Message: [QUOTE="Dillon77, post: 3476327, member: 6620"] In regards to that "Big Ten" reference, a colleague or two from "The Bench" also brought it up and one thought it referred to a "B1G" type of player vs. Big Ten type of play. In either case, I get your point. Her Miami (of Ohio) team was predicated on pushing the ball up and all the players she inhertited at Marquette were recruited with going up and down the court, as well. Maybe she means getting an aircraft carrier* like Hallie Thome was for Michigan, who played there Duffy when was an assistant coach? (She just recruited a very tall center from Denmark?) As for Boyle, "cratered" has a bit more explosive element to it, while I was thinking she just kinda ran out of gas and slid into the earth. :rolleyes: In any case, you'll see a few older posts of mine around here questioning whether it was time to find someone other than Ms. Boyle who could get the Hoo's off the ground again. So we're in agreement there. However, I'm really not certain WNBA legend Ms. Thompson has the appropriate pilot tools for this mission. I'll be watching her next season. * Since Megan Duffy is at Marquette, I had to use Al McGuire's beloved term for a center. Maybe Jerome Whitehead has a granddaughter or niece? ;) [/QUOTE]
