Hope fans perusing this board.

[Jester1390]

lol just pushing buttons. actually that was a dig at IWU fans i had a person who  i probably shouldn't mention make that comment to me that in the past when Iwu won there was nothing but posts about the victory'

Interesting random fact that show's i have no life  of all the regions on here. these are your top 3 oldest that have not had a post  not including a Dave OR PAT POST.

3. Region 6 posted by Ralph Turner in the Gsac in march of 2016
2. Region 4 in the NJAC posted in Mrc 2014

and the Grand prize winner
in Region 4 come on people on east coast get with it.   in the United East conference July 18 2011


on a side note there was only 10 pages on the HCAC page when i made my first appearance to chagrin of some  with this beautifully written message that now has led to 51 pages with still basically 4 of us lol

Engineer my daughter is going to play for rose can you tell me about the other teams in the conference far as who has nice gyms and cities to visit

[GoPerry]

So let me see rose stays with north park except a stretch in the 3rd when 3 starters are on the bench due to foul trouble and the foul calls heavily in npu favor

Sigh. Here we go ...

Haha . . I commend you Greg.  There we so many things to rebut I wasn't sure if you would have the time to do it (or the patience to decipher the run-on sentences, tbh).  But you came through.  Nice!

Few things in the world of basketball irritate me more than a fan complaining about foul disparities.

Uhh . .  '70 posting about IWU intramural floor hockey on the CCIW women's basketball board?

I never told you to go back to the HCAC board, and I never will. It's not my place to do so. The board doesn't belong to me, it belongs to Pat Coleman. As far as he's concerned, and therefore as far as I am, too, this board is open to anybody who doesn't violate the terms of service. I mean, I don't entirely get why you're here to post about a team that isn't in the league and is in the CCIW's rear-view mirror now that it's played the three CCIW teams it was scheduled to play, but hey -- if you just want to post stuff about your daughter's team and you can hear the crickets chirping in the HCAC women's basketball board, and you're looking to get some eyes on your posts, we're not here to stop you. Knock yourself out.

Sure, fine.  But can we at least try to keep it to women's basketball??

[Jester1390]

Greg the hope comment was me poking fun at us.  I thought my answer to engine was very thoughtful though and was legit not goofing around and i still  i think got smited.  One thing the announcers this weekend brought up they thought the best state for youth womans basketball was Illinois and not Indiana but here i do have experience at least 4 years ago when i stopped coaching when the kid went to college. I couldnt say 100 percent for individual even though im from Paige Bueckers era of extremely strong Minnesota girls.  It would be hard to rank between the 4 states of Iowa and Minnesota and Illinois I do think Indiana is behind those 3 states they might have better depth then Iowa but the all iowa attack teams were the real deal of course like i said been out of the picture for awhile so things might have changed but you would be a fool not to recruit from the Midwest

Hey! That's my job!

i had a person who  i probably shouldn't mention make that comment to me that in the past when Iwu won there was nothing but posts about the victory'

Pfffft, that's nothing. It doesn't take a Titans win for that to happen. Trust me, the d3boards.com community has learned more about IWU opera singers and the IWU pep band than it ever cared to. I suspect that there's some sort of Illinois Wesleyan PR slush fund that pays iwu70 by the post.

Y'know, speaking of slush funds and posting, Rog is an enterprising guy with some time on his hands and a taste for the offbeat. He might be open to posting on the HCAC board on a regular basis to get discussions going if RHIT or some other interested member school in the conference wanted to slip him some side money.

It wasn't me. I'm a lover, not a smiter.

No argument from me. I will say this, though -- there is nothing like Indiana high-school basketball. The Hoosiers syndrome is alive and well. Two of my nephews start for their school's team in Indiana, and I had the privilege to witness their season opener last Tuesday when I was at my sister's house for Thanksgiving. It seemed like the entire town was in the stands, and, just like in the movie there were old kibitzers sitting behind me who were talking about the team like it was life or death. I told the older of my two nephews, who is expected to be his team's biggest weapon this season, that I was going to start calling him "Jimmy Chitwood". Fortunately, he's such a basketball junkie that he's seen the movie and laughed at that.

I would accept only Bolivian currency.
But if I wrote too much about the HCAC, I'd worry about getting irritable vowel syndrome.

Reminds me of my favorite sports nickname - there was an All-American basketball player(Bob Mlkvy) in the '50s @ Temple University in Philly. He was known as the Owl without a vowel.

Here he is :

The same site shows a Bob, but he played for Penn.
They may have been related!

Yikes, this Hope (and Amherst) fan learned the hard way not to assume any win will come easy especially with this crowd.  Last games against RHIT were nail biters down to the wire; IWU nearly gave me a heart attack last time we played; CCIW has always been tough including a number of Wheaton games and even remembering back maybe 7-8 years when Carthage knocked Hope out of the NCAA tournament.

Roundball999, as I was typing my last post I thought to myself that you were definitely the first finger I would expect to be counted when it comes to Hope fans perusing this board.

Yup, I like to follow boards around the region.  I always support regional teams (except when playing the Dutch), it's interesting to know something about the teams you might meet in noncon or postseason and of course you always want the strength of schedule and regional ranking benefits!  In any event, here's best wishes for a great season for all, health to the young ladies, and hopefully a complete season!

Thanks! Not to be self-aggrandizing or anything, but I think I should get extra credit for doing it while Pat's software was on the fritz.

Whoops. Did I just get caught talking about Indiana boys high-school basketball? Perhaps I need to follow up my self-aggrandizement with some self-flagellation:

I guess I remembered incorrectly that his name was Bob; change it to Bill. Looks like he had 1 great year(JR).

I'd trade you my bolivianos for your dollars received, but a rogue llama ate all of my bolivianos. Fortunately, he's been apprehended ...



... although it's too late to do anything about the pilfered currency.

Regardless if he's Bill or Bob, "the Owl without a vowel" is a fantastic nickname.

Hear, hear!

My congrats also to Lauren Huber on Player of the Week honors.  She had a tremendous tournament at The Shirk, scoring 52 points in two games . . . all in a losing effort.  Along with the other talented freshmen, Huber bodes well for IWU's future.  Surely not this year . . .

Greg, we cleaned up that chewing gum on the library plaza long long ago . . . your news is old news.  Your back and forth with Jester was just boring . . . sorry.  He must really have too much time on his hands.

IWU will not beat NPU this year on the women's side.  Or MU or Wheaton for that matter, either.   It's going to be a tough, long year for the Titans.  I'll be surprised if the Titans finish anywhere near .500.

Happy holidays to all the chatsters . . . good cheer and lovely Christmas music to you all . . .

IWU'70

[Jester1390]

I am assuming IWU is not a motivational speaker for the woman's basketball team.

[Gregory Sager]

Ah, he's just giving us the Lou Holtz treatment to set us up.
