    McLeod Madness

    Let's talk happy things. Haven't seen mention of this yet. McLeod Madness is Thursday night at 7pm. Doors open at six. I believe the new intro videos will be shown (the pictures I saw of the filming look sweet) and Lucas O'Rear is one of the celebrity judges for the dunk contest. There will be other activities as well as scrimmages with the men and women. Who is going?!
    "...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."

      Can we really say that Lucas O'Rear is a celebrity?

        I got an email with the title "McLeod Madness", then I opened it up and the email was actually about the soccer results. Sigh.

        But no, not making the trip from Dsm on a weeknight for this, it just another one of those things that would make it nice to live in CF.

          Well Gonzo, you do get TC's Tailgate at Jasper Winery

          We won't be going most likely since it's gymnastics night but I hope the students show up to have some fun!

            I'm hoping to go. School conferences that night and soccer practice, but both "should" be over by or around the time it starts.

              Me too...why can't they hold something like this on a Saturday night or Sunday afternoon - they'd fill the place. Somebody in charge has to realize that it's difficult for a lot of Panther fans to come out for a weeknight thing.

                        A few thoughts from tonight...

                        1. I thought the intro videos that they made for both women's and men's basketball were pretty sweet. They had rima narrate the men's video which was the better of the two in my opinion.

                        2. Jake seems pumped about this season in particular. It was neat to see the laid back interaction between jake and players.

                        3. Dunk contest was pretty sweet.

                        4. Jespersen can shoot the three.

                        That's about all I've got. It was a cool event overall.

                          Deon won the 3 pt contest...can't decide if this is a great omen or our worst nightmare. Buss didn't play, he sprained a toe earlier this week apparently. Tigges thought Knar looked very good

                            It was a nice touch to show the bloopers of the video making process as well. Jake went off script and had the crowd vote best beard between he and Tuttle. Tuttle won in a landslide. Jake and his players seem to have a cool relationship. Intro videos were awesome. Deon looks better. He's done work, physically.
