    Now THAT I take offense to. Please don't ever compare Dayton fans with Cardinal fans (albeit they are very knowledgeable fans). The difference is Dayton fans say that in defense, whereas STL fans make it a point to let you know. Dayton fans, as a general rule of thumb, are typically known to be...

    I'll have to look a bit closer Very good memory! '66 season but 1967. That's the year they faced Alcindor and UCLA in the finals. That was UCLAs first of the streak.

    Funny you ask. That's actually a hot topic right now on our board. Dayton and Xavier were fairly even in recruiting over the years until they moved to the Big East. We would compete often for the same recruits with their winning 3/5 probably due to their recent success (prior to the BE). Now...

    I sincerely apologize. I think I looked that up once and saw it was NU and somewhere got lost and put NWU. Us fans at UD can definitely appreciate the frustration that can cause as we're sometimes referred to as DU. @DaCat-- More than likely Mrs. Miller was having her Miller High Life at the...

    Got it-- I just really didn't understand the context. Likewise-- I know that all of us over on the Red & Blue Forum welcome other fans from schools that don't begin with the letter X. Stop by anytime to discuss.

    I guess I just don't understand what he meant by Final Four... That we were going to it? That we've been? That NWU has never been? I just don't get it... o_O

    I apologize as the lol was referring to the guy being an idiot and saying those things. Didn't realize how that could be taken differently. I was saying I wasn't that guy in case my question came across as defensive. I'm still curious as to what part was factually incorrect. What's the Duke...

    I certainly wasn't that guy nor do I ever taunt lol but which part was factually incorrect?

    That's a misleading stat if you take a look at our FT game by game. There are some games where we shot lower 30s and upper 20s and some that bring that average down when only shooting about 10. Regardless, I'm not talking about only shooting fouls which aren't going to show up in FTs unless...

    Thanks for the reply. In our view, Dayton was driving to the hole quite a bit and being very aggressive. Probably, in the hopes of getting fouled and getting your big men in trouble. Those calls are typically made and that's where the frustration lied for our fans, I believe. Additionally...

    Unfortunately, I don't have the quote from Jay Bilas as it was on TV. I'll see if I can find something though. It was along the lines of "...one of the most passionate and educated fan bases you'll ever come across."

    Also-- just as a quick side note-- I noticed there was quite a bit of whining on the second-half thread about the refs. Dare I say there was whining on both sides influenced by their teams being in danger of losing the game? :)

    I was at the game and I have to interject here. I'm a UD fan and one of the "whiners" in the stands. Dayton fans have been, for a long time, regarded as a very educated fan base by analysts/color commentators at the games. While Dayton fans were wining quite a bit at the UC the other night, not...
