I follow the swimming and track results.

Who else has a little extra spring in their step today knowing basketball practice starts today? I don't know, maybe it is because it is Friday, or that the first game is only a couple weeks away, or maybe it is because i started drinking early this morning? Who knows, but it is a great day! Go Billikens!

Great crowd too. I think there were about 2100.

Sure this might be primarily a basketball board, but last time I read, the header reads Billikens.com and not Billikenhoops.com. Hopefully even the soccer haters support all the Billikens.

I'm guessing that Biondi and the search committee checked out May's references and qualifications prior to making the hire.

Thank you. I've sent them an e-mail.

Does anyone know of a place that sells Billiken cycling jerseys? Preferrably on-line? Thanks in advance,

Has anyone else notice the name of one of the boats on "The Deadliest Catch" is named "Billikens". Sorry if this has been posted before, but I just caught that this weeekend.

I agree that this is a great feature. A lot of AD's wouldn't take the time to field questions from fans.

Does anyone know if Fathead is putting out any Billikens products? There is a company called College Wallstars that does the same thing in Iowa (for Iowa State, Iowa, and Northern Iowa) and would be willing to create some for SLU. We just need to show some interest and they will create something. http://www.collegewallstars.com/iowa-state...es-wallstars-2/ http://www.collegewallstars.com/contact-us/

Thank you for the update on Bridgette. I'm glad to hear she is improving a little all the time.

I think the hope is that there will be new banners in the new building.

This might not be a popular piece of information, but aren't all scholarships 1 year agreements that have to be renewed every year. The players know this going in.

Doesn't the new AD have ties to those parts? I thought I read that he was a graduate of Iowa State.

hey Bills16, where in NorthCentral Iowa are you?

You must not know many KU fans. I would much rather watch Self build and sustain a program at OSU than Kansas. Oklahoma State fans are pretty good fans. KU fans don't compare.

Andy Katz is reporting a rumor that T. Boone Pickens is preparing to offer a bunch of money to Bill Self to come back to his alma mater. This rumor first came to pass back in January, and was gaining some momentum around the Big XII tournament.

That is a great win for the Bills. Hopefully they can build on that.

Liz Phair is pretty easy on the eyes.

Hey Steve, Happy B-day

While we are at it, why not put the benches underneath the baskets like at Vanderbilt.

Considering we don't practice in the arena that we play our home games in, it would seem to me that everygame would be "a road game".

I'm an Indiana fan, and think Bobby Knight was great. That said, they are getting what was coming to them in hiring Sampson and getting rid of Davis. With the team they have, there is no way they would volunteer to sit out the tourney. Just my $.02.

Anyone would have looked better than Pitino. That was awful. Nice win for the Billikens today.

Thanks. I'm kind of an old fart myself, but I'm finding it a great way for me to figure out where people are. I think Facebook used to be only for very young people, but it seems to be changing a bit.
