My wife and I had a great time talking to him at the class of 89 reunion event after the Cats squeaked out the OT win against EIU.

He recounted being speechless in the studio after the Jordan Westerkamp Hail Mary. I just about threw myself out of the window after that one.

About 20 576 Lincoln/NU Alums were in the 3rd thru 5th rows at the 5 yard line for that play at Nebraska. Ugh.

Hey Matt,

In your article you list several portal players NU reached out to, but only 1 hasn't committed somewhere else.
I can see where a week ago SI.com stated that NU was one of 4 schools who had contacted Duke Brennan of Grand Canyon, the 6'10" center...
There is a more recent tweet listing about 20 schools who Brennan says have contacted him.
He's got official visits with Stanford, Villanova and Iowa.
Various sources are listing him as a junior - which would be problematic for NU admissions.

I knew you'd object in some way to something that is obvious to everyone else.

NU's campus and location on Lake Michigan near Chicago is far more appealing than Purdue's campus near the Wabash river in the middle of nowhere. This is where the players will live - and, because they are youthful human beings, the vast majority will prefer NU.

An advantage for Collins in recruiting, whether you admit it or not.

Ha - an advantage that is immaterial and irrelevant is not an advantage! We have better musicians and actors - is that an advantage?

Painter has a history of putting players in the NBA and making deep runs in the tournament. I don't think Evanston really trumps that play.

Up until last year, Painter had a history of getting upset in the tournament more than going deep. Not a lot of Purdue players in the pro’s. Edey, Ivey and ? I may be forgetting some others.

But he’s a very good coach and the program does a great job of retaining and developing players. The appeal next year is that you are joining an already very, very good team. Chance to play in a Final Four.

The beauty of our campus? Which basketball player makes his determination based on that?
