The Daily Paragraph 2/22/2007 (Tribute Edition)
CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. -- Before we get too wrapped up in Championship Week this and NCAA Tournament that, in seeding whichever and Billy Packer whatever, I'd like to take time out to offer a small tribute to some special people.
MMBOD Dec 21 - Matt Murrer - Virginia Military Institute
Something's been missing from VMI basketball in recent years, and it's not the strategically-placed letters "O" and "T." It's been "W"'s - take last season, for example, when they win three out of 16 conference games. But there's a new sheriff in town (former Virginia policeman Duggar Baucom), and he's got his troops on a five-game win streak.
MMBOW #13 - Seamus Boxley, Portland State
At the start of the season, folks thought the Big Sky conference would play out as usual - last year's Dancers Eastern Washington, traditional powerhouse Weber State, maybe one of the Montana schools would be in the mix. Nobody - and I mean nobody - saw Portland State coming. A big reason for PSU's surprise surge is the increasingly hands-down Big Sky Player Of The Year.
The State Of The Other 22, Week 5
EMMITSBURG, Md. -- All three Ballys from Finals Week were sent out by The Official Wife yesterday, and the two from earlier contests are on their way as well. Still heartbroken that you didn't get one? Well, here's your chance.
Game! Of! The! Night! 11/12/2007 - Appalachian State at Charlotte
Appalachian State's cagers will open their 2007-08 campaign tonight, and they do so on what some might refer to as "a mission." Sweet memories of San Juan wins in December 2006 (Virginia, Vanderbilt) were tempered somewhat by what some referred to as an NCAA snub, and this time around all anyone's talking about is how wonderful Davidson is. So motivation won't be an issue.
