Always with fries.

Is this a special occasion sort of thing or routine in the restaurant or truck?

Or that he isn’t looking for a job. I’m not tight with the coaching world, but the few people I do know say he is well thought of at least as an assistant. My take is that if he really wanted to go back to work, he could very easily. Maybe not exactly where and on the level he wants, but he...

No stopping progress. 🙁

Glad I got some of the younger generation in my clan there a couple of times this year. Great memories of games and college. Another data point demonstrating how old I’m getting.🙁

High entertainment value. One of my former students went to St. Leo's and didn't know they had a basketball team.

Somehow, I see a boost in season ticket prices following this, whether we get another home game or not.

The name is all over Rome. He must have deep roots.

If I were an Iowa fan with all those good shooters and offense and lose so many games because of crappy defense, I couldn’t handle it. It’s like an MLB lineup that scores seven runs a game and gives up 11. Great to the hits but infuriating to see high school pitchers in the majors.

Let’s hope that doesn’t turn into Iowa 2.0.

I almost took the bait.😉

I figured he would be closer to the “big” category than most of the others and that’s the thinnest part of the roster depth wise.
