Re: Up Next: North Carolina

I think Newby was referring to the players at NC. I'm not quite sure what you were saying in that context dad.

Reread the post. Never mind. Thanks Gonzo for the clarification.

Glad that the Heels won tonight. They didn't look good until the last few minutes of the first half when they went into halftime on a 13-1 run. Fortunately they played a decent second half to win somewhat comfortably. It certainly is strange to be rooting for them.

Funny that they played one Purple Cats team tonight and another tomorrow.

Re: Up Next: North Carolina

They were not. That section was blocked off for a "private party" apparently, the bleachers were folded in and they had tables set up.

Interesting, never seen them do that for a big game. I wish they would do something different up there long term though. It's a great view of the court from up there but those bleacher seats suck.

Do you think we would have gotten the game in McLeod if UNC hadn't been playing in the Kansas City tournament?

A little late to the party, but I just wanted to drop in and congratulate you guys on the huge win this weekend. Washpun's dunk was ridiculous--UNC learned what Shocker fans have known for awhile: that he's an incredible athlete.

Anyway, I think I'm speaking for many Shocker fans, if not most, when I say it's great to have a worthy adversary and rival in this conference that we don't absolutely hate. Lots of respect for your program because you guys represent the conference so well on and off the court. Looking forward to our games this year. Best of luck until then!

I could be wrong but I think that will be the panther (booze) patio now.

No, the Panther Patio is on the east side upper area - across from west side suites.

Nicely said Rocky Mountain.... Looking forward to the WSU games... I'm hoping for 3 games this year.

Yes... I don't think Roy said: "Hey, we're going to be in KC anyway, lets just make a trip to Cedar Falls."

UNC wanted a game close to Cedar Rapids for Paige. They already played ISU and Iowa the last 2 seasons, plus he probably figured it would be an easier game in the McLeod than going to Hilton or Carver, and UNI is a decent game/challenge unlike D+ which does nothing for their non-con SOS/RPI. I'm guessing it just happened to work out that both schools had an open date that coincided with UNC heading to KC right after - I doubt that not having it match-up with UNC's trip to KC would have been a deal breaker.

Rima asks Jake about the T. I love this coach.

Stayed in the home of KU fans last week (in-laws). They certainly hate having lost to UNI and WSU in the NCAA tournament!

I hope you wore appropriate UNI shirts all week.

We were there to cheer our daughter who was diving for UNI in the KU Invitational. We even "guilted" the in-laws (KU basketball season ticket holders) into wearing UNI shirts to the pool (which was right across the street from the Allen Fieldhouse). They even wore the UNI shirts as they showed us the KU basketball museum. We got lots of pictures without them recognizing what was happening.

It felt great!

Hopefully that firmly establishes me as a true UNI fan!
