North Carolina has spent last 100+ years appropriating flight culture, to the point they put in on their license plates. One of the most offensive acts this country has ever seen. Stand with Daytonians and demand they rectify this multigenerational wrong.
If not today, when!?

I dont think there's a more accurate way to describe this season. Boy knows ball.
In case you are wondering how Dayton (and UNC) basketball fans are feeling about this season:
It is currently cheaper to buy a ticket to Duke at UNC on Feb 8th than it is to buy a ticket to SLU at UD the same day.
If you follow me for non-Dayton reasons:
Top 10 on Monday
<30% chance to lose a game for a month
Favorite in every game the rest of the year.
I shall be insufferable, sorry not sorry.
Mute me now, or forever hold your peace

I've ripped AG plenty the last two weeks. Leading at half time after pulling the biggest upset in 40 years when you could have come out flat as the Kansas plains deserves credit.
Dayton scored 8 points in the last 11 minutes.
For a team “returning everyone” and being preseason Top 25, I’m not sure a single player has gotten better, and some have gotten worse
Me: I know I was just in Vegas, then Indianapolis for the Sweet 16 and Elite 8, but I booked a 4 day trip to Atlanta bc Dayton made the Final 4
Mrs Nate:
Grant has 11 Ken Pom 200+ Losses in 5 seasons
Archie had 3 in 6 seasons
Brian Gregory had 3 in 8 seasons
Grant has 5 Ken Pom Top 50 win
Archie had 20
Brian Gregory had 25
My word
This sounds insane to type, but the most relevant thing for Dayton the rest of the year isn’t if they’re rated 3 or 4 or if they’re seeded 1 or 2...
This seasons has more hinging on who’s opposite then in the 7/10 or 8/9
Love is hearing,
"How about this, I'll drop you off at the bar across from Target and you can have a some beer, a pickleback and watch the Browns while I shop."

Whats lost in all this Antonio Calloway stuff is Grossi actually breaking a story. It took you 7 years, but I finally have to eat crow Tone. Congratulations on all your success.
Kavanaughty - out for a year
Pierre - out for a semester
Robinson and Scott were kicked off the team, they play 6 scholly player + a walk on, all shorter than me
Big Steve fucking died

My point is you can’t judge Archie and Grant without context. No season is perfect but Grant has dealt with significant injuries and youth the last two seasons. Not to mention his own personal losses this past summer.
We had to say goodbye to our good buddy today. When we went to adopt Luke we were asked if we’d heard of a little lake outside of Eaton where we would go meet him. Lakengren?? Yea, weve been there before. Cathy…
“The outside world might see Dayton and think of it as just a mid-major program that makes some noise from time to time — but they don’t really get it. Dayton is a town that lives basketball.”
Gonna be awhile til we get over March 2020
Today when my girls came downstairs, they said, “Daddy is the big bad orangeman finally gone??”
“Yes he is!”
“And there’s gonna be a woman as a VP!?!??”
“Yes, and she’s also a woman of color!!”
“Daddy, we’re so hopeful!! Can we dance to Paula Abduls Promise Of A New Day!?!!”
Bought a tux in my 20s (~15 years ago). As

Went to a tailor and had the jacket and pants taken IN today.

I went from ranting at DeWine on Wednesday to accepting we’re probably doing the right things.
If (when?) some of these things flatten the curve the “it’s just the flu, no big deal” people taking a victory lap will infuriate me as much as anti-vaxers.
As ardent supporter of The Pine Club, I will not stand for Midwest steakhouse slander. And it’s $52.95 for the best steak in the Midwest and

in the country.
Assuming Dayton doesn’t win the A10 tournament Anthony Grant will have gone to 4 tournaments in his 18 yr career with 1 win.
Prior to him Dayton was 8/18 with 6 wins in the last 18 years
He isn’t even meeting recent program standards

Me at 230pm to Mom in Dayton: “prices are dropping I can get them now”
Mom: I have to teach at UD at 8am tomorrow, and not sure I can there in time
Me: you can if you leave RIGHT NOW.
Mom still taught at 8am the next day in her jersey
When Baker does to Grossi for the first time what he did to Cowherd today, I'm going to buy a TV, put it in my house and have the video on repeat 24/7. Like some ppl have a fish tank or fire on a tv.
Fun facts of the day:
Dayton is now 3-4 for the second time under AG. Last time that happens at all?? Purnells first year.
AG has now blown 13 double digit leads and done it 5x in the last 7 losses (14 total games)
Career double digit blown leads at Dayton, BG - 9, Archie -6.

Anthony Grant moves to 20 games under .500 while allowing a 29-7 2H run without calling TO and drew up a play for a 3 down 1.
As indefensible as losing to Fake UMass, Lipscomb and Austin Peay
In my office I have a framed pictures of Dayton and Cleveland from space. They will ALWAYS be my cities. The last 18 hours have been surreal, numbing and haunting. It’s hard to put words to. Thank goodness for Dayton police after seeing the video. Love you 937

Preparing to watch a UD game where even if they get beat by 30 it’s irrelevant to the season and if they win it could be a great spring boars is a nice change
Not a single reason for a COVID restriction by Memorial Day. You can choose to be vaccinated, you can choose to stay home, you can choose to engage in risk
Adopted a new dog ~week ago, vet records said 1-2yo and 50lbs
“He’s up to 75lbs, he’s probably only 9 months to a year. Got some muscle to put on and more filling out to do. Keep feeding him 6-7 cups a day.”
He’s not allowed on the couch but he still thinks he’s a lap dog
