Great Column By Hertzel

I hope and pray that Pat is OK.

Now is the time boys to make a big noise.
No matter what the people say,
For there is naught to fear, the gang's all here,
So hail West Virginia, hail.

I'm assuming you mean the one about PW

Yeah....

…also, Antoni’s season wrap-up, Looking Back; Moving Forward, was worth reading. Stewart’s analysis of the three plays that altered the outcome was accurate. I am still peeved about Devine only getting 5 touches in the second half, but what’s done is done. On to the Final Four!
