  • Interesting Georgetown/UNI matchup



    I can't say that I knew half of that info. Very good digs, but questionably wrestling comment.
    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 wouldn't say UNI is a wrestling school first, because I'm not sure anywhere is a wrestling school first, but I would agree wrestling is the most accomplished program. A national championship and many many top 20 finishes in division 1.

        Iowa has definitely been a wrestling team first. Even they they suck now. That is where there most success has came from BY FAR. I get your point though.

          I seem to remember Robert Waller going off against big money NCAA athletics, even though he was a former college athlete himself, and a business professor (not usually the socialist/liberal type). He was definitley unique, but that probably explains why he had a talent for writing. To my knowledge he hasn't published anything in years - do people still remember him or talk about him on campus?

            "We're not an ordinary school," said Fort. "We have tradition. We have a good team year after year. We rebuild, and it doesn't matter who we have coming back."

              Pullin' out an old school thread here.

              So I look up Robert James Waller (UNI Graduate/Author/UNI Professor/Former DEAN of the Business School/UNI Athlete, etc) and I find this "He made a "seven figure" donation to Indiana University.[2]"



              Explore Indiana University Bloomington—a leading public research university advancing discovery, developing leaders, and driving worldwide impact.


              Interesting. Would have been nice to get that donation.

                It is an estate gift, so UNI might also be named in his estate and it has not been made public yet.

                  Wow, Puerto Vallarta Squeeze was made into a motion picture? I missed that one somehow.

                  He's free to do whatever he wants with his money, but I'd be surprised and disappointed if he hasn't/doesn't do something for UNI as well.
