Was a good game til the refs decided that Boozer was not going to commit any fouls all night.

With that stiff arm, he would make a hell of a RB

Some one up there took notes on all the good Muss did before he ever coached a game.
At the time it was pretty unheard for any of the big three coaches to attend the other sports games and if they did it was made to be not much of a big deal.

New football coaches coming to the first home hoops game is super common though. Introduced at halftime.

That’s awesome

To be introduced.
He is literally in the student section handing out free slim chickens to the students right now.
He was hyping them up outside earlier.

I like that he’s working the crowd & infusing energy. Not just a show of face.
Seems Bruce Pearlesque & as Dale said Musselmanesque

45 is still pretty young. Wonder if he likes baseball? And pain.

We really need a quality non conference win.
This is an excellent opportunity tonight.
Hopefully our shots are falling and theirs aren't.
