Yes, interesting stuff on both Ian Cooke and the Butler Coach/Program. Coach Penders pretty much feels the Butler program is possibly in a similar state as the UConn program was when they were playing at the field at J.O. Christian ballpark.

For a team that most of us have been critical of, 17 BE 2.0 wins for the first time is very impressive!
