I Am Proud of My Golden Hurricanes

[guido911]

I know they lost today, but they had a heck of a final push in the C-USA tournament. Any other grads out there want to give a shout???

[FOTD]

Yes. I've watched very little college B ball so far. But our Jamaican center, who has been playing only 2 years, may well be the most improved and impressive player I have seen come along at TU in a long long time and a reflection of good coaching. Looking forward to next year! Yah Mon!

Then I assume I will see you Wednesday night at the Reynolds Center as the Tulsa Golden Hurricane take on Miami(OH) in the first round of the inaugural College Basketball Invitational.

Tickets are as cheap as $5.

Be there!

I see Memphis is a #1 seed in the NCAA, so that's a respectible loss for Tulsa, if there is such a thing as a respectible loss.

33-1, 42nd or 43rd straight C-USA victory for Memphis.  Quite an opponent.

really not sure why Memphis is in this conf....it is so lopsided.  Memphis should be in the SEC or some other heavy hitter conf.

Clearly you're not a football fan. []

If it is a 6pm game, I am in...8pm will not do for me because of a meeting conflict.

Looks like you will be missing the game RM. They announced the tip-off time will be 7:05.

You betcha. I will be the guy rooting for the Golden Hurricanes to win...I should be easy to spot.

Point of order:

Golden Hurricane.

No "s" as our team is a singular entity not a collection of individuals.  One of a handful of Division I schools with a singular name.

As an alum, I should be beaten for this blasphemy, if not outright excommunicated. Oh well, I can always be a Stanford Cardinals' fan.

I can only think of a few.  Marshall Thundering Herd, Tulane Green Wave, North Texas Mean Green, Alabama Crimson Tide, Notre Dame Fighting Irish, Syracuse Oragemen,and Illinois FIghting Illini.  Any others??

EDIT: after looking it up, I left out the Nevada Wolf Pack, Navy Midshipmen, and the North Carolina St wolfpack.

The Stanford Cardinals' bit was a joke.
