DMA... your thoughts???

On the real though, good game IU, but it was our year.

Okay. Time to go watch tv coverage of Terps fans turning over cars on Route 1 in College Park.

Well, it wasn't really a good game, but thanks for the kind words. Good to see some seniors have success. RACK 'EM!

Speaking of which, gotta rack my son's first legit sports idol, even if it's only because he likes his number:



And DMA, IU has nothing to be ashamed of.

There's never been a better time to be a student here.

Football team goes to a BCS Bowl.
Men's Basketball team wins the National Championship.
Women's Basketball team just hired the National Coach of the Year.
Women's Lacrosse has won 7 straight national championships.

Roller Hockey made it to the National Championship Tournament.

It's sweeeeeet.

Too bad the 'vous isn't still in operation.
What a great place to get drunk, grab tits and
vomit all over the floor.

I'd have to give the Terps the nod for having the best combined football-men's basketball programs (which, as far as I'm concerned, is college athletics) this season. The only serious contender would be Oregon. Even though the Ducks clearly had the far superior football team, Maryland gets my vote on the basis of a national championship in hoops versus an Elite Eight appearance for Oregon. And Oregon actually came into the Dance with a relatively low RPI, about 30 or so if memory serves.

The Miamuh Hurrigangstas had a chance to contend for this honor at the end of the basketball regular season, but a first round exit in the tourney killed whatever chance they might have had.

Btw, who'd've thunk we'd be talking about Maryland and Oregon as the premier college athletic programs in the country?
