    Shon Morris....

    This is a ridiculous post, of course Shon Morris does not have any eligibility left! However, I believe both Jim Stack and Evan Eschmeyer have one year remaining.

    So, who wants to start a WR NCAA Pool?

    Yes, I know it's a UK avatar. My undergrad degree is from Kentucky, but I've been following NU football and basketball for over 40 years. I worked there a few years and was a football season ticket holder and still attend two to three games a year. Although I rarely post, I'm on the football...

    3-Man Pass Rush

    I'm from the area and am a UK grad '84 so the avatar related more to my time on their board. I've been an NU fan since the dark ages. Both parents are NU alumni and I worked there for three years. My mother and great aunt had over 50 years of service to the university.

    NU v. UK Prediction Thread

    I come from a unique perspective in that I'm probably the only one that has watched the games for both teams. I'm a UK grad '84, but have been a Northwestern fan since I was young. I had a feeling they would eventually play each other, but I didn't think it was going to be this year based on...

    Midvale Dave is ill and needs our help

    I posted more in the past but rarely do so now. Dave was one of the few on this board that I met in person. He was very generous and give me an extra ticket to a game. I really enjoyed hanging out with and talking Cats football for a couple hours. I will continue to pray for him.

    I think Benson's hair should get it's own uniform number.
