Now they lose to Wright State every year and get blown out at home by NKU.

It doesn’t appear that they care about sports any more. Who can blame them?

They care enough about football to contend for a championship this weekend.

They call themselves the Public Ivy, and well, the Ivy League schools are demonstrating they care very much about men's basketball these days.

I don't disagree with your sentiment, but WSU and NKU are solid teams. They finish at or near the top of the Horizon year after year and (sadly) would both be teams in the top half of the MAC.

Neither one of those are bad losses for Fiami - especially on the road.

The point is those commuter school programs have passed Miami. There are six D1 schools in the SW Ohio region and they are clearly the worst.

I'm old enough to remember! And, it felt real good. Hope we do it again in my lifetime! ;-)

We don't know exactly how old. A logging crew cut down the tree that had a notch carved into it every year on his birthday. Or am I thinking of Dikembe Mutombo?
