    I've provided a clickable link under the "Media" section of the scouting report.

      I think you guys should enjoy our announcers if you do tap into the free feed. Russ Eisenstein grew up on the MVC and is a graduate of Southern Illinois and worked at both SIU and Illinois State. He'll know quite a bit about your squad and unlike many announcers won't focus totally on Ohio. He and Rob Cornelius, our color guy, do an excellent job IMO.

        Seriously...who are these people?? These Ohio fans are great. Actually giving useful information and conversation, and I haven't seen any 12-year old-like personal attacks. Can we play Ohio every week?

          The Ohio fans have said a lot of the same about us on their board.

              Makes message boards so much more enjoyable.
              "...the Northern Iowa men's basketball team reached the ultimate highs before hitting a devastating low. Unexpected success, followed by unimaginable failure. And they owned it -- all of it -- for the world to see. Like men. Like leaders. Like champions -- in a way no tournament bracket could ever define."

                Oh yeah, well you're a doodie head. Sorry its been so long since I was 12 thats the best I could come up with.

                In all seriousness, I've always enjoyed watching UNI basketball from afar. My brother (a Dayton alum) and I went to a tournament in Las Vegas they used to hold at Valley High School back in 05. The panthers beat Dayton pretty good if I remember right. Met some very nice fans. Ohio has a lot of good fans, but as with every fan base, we have some ... lets just say unique individuals haha.

                As far as the game goes, I think it will be a very good one. It's going to be weird without seeing the seniors from last year, especially our PG. If he didn't start every game since he walked on campus it was close. I for one am glad we're starting with a quality opponent. This game will give us a much better idea of where we stand as a team than if we played a D2 school like a lot of our conference mates are.

                On a side note, if I remember correctly, Ohio hosted Northern Iowa (and lost) in the first night game at our stadium back in 1999.

                Good luck tomorrow.

                  I would absolutely love to play Ohio in football again, but I just don't think the financial side would work...

                  There are a bunch of us around here that are still hoping that MAC Football is a part of our future. The FCS level just isn't sustainable...

                    Eagle- I was there with the roughly 200 other fans of UNI, Dayton, LSU, and Cincinnati! Crazy tourney setup.
                    The Lord reigns, let the earth be glad; let the distant shores rejoice, clouds and thick darkness surround Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne. Fire goes before Him, and consumes his foes on every side; His lightning lights up the world; the earth sees and trembles; the mountains melt like wax before the Lord of all the earth. The heavens proclaim His righteousness and all peoples will see His glory.

                      I was there too. I think Oldcat and me were the only UNI fans that paid the $75 per game or whatever to get in. Everbody else was on the pass list. Jimmie Binnie was playing for Dayton at the time.

                        Regardless of how the game turns out tommarrow... Ohio University has one solid basketball program we should play every year. Signing a deal like we did with George Mason would be a win-win for both schools. Well... kind of

                          If I remember correctly, the last time we played Ohio, we had just played a game the night before and maybe three people had the stomach flu.

                            Correct. They were a super late add and we were desperate to add another decent game. Played Loras the night before and Jake Koch didn't play because he was so sick, didn't even stay in the arena.

                              Actually, I heard from a reliable source in the athletic department that our nonconference options to replace Savannah State last year were:

                              A D2 team (we ended up playing Central State) in the Dome,
                              a game at Boise State,
                              or paying quite a bit of $$$ to have a MAC school come to the Dome.

                              Ended up going the D2 route over Boise because we were already playing Wisconsin and Iowa. Went D2 over hosting a MAC school because we would have used all our payout from Wisconsin and Iowa to bring in a MAC school.
