   62-59 in OT, and then there was just one unbeaten team, #3 ranked Wichita State. B.C. was a whopping 6-19 overall before the game, vs. 25-0 Syracuse.

   PGA Event Advice 1 2

   So, this will be my first trip to a PGA event. What should we do? We've got access to the Palisades Club overlooking the 10th green and grounds access. I feel like picking a group and following them would be the most fun. What say you guys who've gone before?

    A basketball Hall of Famer, he won NIT and NCAA titles with La Salle, and an NBA championship with the old Philadelphia Warriors. A 5-time NBA All-Star. A 6'6" forward who frequently played guard for La Salle, he collected an astounding 2,201 rebounds, an NCAA career record which stands to this day. He coached for La Salle and later went into politics. Tom Gola died on January 26th at the age of 81. He never recovered from a bad fall 11 years ago. http://articles.philly.com/2014-01-28/news/46690573_1_ken-loeffler-tom-gola-ncaa

    I finally made it over there for the first time today. It is by Costco and all the Furniture Stores off of Technology, between Alton and Barranca. I bought the 1 year Club Membership Plus for $100. Pretty sweet deal... http://www.pgatoursuperstore.com/players_club.jsp Access to the practice center everyday for 30 minutes. It's got the video simulator and feedback deal. Was chatting with some dude who was hitting balls and he said during the week it is slow and he'll hit for a couple of hours.

    One interesting debut takes place tonight for UCI against Fresno St. at UCI's Bren Center: 7-6 freshman Mamadou Ndiaye (Brethren Christian HS in Orange County), who already weighs close to 290 pounds, can touch 3 inches above the rim while standing still, and has decent agility for his size. He's also going to be coached by a former NBA asst. coach in his 4th season at UCI (head coach Russell Turner), who is developing a rep for coaching big men.

    4 top names Jimbo Fisher- FSU is tapped out financially now after his new extension. Its possible. Malzahn- Dont think he leaves Harbaugh (Jim)- why would he leave his super bowl caliber team(s)? I think he passes Urban Meyer- idk why he would leave? These top 4 dont need Texas. Texas needs them I think they get none of those guys. My prediction is Les Miles or Mike Gundy i mean he is a man and he's over 40 now

    List teams, good players you have, brag about pick ups, mention the players on your team that are shit, complain about how the dude you played got x amount of points from his last player to beat you. Drafting strategies and weekly player plays or benches or highly encouraged.
